Another homosexual skips Dark Souls 2 despite it being the best one. Many such cases.
It‘s legit garbage. Waste of money and i loved all the other games
What a homosexual you are. Dark Souls 2 is the best Dark Souls PERIOD. It's the highest rated Dark Souls game on Metacritic, btw.

The game had a bunch of nice features of quality of life improvements but it just felt miserable to play and i hate the endgame
Objectively true and will never be refuted.

>painfully unfinished 2nd half makes you want to quit after O&S
>the most exploitable PvE content in the trilogy
>DS3
>completely linear and back-loads all the quality content, completely ruining replayability.
>Nerfed every means of defending yourself outside of spamming rolling, which was buffed
>DS2
>erm... the the textures are repeating here!
>this mini boss isn't as good as (Insert Major Bossfight from other Souls game)
Yeah checks out to me. Truly the black sheep!
thats not what most people criticise ds2 for lol nice strawman
people criticise it for being too slow and ganky
Considering how my point was that the games minor flaws are blown out of proportion while 1 and 3s are minimized, that literally changes nothing. Also,
>Too slow
It's objectively faster and more responsive than both souls games before it.
>ganky
only the most filtered of secondaries complain about this.
Its quite literally slower in almost all animations
movement is locked to 8 directions bro
Wrong. And use a controller profile, takes 30 seconds.
>people criticise it for being too slow and ganky
That's one of it's strengths, enemies are slow and deliberate, so if your good with crowd control, even large groups of enemies are managable, but every mistake is punished for how hard some enemies hit, like enemies that flatten you when they land a hit or plop their ass on you
>It's the highest rated Dark Souls game on Metacritic
love when morons here use metacritic or other reviews when it supports their opinion and shit on it otherwise
It has actual build variety and reasons to do ng+. Also has an offbeat feel none of the other games have
ds2 for ps4 costs the most so that's why
ill probably play it eventually
>DS2gay gaslighting headcanon
many such cases
have a nice day ds2 schizo
Dark Souls = Mega Man
Bloodborne = Mega Man X
i'd argue it's more
ds1 = castlevania
bloodborne = symphony of the night
Strange comparison. DaS is more like Symphony of the Night. Bloodborne is more like Castlevania.
I can honestly see where you're both coming from. I used the MM/MMX comparison because Bloodborne plays pretty much like a faster and more aggressive Dark Souls. The setting and aesthetics are up to a different interpretation.
It doesn't even feel bad I have no idea why people act like these games feel horrible to play. DS2's deadzones are eh but you get used to them by the time you beat dragonrider.
1 is maximum kino adventure. Particularly the first half. See it through to the end and play the DLC please. You won't regret it. While the later games are more fluid and polished there is an atmosphere and tension to exploring DS1s world that they were never able to capture again. Elden Ring comes close but isn't quite as focused.
Also, while DS2 is the weakest entry in the series it is still better than 80% of video games.

People say the same thing about bad zelda games so i don‘t buy it
You, along with every other Matthewmatosis, are the biggest fricking morons on this board.

Ugh yeah. That video has been spammed on this board since 2014, newfriend.
>he watched it, knowing it was eceleb garbage
poor cope
I've played everything but Dark Souls 3 which i'm playing after beating DS2 DLC, Bloodborne, and oddly enough Dark Souls 1 DLC because I bought the original release for Xbox360 before the DLC was i'm guessing packaged with it, never bothered with remastered, I feel like I'll never get around to playing it either. How is Remastered truthfully on a Series X? Does it run at 60fps?
How on earth does DaS3 feel "better" to play
>heaviest armor in the game feels like a tin can from walking to getting hit in
>mid roll and fast roll are functionally the same, providing no value to thinking about what kind of build you're using
>everything past a 2 hit combo was considered an actual exploit and patched out
Bloodborne is what you get if you take all the objectively bad elements of this game and wash them out.
All the sequels took the wrong lessons and ran with them. 1 is the only good Fromsoft souls-like.
If by 1 you mean the first souls game, Demon's Souls, you are correct.
Slower is better. Hitting things with a heavy piece of steel feels a lot better than whatever the frick Bloodborne turned the whole franchise into.
Nobody can refute the claims of Dark Souls 2 being the best. I wrote out an entire paragraph listing Dark Souls 2's qualities. How do they homosexual parrots refute this? They simply can't. They have nothing. All they can do is tell me to kill myself because they can't accept the truth.
Bloodborne was a mistake and FS should never do another project with Sony again. I'm glad Japan Studio got shut down. Frick that piece of shit game and it's makers.
Dark Souls 2 is a good game, but I wouldn't put it at the top. It's only above Demon's Souls, and on par with Dark Souls 3 for me. I know I'm an outlier, it just really scratches that itch for a slow paced dungeon crawler, which is exactly what Dark Souls 2 is for the most part. I'm not there for the bosses, because they're objectively the worst in the series, though not bad. I'm there for everything before that, exploring each area, most of them having a gimmick to them that makes it interesting. Every other souls game feels like I'm just going down hallways and killing shit.
>It feels slower
Yeah moron, that is why DaS is the superior game in the genre. Dark Souls have weight and momentum to the gameplay, and the pacing, while DaS II is a floaty mess, and Bloodborne gave Miyazaki a brainrot that forces him to make everything quick and weightless ever since.
Dark Souls is for geriatrics
I played sekiro first but my favourite is ds3 and bloodborne and played ds1 last and i must say the exploration and World feel so much natural in 1, 3 has the best bosses and ending and bloodborne has the most unique experience
