A few of the games in our list of PC’s best RPGs don’t have a patch on the Dark Souls series.
At the time of writing, Dark Souls 3 has 115,119 current players and has hit a119,193 peak.
To put it into perspective, Football Manager 2016 is next with 55,834 players, followed by Team Fortress 2 with 46,093, and ARK: Survival Evolved with 40,012.

You wouldn’t think it from some of the elitists still floating about, but Dark Souls is finally mainstream.
