This game is definitely the worst of the trilogy, some annoyances were added just to make the experience more frustrating (like the overall health decreasing after each death) but still have some decent boss fights but not nearly as great as the 1st and 3rd games. The graphic sucks aswell.

Sorry guys I'm gonna say it. This. Game is way better than dark souls 1. Its way smoother, the level design (for the most part) is way more fair yet still changeling. The boss fights were heart pounding, the amount of sweat i poured while playing this game could fill an entire swimming pool. That being said... It's still got a bit of the tedium that dark souls 1 had in new more annoying ways. Losing a chunk of your health everytime you die is one of the worst missteps this game makes. Then on top of that you can't even grind for the items that restore your health because enimes stop respawning if you kill them enough times. These 2 mechaniques combined lead to a level of unsecasery stress which bogs down the better parts of the game to a degree. While there are a few other things I loved hated etc. I think I'll leave of by saying I'm pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this game.

Oooh this game. So I went into this game expecting the worst of the worst from what I've heard of this games infamy. Honestly it wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be. The bosses are super easy and easy to break other then the few that are so ungodly unfair and broken. The levels and design were pretty cool and the environments were somewhat interesting. Ending was kinda dumb. Super clunky in the beginning and I kinda hated it but it grew on me as I went further on. No where near as good as the other souls games but still decent enough to play. I need to go back and 100% eventually

Boring and overrated. Even the bugs don't add character.
