CLASSIC PROVEN CORE… … WITH A MODERN TWIST!

Players enjoy to customize builds,
get new shiny loot and get more
powerful weapon to defeat more
powerful monsters.
Risk to lose your best gear and necessity to experiment with new builds
from available items significantly encourage higher replayability and
variety, whereas the value of player’s mastery and deservedness of victory
are supported by a high failure cost
(”beat Dark Souls” wouldn’t be such an achievements if not the constant rollbacks when you fail)
