This review is based off my first 5 hours with the full build of Dark Souls 3. 

HEAVY SPOILER WARNING! I can't wait until we all have the game so I don't have to write this any more -.-

Dark Souls 3 ► Early-game Review

Comments

I read somewhere that people outside JP can get the JP version early if they have a JP PSN account. I can't translate or read moonspeak (wish I could though). If you know anything on this topic, I'd take the JP version 20 days early if I knew how.

"There will definitely be DLC" part worries me. In Dark Souls one it felt like you played through and re-kindled the first flame and then in subsequent playthroughs gained enough knowledge and lore to explore the dark ending. It was all part of the extended process of initiation that was the first game; like undertaking your own hero's journey through the bleak, beautiful ruin of the world. In the second game you also had to earn the alternative ending... but the barrier to entry was shelling out tons of extra money for DLC rather than exploration and attention to detail. I really hope there's, you know, an actual game in this game and not just a platform for selling additional DLC. I understand making the covenants more practical since I never really got to use them since I didn't get around to playing the first game until about the time the second game released. But, I'll really miss the sense of mystery that went along with meeting a god or finding a broken altar or a dragon hidden behind a subterranean lake and swearing a vow. They felt meaningful, even if you me they were never actually useful.

Can't wait for this. Thanks for posting.

In the video you said something of a 22nd of march. If I'm not mistaken, the game releases on the 24th of March in Japan though. Please explain, Brandon.
