Jumped straight from DS1 to DS3 and it feels like the perfect sequel.

Everything about this game feels like a finale to the entire franchise. It has the perfect balance of being hard but fair. I love that there is so much build variety as well, played using strength/intelligence build which was so fun.

I think the only issue with the game has been the areas in ringed city throw too much BS at you, having to fight tanky enemies while dodging arrows and avoiding magical circles is just not fun at all but the bosses make up for the faults.

Highly recommend this.
