It is hated simply for being too experimental in a series that keeps becoming more and more homogenized.
it's literally only hated because youtubers told everybody that hackazaki didn't direct it.
What if they intentionally included goofy parts to keep myazaki valued. Cynic thought, but still.
It's the main reason why celebrity worshippers like Redditmatosis dislike it
>you shouldn't hate it just because a youtube told you so >:(
>you should like it because I told you so >:(
Correct.
It's literally because of the MMO tier monster designs, repeated content from past games, awkward movement and melee combat, and lack of cohesive visual design or anything of artistic value. Ironically the best thing about the game is that it puts you in lots of gank clusterfrick situations which requires a more fun type of skill than the typical 1v1 fights the series focuses on now.
No.
DS1, DS3, Sekiro, ER...dont have lighting half this good but somehow it's 2's fault for being the only one with dynamic lighting. Amazing moron fanbase.

Is it the worst game ever made? Of course not. It's still a Souls game and is enjoyable enough for one playthrough. But it's a goddamn mess.
Hitboxes aren't shit. Enemies just have invincibility frames during a dodge, same as you. Some of these are legit criticisms tbf tho
Post gutter dog attack webm, disingenuous troon
Don’t forget gems like durability being tied to frame rate and basic attack animations that drag the weapon along the ground and frick it up. Also not a fan of them releasing the same game on PC twice instead of patching it, though at this point they’ve done that to the original dark souls as well.
it has plenty of problems but it's great exactly because it takes risks
All soulscuck games should be hated. Seriously frick these piles of shit.
seethe tendie
based, everyone'll forget about these losers again once zelda takes home goty. again.
No. Its genuinely terrible because they missed all the points of why dark souls was good, instead they made a epic le hard game.
It's the easiest one tho
its tedious trash, you're right its not hard at all. Which makes it even more pathetic.
the level design is just so uninspired and full of giant square rooms full of repeating textures. its right up there with kings field 1
Explicitly contrarian game design is not 'experimental', it's just stupid and makes you look stupid
I really enjoyed the DLC but even then, most of it would be better with 50% less enemies. I don't know why they thought they had to put all the enemies everywhere.
>I don't know why they thought they had to put all the enemies everywhere.
I read that the lead designer was being blackmailed by the japanese mafia and they told him that if he didnt put more monsters in the game, they were gonna expose his gambling addiction
>you hated it because it was too experimental
>you hated it because big bad youtube said so
all we're missing is now is "you hated it because it was too hard for you" and we'll have the trifecta of the most moronic, tired, substanceless dark souls 2 defences.
>unironically telling everybody you got filtered by ds2's difficulty
DS2 is one of the best Souls games. Don't care about some low resolution trees or textures on a ceiling. The gameplay has the perfect speed, all playstyles are viable, tons of build variety, the best armor in the series, functioning multiplayer, the best DLC, hundreds of hours of gameplay on your first run alone. It even attempted a semi-interesting story that wasn't le fire fades. Awesome game
gee I wonder why this moron casual fanbase doesn't like it and just watches youtube videos
