Dark Souls is hailed as one of the greatest games ever made, and the true father of the soulslike, and its influence on not just the gaming industry, but on people as well is something very few games can even think about claiming. Dark Souls is not just a video game, its an experience, and this time, that phrase actually is a good thing when talking about gaming. But how did Dark Souls become the legend that we know it as today? Well, that's why I'm here, so strap in boys, and lets get down to business.
Important note: this will be part 1 of 2, part 2 will be discussing the Artorias the Abysswalker DLC, because lets be real, this video is long enough as it is.
