From still carries their own unique voice, but it's rare to see a developer so devoted to self-improvement.ĭark Souls III could have easily been too much, too soon-especially after last year's Bloodborne-but, in keeping with their recent rise to power, From still has a way of surprising people. Each Souls installment contains its own specific flaws, of course, but every dose of new content seemingly exists to address existing complaints from fans and critics alike.

While many series feel content to hastily shove new content into an existing template, Hidetaka Miyazaki's band of brothers seemingly use every new Souls (or Souls-related game) as a chance to make up for old mistakes. Human beings may have their limits, but the developers at From certainly haven't shown theirs. From Software's prolific output may mean good things for those who dig their specific take on game design, but every annual release brings us closer to the risk of diminishing returns.
