Not sure if this is my favorite out of the verdite trilogy or my least favorite, There is a ton of cool stuff in this game, I think the narrative is really neat, the atmosphere and music are great but damn, the forced grinding section kinda blew and the forced wait kinda blew as well.

I am curious if Dark Souls 2 took a lot of inspiration from this game between the Petrified obstacles, the way some NPCs work(I guess this is universal in all Souls games), the way some shit doesn't even flinch. It's really interesting. I will say out of all the King's Field games I've played and if you just wanted to play one of them I think 3 is the way to go. It's just linear enough but not too linear and the balancing doesn't seem too crazy.
