Dark Souls  From Software;Namco Bandai (From Software)2011Al menos para mí, en mi opinión. No tiene grandes gráficos pero te genera una atmósfera que llegas a palpar el lugar en el que te encuentras; tal vez sea la música de ambientación, las luces y sombras, la jugabilidad...Cuántos y cuántos juegos han copiado a este maravilloso juego.***

Dark Souls  Namco Bandai (From Software)2012Drift bags and vagrants are one of the most obscure mechanics of the game. Drift bags are dropped items that are randomly transported to another player's world where they can be picked up, if they aren't picked up they get transported again. Once the drift bag has been transported enough many times, it turns into a vagrant, a rare enemy that spawns in no other way. Vagrants if undefeated will be transported to other players' worlds much like the drift bags.***The game's story is about the waning Age of Fire which the player can help continue or end, the waning of the age also is the cause of the undead curse when Gwyn kindled the First Flame with his essence. Letting the Age of Fire end would bring about Age of Dark (a.k.a. Age of Humanity), but considering how Dark Souls (a.k.a. human souls) are prone to bad things and generally the world's bleak presentation of humans, this would probably be about as bad thing as the previous age or worse.

How bad humans and Dark Souls are or can be is especially shown in Artorias of the Abyss expansion (which is included in the Windows port of the game), though the information gained there can be somewhat misleading. The Abyss appeared because the pygmy went insane, not because it was natural thing to happen with Dark Souls, and the Abyss corrupted Artorias and the Oolacile. Many players seem to assume this is the natural progression for what happens with Dark Souls unfortunately.***With a moody and almost grimterror atmosphere and lore that would make even H.P.Lovecraft shiver a little, a simple but very customizable character development and a gameplay that is hard and "unfair", bringing back the "trial and error" progress system of classical arcade games, this game is simply a jewel of RPG-action goodness.

Sadly, this version is a poorly done port from the console version, almost forcing to be played by handheld control (keyboard + mouse is horribly designed and also missing keybinding for some actions), and the camera feels clunky, slow and very dependant of player panning/autolock.

8 of 10***Dark Souls is an upcoming action role-playing game from the developers who brought you Demon’s Souls, FromSoftware. Dark Souls will have many familiar features: A dark fantasy universe, tense dungeon crawling, fearsome enemy encounters and unique online interactions. Dark Souls is a spiritual successor to Demon’s, not a sequel. Prepare for a new, despair-inducing world, with a vast, fully-explorable horizon and vertically-oriented landforms. Prepare for a new, mysterious story, centered around the King’s Crowns and the original, now dying flame at the center of the world. But most of all, prepare to die. You will face countless murderous traps, countless darkly grotesque monsters and several gargantuan, supremely powerful demons and dragons. You must learn from death to persist through this unforgiving world. And you aren’t alone. Dark Souls allows the spirits of other players to show up in your world, so you can learn from their deaths and they can learn from yours. New to Dark Souls is Beacon Fire, where you can share the experiences of your adventure with the spirits of other players. Around the Beacon Fire, you may find the only warmth and calm that exists in this dark world. Beware: There is no place in Dark Souls that is truly safe. With days of game play and an even more punishing difficulty level, Dark Souls will be the most deeply challenging game you play this year. Can you live through a million deaths and earn your legacy?

* Symbolic of Life & Hope – The Beacon Fire is an important feature of Dark Souls for many reasons. Though in gameplay it serves as a recovery and re‐spawn point for players whose health gets low and is the one place in the dark world where players can find a fleeting moment of warmth and calm.***[media=youtube]WlVBVKAFFg4[/media]

Dark Souls II  FromSoftware;Namco Bandai Games (FromSoftware)2014Developed by FROM SOFTWARE, DARK SOULS™ II is the highly anticipated sequel to the gruelling 2011 breakout hit Dark Souls. The unique old-school action RPG experience captivated imaginations of gamers worldwide with incredible challenge and intense emotional reward.
[Steam Store]***Confusingly DS2 DX9 version received an update named Scholar of the First Sin which makes it harder to identify the actual DX11 version released under that name in some circumstances. Although the update makes the DX9 version close to what the DX11 version is, there's still significant differences between them.

[Steam Store]***(Jugado hasta la segunda zona)

Hasta ahora he visto que mejora y cambia respecto al anterior varios elementos.

Pros:
-Los controles por fin son decentes.
-No se traba como antes.
-Alterna con mucho más criterio entre lugares claustrofóbicos y espacios abiertos.
-Añade cierta belleza a su habitual mundo tenebroso.

Cons:
-Sigue favoreciendo demasiado las clases de melee puro o con toques de magia frente a cualquier otra.

8 de 10***[b]Scholar of the First Sin[/b] edition brings few mostly irrelevant changes to the base gameplay while bundling the 3 Crowns DLCs. Also exclusively 64 bit and DX11 unlike the original which was exclusively 32 bit and DX9.

[b]Changes:[/b]
* 6 maximum players per session (2 allied summons and 3 invaders) instead of 4, and an additional item to control soul memory.
* Some enemy placements have been changed.
* Includes the Crown of the Sunken King, Crown of the Old Iron King, and Crown of the Ivory King DLCs.

Multiplayer and saves for the new edition are also incompatible with the original.

Dark Souls: Remastered  Namco Bandai (From Software)2018Embark upon an epic dark fantasy in a universe stricken by decline and the Curse. Explore its intricate world design - full of hidden passages, dungeons and secrets - and uncover its deeply rooted lore.***Has significant changes to the engine and certain parts of the gameplay. Some features from the sequels were ported over. This however is not redesign of original Dark Souls, so many of the problems of the original are still present. The assumed goal however of this product is to move support to unified game across all current supported platforms and allow players who never played the original to experience it.

There's been some severe outcry from PC Dark Souls fans for the remaster not doing "enough".
