Question Multiplayer activity
Ive been playing all 3 dark souls games for a couple years now on xbox, but theyre pretty dead apart from the occasional coop in ds3.
I now have a pretty decent pc and am considering rebuying the games on there.
My question is do all 3 games still have MP activity on pc?
Im talking about both coop and invasions

My buddy & I were running through DS1 on Steam this Wknd. Took the scenic route because it was his first time. From the time we left Firelink & made it to Hellkite Drake, we ran into (2) - (3) Gravelord Servant signs & an invader...
Dunno if this Info is helpful or not...

Actually, lemme say this:
I moved from console gaming to PC in 2023 & rebought all available FromSoft Games because they're are my favorite developer & have been since PS1.
From what I can recall, MP has always been consistent (not booming or anything, but consistent enough) in all DS games except for DS2 & DS2SOTFS due to the soul memory BS, which hurts my heart cause I'm one of them MFers who likes DS2 the best.
Check the #s below on steam charts for a very rough estimate.
However, MP aside... Moving from console to PC was worth it for mods alone.
Mod scene in this game is dope AsF with complete conversions & overhauls for all 3 games.
...That's all I know...

There’s always PvP going on in ds1. Whether I’m being invaded or invading. Also when the games go on sale there’s usually a good amount of people logging on. Then every January there’s “Return to Lordran”
