However, many of my complaints about Demon’s Souls mirror criticism about one of my favorites in the series: Dark Souls 2.įor those who don’t know, Dark Souls 2 was developed by a different team than the other Soulsborne games. Ordinarily I would just shelve a game like Demon’s Souls as “not for me,” something I recently did with Nioh after a similar amount of time.
For context, I have played Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3 in release order, plus The Surge 1 & 2 and Nioh.
I recently picked up Demon’s Souls, and after about 10 hours of play, I think I can say for sure that this is my least favorite in the series and I am unlikely to finish it.
