I've still got a couple to clear off my backlog.
I've finished Bloodborne and Sekiro multiple times, have finished Demon's Souls once, and we're on our second playthrough of Elden Ring. I have not really played any of the Dark Souls, however.
DS1 was actually the first one I've ever played after watching PewDiePie play the game (holy shit, this was ages ago). I didn't really get the game and I didn't know what a soulslike is yet, so I dropped the game quite quickly after killing the Taurus Demon.
Fast forward to a couple years ago, I bought the DS collection for PS4 and started a playthrough of DS1 and DS3 which I've both played a couple hours of but then dropped again because I preferred the other FS games.
I would really like to play DS2 sometime soon, however. I want to know if the game is really as bad as people make it out to be or if it's just hyperbole.
I'm late to the thread, but...
Don't get your hopes up for DS2. It looks and plays like a basic 360 era 3rd person beatem up.
I want to play Bloodborn, but i don't have a PlayStation. So i fall asleep to lore videos instead.
So it doesn't stack up to the rest of the FromSoft catalogue for you? How come apart from the two points you mention?
Yea, it's unfortunate. If your PC is good enough, you could try emulating the game? A Lemmy user was kind enough to post a very detailed guide on how to set things up on here some while ago. Could be for you
