Games like Dark Souls

I have played Kings Field IV? on the PS2, very, very much like Dark Souls. Not has fast paced but you definitely are alone in a massive world getting stronger and stronger. Plus they have big eff yous in it. Like in the beginning where you take a wrong step and fall to your death immediately.

I'd recommend the Witcher 2 on the xbox, you can get it in GoD and has good combat, difficulty and boobies. I went the herbalist route primarily and didn't touch magic or swordsmanship. It was definitely fun and worth the time invested. Plus they have a Dark mode if you really want to test your skills.
