It’s Easier to Get Into
From a gameplay perspective, this is also arguably the easiest game to start with. There’s no problem with starting with a later game like Dark Souls III or Bloodborne, of course, but Dark Souls Remastered does provide a much gentler difficulty curve in comparison. The enemies in the Undead Asylum are easier to deal with, and even the tutorial boss doesn’t have too many complicated moves for you to get used to before you can take it down. Granted, if you’re completely new to the series, it’s still going to take some time before you get completely acquainted with the dodging and blocking mechanics, and the stamina system. But once you get the hang of all that, Dark Souls Remastered will get easier as you progress.
Yes, the game can be a little vague when it comes to player objectives and what you’re supposed to do next. In fact, once you reach Firelink Shrine, it becomes incredibly easy to do things out of sequence, and you might find yourself stuck in an area with enemies that are way too powerful for you. While it is true that dying and learning is part of the fun, here’s a quick hint for newcomers: head upwards from Firelink Shrine, don’t go downwards just yet.
