I picked them both up on release day, have 20 hours on dark souls and 37 on skyrim. Needless to say, I prefer Skyrim. It's worth noting, the slowdown in Dark Souls appears in several areas, and it can be downright horrible. Granted, there are those who can't play Skyrim, so I guess it's just luck to get a stable copy of either of the games.
Don't get me wrong, DS is still a really great game, but I'm more interested in the world of Skyrim.
But getting them at the same time would just result in one of them not being played nearly as much, so it depends on which one looks more interesting to you. Basically, you can't go wrong with either, and if you've played the previous games in both series you should be able to judge which one you'll like more.
