It’s safe to say that some people have been experiencing Souls fatigue. I mean, in the last two years, if you count a remake, there have been three retail Souls games (Dark Souls II, Scholar, and Bloodborne), on top of four DLC packs, and a mobile cash-in.

Dark Souls 3 on PS4, XBox One and PC offers a savage mix of Bloodborne and the original Souls games, but can it hold a flame to its predecessors?

Dark Souls 3 is like a love letter to the fans courtesy of From Software. It will remind you why Dark Souls became a global phenomenon in the first place, though it unfortunately may have lost its own personality in the process.
