4. Sen's Fortress

.

Infamous and somewhat despised, Sen's Fortress is pure Dark Souls. The challenging and oppressive nature of the area is uncontested and it is emblematic of the true Dark Souls experience: Creeping around its many corridors with one estus, desperately hoping for a bonfire.

The theme of traps and deceit is laid thick in the area and it makes you not trust a single thing about the area. Even the simplest of things such as chests are willing to rip your throat out if you aren't careful. All of this serves to keep the player on their toes and force them to use environmental clues to piece together the danger ahead.

People might consider it to be unfair and brutal, but it deserves to be. Looking past the bitterness it may hold, you simply cannot deny that it does its job perfectly.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
