Is the game so bad that Sony does not want the game to came in the interest of gamers? Have they made a big mistake by not promoting the game? You can read that in our review now!"
You might not be able to believe this, but Dark Souls is a pretty tricky game on the PlayStation 3.
Soulsborne games are infamously difficult. But why has that difficulty been the secret sauce to success for many of these titles in the genre?
Rewarded effort feels good.
Starting out bad at something and getting better with practice makes accomplishments meaningful.
Getting through these games feels like a journey of self improvement, lol.
You only have yourself to blame if things go poorly, but in a similar way overcoming challenge is similarly a function of your own growth.
I think because the games are fair. Gamers can tell that it’s due to their own abilities and not some BS.
I've always loved the sense of adventure and wonder in these games. There's no hand holding, there are surprises and traps everywhere and you have to figure out what some items do. Beating a heide knight was like an accomplishment for me the first time and it felt good to earn that sword he dropped. I've spent hundreds of hours in souls games ever since Kings Field on PS1. The lore is incredible and it makes you think about the history of the world you're in. I can't wait for Shadow of the Erdtree.
It's the recipe of fair difficulty, presentation, boss battles and lore that attract me to these games. The From Souls games have always had a nebulous quality to them that I find fascinating. Demystifying them is a big part of the fun.
I think its the atmosphere and gameplay. Each of these games unique ways to play and unique settings/atmospheres that are in a league of its own.
There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.
i want this game on my xbox 360 microsoft buy the developers and then close them after they put the game on my xbox 360
i want this on ps3 in europe.......
How it is so hard to get this game :(
Cheapest I can find the English-language version on Ebay (with a BIN price) is £53. Bit too steep for me right now.:(
I imported this game back in the last week of March and am I ever glad I did. Now it's hopelessly back ordered or it's selling for $80 a copy. If this isn't proof enough that North American and European PS3 owners want rpgs then truly the most clueless idiots are running the various branches of SCE. I have to believe that this game will see release both Stateside and in Europe based on the demand for the import. And if so, hopefully without dumbing down the gameplay.
