    I like how Dark Souls made From Software into a bigger company. They managed to carve out their own niche. In the 90's and 2000's From Software used to develop a lot of bad games. Their dungeon crawlers like King's Field were fun and their modern games still feel like dungeon crawlers in a way due to great interconnected level design...
    Armored Core was amazing too, instead of having to go to an arcade I could just play Armored Core on my PS1 and the secrets were so much fun to find I kept replaying the levels. But I still remember their old odd games like Enchanted Arms (their take on a turn-based JRPG with recruitable monsters and you fought on a grid) and Ninja Blade (a Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry kind of game but still really fun). It might be possible that their development costs were low enough that they didn't have to sell too much to get a profit, game budgets and marketing budgets were a lot lower in the 2000's. But I just really like how From Software kept making games until they found something that worked.

      Had a similar occurrence my first days playing. Was battling the Tower Knight in the Undead Parish when I got the invasion warning. Sheer dread. Tried to lure the Knight outside and just hope for the best... he got stuck in the floor near the exit to the bonfire. The Invader appeared, saw what was going on and applauded me while I hacked the disabled tower knight down. Ended up "backstabbing" me without wielding a weapon for minimal damage, left me a sack full of "Soul of a ..." (a couple levels and some gear worth) and a black knight weapon before disappearing. Made my day, and I pressed on the challenge with renewed excitement.
      Players like you and that guy do make a difference.

    Dark souls will forever be the best game I've ever played. No other game I have played or will ever play will make me fall in love with a game like dark souls did. Obsessed is an understatement. I wish I could play it for the first time again. I remember what hooked me early on was the difficulty and lack of direction. I was so tired of hand holding in games and dark souls came out and it just felt like a sandbox of a world to explore with the only limit being my levels and weapon upgrades.

      @HeroSword_P 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      After 13 years (yikes), I gotta disagree. It's so small that I'd be hard to cram a bonfire somewhere in there. There are enough shortcuts to mitigate the grueling push through the area:
      1. Drop the ladder
      2. Unflood the area
      3. Activate the elevator, or just drop down from the higher elevations.
      4. Fight Four Kings
      Simple as that.

    I played Dark Souls for the first time last year. Aside from some camera and control issues, (the game is over a decade old so, forgivable it'll play poorly), game was fantastic.
    I have no clue why people call it a hard game though, only time I struggled was with the Four Kings in NG+3, then I looked up the best tactic was to just wear the heaviest armour in the game and to just attack the boss relentlessly with my best weapon.
    I did grow up playing Kid Chameleon, Comix Zone and Ecco the Dolphin though.

    I died to Pinwheel too, and I didn't think much of it. I was running a Pyromancy main with a Claymore, and I had learned to play passively up until then. Whenever I would "act out of turn", or attack while the boss wasn't busy attacking, I noticed I would be unable to cancel the action, and I would very likely get hit because I can't dodge or reposition. So going into Pinwheel, I just kinda ran around and waited to find my queue to attack. Not fifteen seconds later, there were four Pinwheels on my screen, multiplying fast. I wasn't lucky enough to find the right one, and of course, I had no AOE that could clear them all. I was dead before long, probably after panic rolling.
    I wasn't even ashamed because it was Dark Souls, as far as I was concerned, it was just another death. Only after hearing about all this online did I feel like I should've been embarrassed lol

    Do we still need videos like this? It’s been over 10 years, and there have been plenty of these videos in that time.

      @tDIYc I guess, and there’s nothing inherently wrong with that, but it’d be nice (imo) if people stopped fawning over the golden calf that is DS1 at this point. And I’m not saying that like I think it doesn’t deserve all the praise it gets, but there are other games in the series (not just counting Dark Souls) and it seems like they get a fraction of the coverage. I guess I’m personally just tired of seeing the same DS1 talking points endlessly recycled every time someone discovers the game.

      @tDIYc I don’t know if you misinterpreted what I said, maybe I worded it poorly, but I wasn’t just speaking to Souls-likes. I meant Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne. Other From Soft games that don’t get the same treatment, at least not from what I see. BB I would say gets treated more like DS1 in terms of being held up as a high point but still doesn’t get as much coverage imo. Not until Elden Ring came out have I seen any other From Soft game get the same kind of treatment as DS1.

    DS2 is a masterpiece in it's own right. It's not 1 but it's still a beautiful perfect game. I will never talk bad about any actual fromsoft game, I've played so many cheesey souls likes they make DS2 look like the mona lisa. All jokes aside all 3 Dark Souls games and both Demon Souls are brilliant, everyone is gonna like this one over that one, some like 2 better then any other, but they are all sick games! They hold up today and are a joy to play, test you and make you feel proud to progress.

    Dark souls 1 is mid lol. People who consider it a "masterpiece" are blinded by nostalgia. The things it does right deserve to be praised but that's few and far between. Unfinished game, unfinished combat system dog shit framerate, bugs/glitches galore. Half the shit said in this video is just objectively incorrect.

      Please explain the "dog shit framerate" part because the game is buttery smooth lol

      ​​@@xKindle sounds like someone only ever played the remastered edition go back and play the original which they charged full price for and compare it to the remaster which they also charged you another $40 for that still has nearly all the same bugs and glitches just patched framerate and enhanced graphics

      @shoobydoo remaster is perfect 👌 love it so much, ds2 is also goated

      @@xKindle you're entitled to that opinion. While I still somewhat enjoy DS1, it's still an unfinished game and denying that is just objectively incorrect. The original is inexcusable and I can confirm that because I have a physical copy that I revisited less than two months ago. The remaster offers nothing but $40 for upgraded framerate and graphics. I do agree DS2 is an incredible game which even the original game on two generation old hardware holds strong.

      Blinded by nostalgia? We’ve not stopped playing it since launch, how is that nostalgia? It’s considered a masterpiece because it is one. It’s not a case of remembering it fondly from a long time ago as the last time I played it was last week
