| Jumpin said: I have been looking at this game, and am trying to figure out what about it people find so great. I know I am missing something, but it doesn't look like people are having fun with it in "let's plays," and the graphics are as bland as any game I have ever seen. |
Souls are acquired taste. They are AA (at best) games that came in era of AAA handholding and gave people option to play something quite different - well at least to what was around at a time. My initial reaction to them was "This is like Severance: Blade of Darkness (PC, 2001), just easier and with worse combat". But they oozed with atmosphere and had great level design, so I kept playing them and liking them quite a bit (I'm the odd one that likes DS2 the most).
