A player also has the option of ranged weapons, such as swords and bows, and magical spell-attacks-but the game tends to feel most at home in melee-combat, where the player is forced to manage a stamina pool that each action draws from. To keep things interesting, these actions are each given some variety: with weapons having light and heavy attacks, shields offering a parry function, and the roll button also offering a quick backstep when no directional input is given. In Dark Souls III, that sequence can be done by attacking with a wide variety of medieval weapons, blocking with a shield, and finally evading with a quick-roll maneuver. The combat, though newly famous, is heavily inspired by 3D iterations of Zelda-which forces the player to transition tactically between offensive, defensive, and evasive actions. Despite the growing popularity of the term souls-borne as a video game genre, Dark Souls III is at its heart an action-RPG.
