If you want an rpg that is more about combat then its story, characters or dialogue, then this is for you.
But if you want story, good characters or interesting dialogue, this is probably not for you.
I enjoyed the combat alot personally but thats it.
Also I have to disagree with it being the hardest game out there. For me games like Risen1/Risen2 and Megaman 9 are harder (atleast to me)

Dark Souls has a story, it has good characters, and it has interesting dialogue.
No it does not have good story, good characters or interesting dialogue. It has none of those things at all imo.
It does have excellent combat and atmosphere, but thats where it ends for me.
Even my friends who think the Souls games are the best ever admit its low points are story and characters (check reviews to, you dont see many mention amazing story or GOOD characters or interesting dialogue as you say).
I respect you're opinion, but for me the series does not offer much other then combat and atmosphere.
I can enjoy some rpgs that lack in story, characters and dialogue, but I can also admit when rpgs do certain aspects badly (like souls does cahracters, story adn dialogue badly imo).
Some of the best combat around, but nothing was impressive about the story, characters or dialogue at all. In fact you are the first person ive seen priase the story, characters and dialogue of this series.
Hell even my favorite games of all time I can find faults in them, even though I love them. its not hard to see the SOULS series faults and low points imo. Then again everyoen is different.
Good dialogue I think of Obsidian rpgs, good story/characters I think of Planscape Torment, The Witcher1/2,etc... Souls series come to mind when I think of great combat and atmosphere, definatly not story or characters. What was so good about the story, characters and dialogue? Even from a minimalistic view point, its not got a good story, characters or dialogue imo. Nothing the cahracters said in both the souls games was remotely interesting. And there was no cahracters was interested about or cared about.
Every rpg does not have to have an amazing story, character or dialogue to me, but it was plainfully obvious that the soul series strengths are combat, controls and atmosphere, while its lower points are story, characters and dialogue. Atleast thats my honest opinion, ive been playing rpgs for over 25 years and the story/characters and dialogue in the souls games did not impress me at all.
