I want to play DS3 but at the same time, I've never played a single souls game in my life and I would be playing it on PC.
Is it actually worth it?
you'd be better off killing yourself already since that's what will happen.
You'll die 1000x times and then git gud, it happens to all of us no matter which Souls game we start with.
I could recommend a good, simple build that's impossible to fuck up if you're interested.
Play Souls 1 first

Yes. It's worth it.
Start with a STR-build. You'll thank me later.

I'm not really bothered whether I'll die a shit ton or not, I already know that's going to happen.
I'm just concerned whether some things will be lost on me because I never played the other games.

Don't take this bait OP.
STR is the most useless stat.

your first souls game will likely be your favorite souls game

It rehashes a lot of the lore from the first Dark Souls game. This is completely inconsequential because 1. a lot of experienced players barely paid attention to the lore from the first game anyways 2. the lore in the third game isn't super exciting 3. it's easy for a Dark Souls veteran to breeze through Dark Souls III without even noticing or caring about the majority of the references.
There was maybe one moment in the game where I was excited to see something reminiscent of Dark Souls 1. It was because they just copy and pasted a level and then covered it in snow.
You won't miss anything important. Worst case scenario is you play Dark Souls III and then find you can't play the previous 2 games because the combat is slower and the graphics are slightly worse.
No just play Dark Souls 1 it's 5 dollars on the Humble Bundle and it's it's everything Dark Souls 3 tries and fails to be
Dark Souls 1 is more interesting and memorable, despite the mechanical improvements that DS3 had.
I can't imagine why anyone would play them out of order but so many people do. I'll never understand.

Don't listen to this meme. I played Demon's Souls but liked Dark Souls the best.
Also best game rankingI haven't finished Bloodborne
DS1 > Demon's> DS3 > power gap lol > DS2
Best hub
DS2 ≥ Demon's > DS1 > DS3

Same situation here guys
But I hate dying a lot, that's why I never touched any of them.
Liked Lords of the Fallen though, didn't die much there
You should start from 1 and play them in order. It is not absolutely required but the lore, especially in DS3, has a shit ton of references to thenolder titles.
