How much more you want to learn about the story and world around you will entirely depend on if you read the pages of item descriptions and speak to the various NPCs scattered across the grim landscape. The story, in typical Souls fashion, is excessively cryptic beyond that basic set-up.
You play an undead soldier known as an Unkindled Ash, bent on returning the four Lords of Cinder to their thrones. As the third in the series (fourth if we are counting Bloodborne), Dark Souls 3pulls the best aspects from its predecessors to deliver one hell of a send-off. This is Dark Souls 3, a game that demands respect from the player and is willing to strike you down hundreds of times until you understand that. My arrogance cost me several thousand souls and the fun task of starting from the nearest bonfire, but I deserved it. Rushing over, I grabbed the chest’s lid, threw it open, and it sprouted arms and devoured me on the spot. It took me ages to get this far, and when I finally stumbled upon a treasure chest, a sense of accomplishment washed over me.
(Author’s Note: While I received an advanced copy of Dark Souls 3, I wanted to test the servers out on launch before publishing this review).Īfter fighting my way through an undead cathedral, I was depleted of both health and items.
