Actually, that brief description doesn’t come close to capturing what this mod offers. When we say that you can play as one of the game’s bosses, we don’t mean that you get to control them in the boss fight or in a very limited scenario. We mean that this mod lets you pick a boss and explore the entirety of Dark Souls 3‘s world as that character. Needless to say, that’s an ambitious concept. However, it must be said that ambition in this instance also equals some technical trouble. Needless to say, Dark Souls 3 wasn’t designed to be played as a fire-breathing dragon or a 20-feet tall giant with a flaming sword. As such, there’s a fair deal of clipping, some camera issues, and more than a few balance issues caused by the fact that some of Dark Souls 3‘s bosses are essentially overpowered. That creator, who shared some information about the game over on Reddit, is also responsible for the development of Dark Souls‘ Age of Fire mod which promised to let you play as bosses/enemies in that game. However, it seems that he has transitioned to the development of this new project due to the fact that Dark Souls 3 has a more active community. Unfortunately, there’s no release date available for the full version of this Dark Souls 3 mod at this time. With some luck, though, a playable version of the concept should be available soon.
