DARK SOULS PREPARE TO DIE EDITION REPACK
DARK SOULS PREPARE TO DIE EDITION REPACK
Dark Souls Prepare TO Die EDITION
Developer: From Software
Publisher: Namco Bandai Games
Genre: Action, RPG
Platform: PC / Windows
Last year, Dark Souls was released on consoles. A towering achievement, its treacherous, interconnected realms offered some of the most absorbing exploration a game has ever conjured, and its intense and grueling combat made victory against even the most common enemies a source of gratification and relief. Now, this masterpiece has made its way to PC as the aptly titled Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition. This version adds a few new areas, improves on the console versions in one sense, and falls a bit short of its console counterparts in another. But ultimately, this is the same incredible game that was released on consoles, and if you didnt have the option to play it then, you definitely shouldnt let this opportunity go unseized.
You are undead, struggling to fight your way through the realms of Lordran on a quest whose final purpose is anything but clear. Where many games burden you with plot and background lore, Dark Souls lets the places you go tell their own kind of story, one lost in time and shrouded in mystery. The stone ruins at Firelink Shrine, the overrun town known as the Undead Burg, the vast marble halls of Anor Londo--these all speak of a once-prosperous realm rich with history, and rather than spelling it out in detail, Dark Souls lets you wonder about what has dragged this land into its current state of miserable disrepair. Item descriptions and brief conversations with non-player characters occasionally illuminate the smallest aspects of Lordrans past, and over time, you may piece together a reasonably fleshed-out picture of the crisis that has befallen the land. But you neednt concern yourself with these details if they dont interest you. The wondrous realms of Lordran are sure to seduce you whether you care to know their history or not.
Darkroot Garden is so oppressively green that you can almost feel the air get warm and muggy around you. Running along the surreal shores of Ash Lake is like stepping into a dream. Locations like Anor Londo and the dukes archives fuse faded opulence with grand machinery in a way thats reminiscent of locations in the classic adventure game Myst, and like the realms of that game, these places have a way of staying in your head even when youre not playing. Terrific sound design is a huge factor in Dark Souls ability to pull you in. Your steps echo convincingly in vast chambers. A heavy suit of armor clangs with every step you take. The strange noises a feared creature makes may send shivers up your spine before you even lay eyes on it.
Also in this new realm is the Battle of Stoicism, an arena for player-vs.-player battles. Here, you can partake in one-on-one, two-on-two, or four-player deathmatch battles with nothing at stake but leaderboard glory. Sadly, a number of issues make the arena a frustrating place. Its not unusual to have to wait several minutes or more to be matched with an opponent. (This is assuming youre playing the one-on-one battles, which are much more heavily populated than the other types.) Once you are paired up with a foe and dropped into the arena to see which of you can defeat the other the most times in a three-minute period, you can expect lag to plague your battle, as your opponent hops around the screen without animating properly and you sometimes take damage despite the fact that your opponent didnt appear to hit you. The arenas presence doesnt harm the overall game since its entirely optional, but it doesnt bring much to it, either.
Despite this minor disappointment, Dark Souls remains one of the greatest games of recent years. Theres so much to do and to discover in its beautiful and frightening world. You might encounter and join one of nine covenants, each with its own benefits and agendas. You might find that one NPC has murdered another and that you can invade the killers world as a spirit of vengeance. The genius of Dark Souls isnt just in its environments, or its monsters, its thrilling combat, or the unusual and exciting ways in which players are connected. Its in the uncompromising way it throws conventional wisdom to the wind, dropping you into its dangerous world without guidance, making you fend for yourself, and teaching you to shrug off defeat time and time again to finally earn victory. That this vast and unforgettable masterpiece is now only $40 makes the decision to play it even easier.
