Fan Created Site Counts Your Dark Souls Deaths
A site created by Dark Souls fans allows you upload your save file to see how many time you've died.
You can check out the site here. Unfortunately, the death counter only applies to PC save files, which makes sense considering it is difficult to pull your save files from Sony's and Microsoft's consoles. There is a message on the page directed to console players that reads, "You're s*** out of luck. Sorry!" However, there is a request to message the site creators if you have an idea of how to access the console versions' data, so it could be something coming to the site in the future.
The site is also compiling stats for players submitting data, which offers some interesting graphs.
Speaking of death and Dark Souls, check out our A Journal Of Death: Five Hours With Dark Souls II preview feature by heading here. Dark Souls II releases March 11 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and PC April 25.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
