It has bad bosses? Yes, so does every other Souls game. DS2 can be obute? Of course it can, so can the other Souls game. The main problem of DS2 is that it stretches its weak areas too much, instead of keeping them as short as possible (other Souls game do this as well, but DS2 does more).Īnd the funny thing is that a lot of the criticism aimed at DS2 from players that like the other Souls game are the same aimed at the other Souls game by people that can't get into them.

Also, there is a reason DS2 offer three weapon slots from DS1's two, the bow is a necessary weapon in this game.Īnd the funny thing is that a lot of the criticism aimed at DS2 from players that like the other Souls game are the same aimed at the other Souls game by people that can't get into them. Getting to each magic throwing fairy is a smal puzzle that the player must overcome, that's why their projectiles are so slow and easy to dodge. The thing about DS2 is that it's balanced differently than the other Souls game, and so, you have to adapt yourself to it and that can take a while. You have some weak bosses, for example, but also strong ones. Besides the needless mechanic to increase the iFrames from the roll, I'd say everything in the OP are not problems that shackle the game.
