The enhancements made by the X-BOX One X to have native 4K resolution make this game look absolutely stunning at places. To all those claiming it's a basic port, this game would run at two frames per second on the PlayStation 3 and XBOX 360. If you love Dark Souls and aren't cheap, you'll love this game. If you're new to this game or the series in general, Dark Souls: Remastered is a great place to start. Dark Souls: Remastered is a flawed masterpiece.… Expand

The combat is great with many ways to play as there are so many different weapons, spells and items to use. The level design is one of the best I have ever seen especially because the open world is so interconnected. The locations/areas all feel distinct with mostly well-designed enemies. The bosses are great but some can be pretty annoying such as the bed of chaos- that whole area is quite annoying. My favourite area has to be Anor Londo and my my favourite is the final dlc boss- Manus father of the abyss or Artorias- both amazing bosses that are very challenging.… Expand

   Let me start off by saying that this is not a remake, and I know that a lot of people were angry about that. If you go into this gameLet me start off by saying that this is not a remake, and I know that a lot of people were angry about that. If you go into this game expecting it to be drastically different from the original version, then you might be disappointed. In a nut shell, it is a better running version of the original with some improvements to the inventory system and pvp.
   While it may look the same as before initially, there are some noticeable graphical improvements. For example, the magic in this game is a night and day difference from before. Before, magic attacks would look like a colored mist, but now it looks like it has quality to it. Of course the biggest difference for people coming from the 360/PS3 versions is going to be the lack in frame rate drop in areas such as Blighttown. Another smaller change is to the usage of items in your inventory. Whereas before you had to use humanity or captured souls one at a time, now you can use as many as you want all at once, saving you time.
   I can't comment too heavily on the pvp since I'm more of a single player kind of person and I only got invaded a few times. I can comment that pvp still seems to not run 100% perfectly like it should in a remaster, although you can now have 3v3 combat which is cool.
   This is still Dark Souls, meaning it is one of the best games ever made. Whether or not people feel that these changes justify $40 is a choice they will have to make. To me, the frame rate upgrades were enough to justify the purchase, and having just finished the game, I have no regrets. If this is going to be your first attempt at a Soulsborne game, I highly recommend this version on consoles, especially since it comes with the Artorias of the Abyss DLC.… Expand

   A pretty lukewarm remaster of an extremely good game. It is honestly more of a port as almost nothing was fixed and they introduced even more bugs.

   Not as good or hard as ds3, for a game that is supposed to be hard I found this remarkably easy. I kind of went to the wrong area firstNot as good or hard as ds3, for a game that is supposed to be hard I found this remarkably easy. I kind of went to the wrong area first halfway through and while it made that section a little more tricky it left me overpowered for the rest of the game, bosses just died from me looking at them. There are several bosses in ds3 that took many hours to overcome, the hardest boss here took 5 attempts, I mean come on lego games give more of a challange. There is one really anoying boss arguably the easiest and hardest at the same time, just requires pure luck which any player can have. This game is fun and I highly reccomend but it's not close to being as good or testing as ds3… Expand

   A lot of time is wasted by just running across the map and avoiding enemies in order to get to boss battles. Another thing that bothered me is that you lose progress by having to recover your souls when you die. I think it was designed this way to stretch the game out, rather than to improve player experience.
   
   I will not be buying more products in this franchise.… Expand
