Oh, dark souls 2. How cool you were for the totally wrong reasons.
Dark Souls 2 feels more like a fangame of the original Dark Souls. Hey, you guys liked fast travel, right? Here you go! You wanted dual wielding right? Here you go! You didn't like twinking, right? Soul memory! It goes on.
It results in a game that somehow had the best pvp mechanics in the entire series but its pve fell into the floor. There were some cool things that never really got replicated in the others, such as the sheer mountain of worthwhile things to find and build diversity, but the absolute death of the series atmosphere a long with iframes being tied to a stat AND the boring level design makes it a 60 hour long letdown.
