There’s no other game series like Dark Souls. FromSoftware’s landmark series encouraged many imitators, but the trilogy’s authenticity of design, lack of compromise, and approach to challenge cannot be beaten. Elden Ring brought this to the open world, but the Dark Souls trilogy used more condensed design in ways that help it hold up today. So if you’ve never played any of the originals, now’s the time, because you can get them all cheap on Steam.
