Dark Souls might not be for you. Of course, that’s not saying much; thanks to the universal rule of, “there’s no accounting for taste,” even the most lauded games have their detractors — and on the same note, altogether crummy productions often earn a devoted cult following. In this wild and wooly world of game reviews, scores don’t necessarily apply equally to everyone; one man’s “A” for something like Fifa 12 could be an “F” for those who find soccer a terrible waste of time. That said, I have a few questions: Are you patient? Can you devote dozens upon dozens of hours to a single game? Does the thought of unbridled independence fill you with elation rather than abject terror?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, it’s very likely that you’ll agree with this review of Dark Souls. If not, you’ll be happy to know that there are literally hundreds of games you’ll undoubtedly enjoy much more — and there’s nothing wrong with that.
