Gratz man! Have yet to go for it but will eventually.

Considering I spent around 1,400 hours in DS1 and DS2 (combined) it's hard to say. My initial reaction is that DS3 is probably the best crafted and generally most polished of the Dark Souls games. There are huge flaws with it though. Any covenant that isn't the Mound Makers or Sunbros is just bad. I still have yet to be summoned as a Blue Sentinel or a Darkmoon Blade; that really pisses me off. I have to subtract at least 1-2 points off the score for that alone.
Dark Souls 1 is still probably the best game out of the bunch.
Best NPCS, Best story, best level design, best covenants.
I think I like DS3's pvp the best so far. It's really solid and despite people talking about lag I feel it's the best it's ever been. And my thing in Souls games is pvp so that makes DS3 shine atm.

Well, the reason I have so many hours in the Souls games is because of pvp. To me there is no pvp better. It's so fun, especially when you find a look/build that works for you.
I feel that even though the covenants have taken a HUGE step down in quality in DS3, the pvp in general is better. At least the mechanics/feel of it. They could sure use some more diverse weapons though; ESPECIALLY great hammers from DS2. God I miss the Gyrm Great Hammer so badly.
That's one of the things DS2 did WAY better than DS1 or 3. It improved magic and pyromancy and had the BEST build diversity in not only pve but also pvp.

Glad I focused on Dex this time around then. Thats sad to hear though. Being an unbreakable tank got me through endgame DS1 bosses because I could literally just power through them, it was awesome.
Pope Sully wasn't particularly difficult for me, and the Abyss Watchers were honestly super ****ing easy, since I staggered them so easily with my broadsword.
Aldrich was easily the hardest boss for me, bizarrely so. No one else came close. It's his ****ing rain of arrows attack combined with spamming huge soul arrows.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Also I was emotionally compromised because he killed my Dark Souls husbando.
Huh, I thought he was pitifully easy myself. Sure, he killed me once or twice, but I'm pretty awful at the game.
Comparatively, Pontiff Sulyvahn raped me. Repeatedly. Though I oddly found his first "form" to be far more difficult than his second. His second form, I felt, had smaller combos, easier attacks to dodge, and most importantly had a bigger lag between combos giving you more time to heal or attack.
I don't think anyone could argue that the Nameless King was the most difficult with Sulyvhan taking the second spot.
Aldrich had one devastating attack; and once you knew how to deal with it he wasn't much of an issue. Abyss Watchers was super-easy. In the first phase you can simply wait them out by having them kill each other, all you really need is a decent shield, and in the second phase you would simply back-stab, follow up with a charged R2 and then rinse and repeat, and occasionally stun-locking him with R1:s. And Soul of Cinder was easy too, since he was slow, his combos were short and he was just as susceptible to stun-lock.
