Additionally, much of the mod’s base content has changed over its updates, meaning you’ll have a rough time if you try to use the same save file across different versions. You won’t be facing off against anything completely new, which is especially apparent when most of the base game’s bosses are still without any changes. While it technically adds new bosses inspired by previous Souls games, they still use moves and animations from existing enemies found in Dark Souls 3. Unfortunately, this mod has a few quirks that might turn some players away. After four years, Cinders is still one of the best mods for Dark Souls 3 you’ll find, and it’s certainly not hard to see why. It probably has the most amount of content that you’ll find in any mod for this title, allowing you to make whatever build you could dream of.
It was the first to completely change the game in terms of progression, enemy placement, and difficulty, making the whole experience a more dangerous and rewarding one. Cinders is widely considered to be the definitive Dark Souls 3 mod.
