fromsoftware games, the order to play them if you're nervous

not release order. the order that doesn't make you quit after the first bonfire death spiral

01
Elden Ring (2022)
start here even though it's the newest, the open world lets you outrun anything too hard. worth the hours, easily 80+
02
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (2019)
different rules, no leveling your way out of a fight. skip the tutorial? no, it teaches the one skill you need the whole game
03
Dark Souls III (2016)
04
Bloodborne
faster and more aggressive, dodge instead of block. still no PC port which is a crime
05
Dark Souls (2011)
the one everyone references. clunkier than the others on purpose, kind of, i think
06
Dark Souls II (2014)
07
Demon's Souls (2020 remake)
PS5 remake, not the 2009 original unless you own a PS3. last on this list because it's the most PS-locked
