#DARK SOULS 3 MOONLIGHT GREATSWORD PS4#

Your hub slowly fills up with NPCs, and most of them have a fair bit of information to impart about exactly how terrible the world has gotten and how it got to that point in the first place. They also put the story a little more front-and-center in this one. IвЂ™ve discovered that IвЂ™m not turned off by difficult games, but I AM turned off by difficult games that put extra hurdles between the point where youвЂ™ve died and the point where you get to try the fight again. I particularly appreciated the level design and the way rough bits were almost always followed by shortcuts, FromвЂ™s way of saying вЂњYouвЂ™ve proven you can get here on your own, you donвЂ™t have to keep proving itвЂќ and frequent bonfires kept the post-failure loop to a minimum, which is important.

I suspect that IвЂ™ll always have a soft spot for DemonвЂ™s Souls (and you can count me in with the masses slavering after a PS4 or PC version), but Dark Souls III felt like From had taken all of the good ideas from the first two games, chucked out some of the annoying ones (particularly a couple of questionable design decisions from DS2), and given it all a very shiny coat of paint. Most of the time, I just saw the вЂњyou are being invaded!вЂќ message and went to go find a bonfire to die near.Д«ut IвЂ™ll set that aside now so I can talk a little more about the game, which was brilliant. In the entire time, I only won one 1v1 invasion, and that was thanks to an invader who didnвЂ™t expect the shield-piercing lunge from the Moonlight Greatsword. Most of it was on my own terms, but I did get invaded (and generally stomped into the dirt) a few times after killing a boss put me into Ember form and made me a target. I also did a ton more multiplayer this go вЂ™round, so that added quite a bit of time to the total.

It was somewhat made up for by getting to watch enemy health bars drop in massive chunks rather than slivers, particularly once I got into the last couple of zones and unlocked the BIG nukes. It was my first attempt at playing a glass cannon, and I definitely felt brittle the entire way. I was very uncertain about what I was getting myself into back on April 10th when I decided to give DemonвЂ™s Souls a try, and I am still somewhat in awe at the notion that I managed to get through the entire series. It took me over 50 hours to grind my way through, which is apparently WAY over the curve, but IвЂ™m fine with that.
