A flawless game even with its flaws. Tight controls, weighty combat, top notch map design and exploration, incredible story even if you have no idea what you're doing or why, unique co-op and pvp, top notch music and visual presentation, etc etc.

Everything youve ever heard good about this game is true as well as (almost) everything youve heard back about it but cmon the worse youve prolly heard is "I dont like Dark Souls". That being my gripes with this game would be its sporadic performance both hardware and netcode related. Since launch its been all mostly smoothed out but there's a chance that you may encounter issues with either or both so heads up. YMMV.

Would recommend to any and all that enjoy action/adventure/exploration games with great RPG character building. Would recommend to those that enjoy top notch production design in their games. Would also recommend to those that like a challenge and that feels you get when you FINALLY defeat said challenge. Theres VERY few games that give you that feeling and a few of them are FROM Software games like this one.

9/10
