the vanilla version, played coop the entire game. its very clear its much inferior to SOTFS edition. enemy placements are garbage, the game is way too easy, entire areas left barren, a very poor dark souls 2 experience, dont bother. still better than a lot of other games though

This game takes all the reasons I didn't like dark souls 1 for and makes them 10 times worse. Like holy shit I ain't trying to slog through 14 katana knights just to go fight a mid ass boss.
This game is massive in scope. I love the environments and I really love how much variety it gave you as far as builds. It felt like an adventure in the same way ER does and the combat is definitely better than DS.
Also it kinda got shit on for the level design not being interconnected but idk the actual levels here (minus black gulch which is actually awful) are up to par with some of my favourites in the series.
Just got to NG++ -- Best of the Souls trilogy. Great NPCs, baller kingdom, improved combat and build vesatility. Unmatched aesthetic style, few games manage to feel like a fantasy novel AND the illustrations of pulpy magazines or metal album covers.
but it's just not very good really
why do the big enemies have less health than the small ones

It's peak.
