The combat is similar to witcher as its a 3rd person melee focused game but I found dark souls combat to be more responsive and engaging, the combat variety is also much more varied with more impactful spells than in witcher, should you chose that route, and there are numerous weapon types outside of straight sword.

There also isn't much sandbox exploration, at least in DS3, the path is largely linear, though open enough, with boss battles at the end of each segment. You don't have exposition dialogues to give you the basis of the plot, instead have to be more engaged, in that you discover objects with descriptions and use the outlay of the world around you to put the pieces together yourself. The story is very much hidden in dark souls. Quests don't provide you with xp and really, there are are few quests to be had in dark souls and they are often opaque in appearance and tasks. In terms if it's rpg leveling, they are very different. It's a dead world where you might explore every corner before finally finding the next location.īut both are fantastic games, I wish I could wipe my memory and experience both for the first time. It's all about item setups and stat improvements to wield the best weapons as well as find the best armor. The SoulsBorne series is known for its combat. Most of your information is given from Item descriptions as well as NPC dialogue.

This is a really good standard RPG, excels at what it does, giving you a world full of content.ĭark Souls 3 is essentially a post apocalyptic scenario where you are given almost nothing and explore and kill enemies without knowing much about them. The combat is simple, most people who play it just spam a few attacks, dodge, cast Quen, rinse and repeat until your enemy is dead. The Witcher 3 is a lively land with people bustling about everywhere and is very story driven with almost everything being given.
