Elden ring - most approachable
Dark souls 3 - most similar to elden ring. Just more focused and linear
Sekiro -completely different mechanics. But amazing!
Dark souls 1 - bit dated now. But good
Bloodborne - different to elden ring and Dark souls. More old England horror vibe

Imo. Go elden ring. Sekiro then Dark souls 3

Excuse me. . . .

Where is the love for DS2.

Anyway, I would say after Elden. Play the remaster Demon Souls, Bloodborne and then do the DS series in order.

I haven't played a souls game since 2017. Getting my ass handed to me so need to overlevel a bit.

Its very hard to overlevel in DLC due to soft caps. but high level helps with carrying the heaviest defensive armour and using any weapon which is super fun
 
I am really finding the DLC very different from the base in a good way as I have numerous weapons to fight different mobs. The base you basically do one weapon and just finish the game.

I have all fully upgraded:
- Bloodhound fang - pure weapon damage, good bleed and stance damage - used for tactical boss fights.
- Nagakiba with double slash keen - great at killing through dungeons and good against npc enemies.
- Dual bandits curved swords with bloody slash - good against big bosses where you just do jump attacks (4 jump attacks kill elden beast)
- Dragons-hunters great Kitana - kills dragons fast, the charged R2 fully buffed and hitting a dragons head does 5k damage.
- Sacred relic sword - insane against anything weak to holy, death birds die in like 3-8 waves.

I have got but don't really use:
Death knights twin axes - cool animations but I keep spinning off of ledges and dieing.
Beast claws - they kinda suck and was hoping they would be insane.

Too dumb to play with but might need for final boss:
Bloodfiends arm: 204 blood build up with a charged r2 with 60 arcane, add the extra blood build up with a flask and you get over 300. Basically if it can bleed it will bleed in 1-2 hits. Adding to that it does 53 stance damage which is the most in the game and the weapon can be farmed in the first area. Seriously WTF.
 
I played and got all achievements on the main game no summons. is this DLC worth the R750?
 
Between this and returnal I don't really know which one makes me more pissed off.

Don't think I will be playing any soul like, rogue like games ever again after these two.

I will rather play doom eternal on nightmare that's much easier for me.
