The best game of the original trilogy. I love the first half of this game, it is a very fluid experience up to the fight with Ornstein and Smough, and is incredibly rewarding. Despite the second half of the game being a way more open experience, I think it suffers from serious design flaws and terrible gimmicks. The DLC area is incredible though, and I loved most of the fights in the game. The Four Kings however can kiss my ass, I hate them so god damned much. Also I somehow beat Manus on my first try without a summon... I have no idea how the hell I did that. Also Black Knight Halberd for the win, I don't care if that makes me a goober, that weapon is boss.
