Dark Souls III is a 2016 action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. Released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows, the game is the third and final entry in the Dark Souls series and follows an unkindled warrior on a quest to prevent the end of the world. It is played in a third-person perspective, and players have access to various weapons, armour, magic, and consumables that they can use to fight their enemies. Hidetaka Miyazaki, the creator of the series, returned to direct the game after handing the development duties of Dark Souls II to others.
Runs well on modern hardware.

The penultimate action RPG. Only for the daring and courageous of heart. You may loose many battles in this game, but you only loose the war when you quit.
Ok so theres this boss called "Pontiff Sulyvahn" Right? Then there's this guy called Soul Of Cinder who's like the final boss of the game and stuff I don't wanna spoil more but. Let's just say, Pontiff Sulyvahn beat my ass way more then the final boss of the game. This is what I expected coming into a FromSoftware game and I must say, I am impressed by the levels of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Thank you, FromSoftware
ds1 and ds2 are "hard" in the sense that the levels are extremely punishing and everything will majorly inconvenience you. ds3 still has some aspects of these, but most of the difficulty has been transferred over to bosses, which is preferable imo. also it suits players who started off with elden ring
