I'm really not sure if I should get it or not (Xbox One).
I've played through Dark Souls a few times and am currently on NG+ #4 for Dark Souls III.
I don't want to waste my money if it's not that good, but I don't know if I'll like it or not even though many don't.
Reviews of this game are extremely mixed, and that is why I came here.
[b]EDIT:[/b] The game has been purchased. Your feedback and opinions are still welcomed. Hopefully I don't find it to be a waste of $40...
[b]EDIT:[/b] Getting away from the start of the game and getting used to how it plays, I find myself really enjoying the game. =)

#2 is a bit of an odd man out in comparison to the design style of demons souls, and dark 1 and 3. However if you stop trying to compare it to the original (or 3 or whatever your first souls game was, they are almost always people's favorites) you will find that it's actually a great game in its own right. It a little slower in pace, a little more deliberate and punishing (estis takes much longer to heal for example) but it's a fantastic game, with a ludicrous amount of possibilities for builds, and the best NG+ in a souls game to date.
