  • I played Dark Souls 1 for the first time about a year ago and it was a miserable experience. I legitimately cannot understand what people enjoy about it. It was slow, clunky, and frustrating. The game was designed to be irritating. The only enjoyable boss in the main game was Ornstein and Smough (although the DLC bosses were all fantastic, with a special shout out to Artorias). The rest were either garbage or Crapra Demon, which deserves it’s own special level in hell.

    Prior to that, I had beaten every other Souls game other than DS 2 (and platinumed Bloodborne, Elden Ring, and Sekiro), so I know it’s not cause I don’t like Souls games.

    I think if I had played DS 1 as my first, it would have turned me off of the entire genre. I don’t even think it’s because I had played more recent games first, because I love Demon’s Souls.
