The blah sheep of the family.
Hello!Souls Weekcontinues today with a look back atDark Souls 3- a neglected classic?
Inevitably, this piece containsspoilers.
Everybody loves the original Dark souls.
And Dark Souls 3?
Or maybe I’m projecting?
And, as an added incentive to return, I realised I’d never actually played its DLC.
So here’s the thing.
And breathe it does, albeit through the ever-present stench of rot that permeates the game.
Every derelict aspect, every angle has a tale to tell.
And on it goes!
Linear the overall Dark Souls 3 journey might be, but each individual leg is anything but.
And no more is this evident than in its wonderful, wonderful bosses.
Dark Souls 3 isn’t always so brilliant.
But I shall say no more.
And when you’ve stretched a formula as far as it’ll go, where to next?
We do, of course, now know the answer to that:outwards.
Roll on Elden Ring, then, Dark Souls, but more…
