I played this game on my PS4 for the 1rst time, so the amount of time I've spent on this game isn't accurate. Bloodborne was my very 1rst FromSoftware game, so then I went to try out this one. I don't think there's another game in the market that has made me replay it over and over and over again to the extend that I've done with this game. It's one of the few games where I feel proud about having multiple save files, builds, and different ways of running through it. Fighting through the many amazing and unforgiving bosses, interacting with all the NPCs, and seeing the world that Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team have formed in this game. It is in my Top 10 Games of all time, and it holds a very special place in my heart. I suffered and struggled a lot in my first playthrough, but ever since then, it's something I always come back to enjoy. I got to play through the DLCs years ago and actually beat them, and it just made me want to end my time with the game on a strong note. I'll come back to it every now and then, but it's truly a game I would recommend anyone to go through.
i just started playing this game in 2024, but this game saved my life, i had alot going on since 2022, and i didnt have any motivation to keep going, but dark souls 3 is different. it taught me to keep pushing forward no matter what, every boss fight felt like a refelction of my struggles hard. unforgiving, but never impossible. with each defeat, i learned to get back up, and with every victory i felt a little stronger. this game didnt just give me an escape, it gave me a reason to believe in my self again. the constant cycle of dying and learning taught me that failure isnt the end. its just another step toward growth. it made me realize that no matter how dark things get, there's always a light ahead if i keep moving forward. dark souls 3 became more than just a game to me, it became a symbol of resilience and hope, remindiing me that even when life feels impossible, i can always try one more time and honestyle its the only soulsborne game i can play properly. im just so glad my pc barely met the minimum requirements and managed to run it a bit smoothly, i remember trying elden ring, hoping to experice that same feeling, but all i got was 25-30 FPS, and it was barely playable. it felt like life was mocking me again, like even when i tried to chase something i loved, i was held back by things i couldnt control, but dark souls 3 it ran well enough and that was all i needed, it was like the universe gave me just one chance to hold on to something and im so grateful that i did.
This is probably the pinnacle of the traditional souls formula. Almost everything has been fine-tuned in comparison to the original Dark Souls. Add in the DLC and amazing boss-fights, and this game is a perfect candidate to be added to the GOG library.

why are people voting for newish games and games that are already preserved via steam? save the resources for games that are more obscure and cant be accessed at all on modern platforms. this vote completely misses the point of good OLD games. OLD OLD OLD! its right there in the name. Old means like... over 10yrs ago or something.
Those games also need your vote!

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
