I’ve commonly heard the world of Dark Souls described as a form of purgatory. This is not accurate. Purgatory is a condition of temporary judgement, a holding cell before final placement in heaven or hell. The condition in Dark Souls is nothing of the sort. After the final encounter is finished and the inauspicious credits roll, you awaken back in your cell.

9.2
Those with the patience to wrangle with From Software's latest will be richly rewarded.

9.5
Dark Souls is an extraordinary role-playing game that transports you to an awesome and menacing world you may never forget.
