I’m talking [b]overall[/b]. Not just difficulty, but which one you enjoy the most.
IMO, Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne are the best and the rest are leages behind then in terms of gameplay, map layout and all around fun. I’ve played every game multiple times now and I have to say 2 is the worst and 1 is falling short behind it.
Too slow for my liking mostly, but there are multiple reasons.
My personal order (best->worst) would be:
Bloodborne
Dark Souls 3
Demon Souls
Dark Souls 1
Dark Souls 2

I really liked Dark Souls 1 in terms of there being no fast travel. It made things so immersive, and created a wonderful head-map that I occasionally would think through to determine where I needed to go. That being said, I voted Bloodborne for combat and lore.
