Compared to the first part, it looks more interesting, even more atmospheric and detailed in places. In addition, some kind of balance appeared in the fights: we are not just humiliated, we are occasionally given a chance to win. And this at least somehow began to encourage me to play a series of these games, I even had a desire to go through the first part, even though it was terribly tough. Yes, here at the very beginning we are not allowed to breathe in and out calmly; in the first part it was quite easy to deal with the very first boss. But then the build-up helped almost nothing, you got it everywhere and always, and occasionally you fell into the textures and died just like that. The power of the character is already felt here. As the level increases, you get hit in the face a little… Read full

Not a single normal review on the site.

None of the commentators beat the game in any way. We're not even talking about soloing all the bosses, ALL of them. They didn't even find them.

Until you have completed the game from the Froms, your score does not matter.

So . After 2 full playthroughs of all the DLS of all the bosses, including the one-shot of the ancient dragon and the one hiding in the darkness, one was on a pad and the other on a keyboard-mouse.

+ I completed half the game on ng+ and am sure that I will reach ng+2.

So . This game is the most disliked by fans of the series of games from this studio.

But since the average ai kyu of the CIS countries is 97, what exactly should we expect? People who have no idea about game design and game mechanics think in extremely simple terms.

The game started, I was very drawn in, I haven’t completed it completely yet, I only played for 20 hours, but I enjoy the process of passing and sometimes I am surprised by new things and views

The Dark Souls games are quite unusual. In what other game will you die halfway through the game? I avoided the game for a very long time, having heard a lot about the ass-busting action of the game, but curiosity still won, and I played it. As it turns out, the game is not that difficult. All that is required from the player is attentiveness and caution. You won’t be able to run through levels like in other modern games. Of course, the game cannot boast of graphics, which is a small minus. Also, this game has a simply wonderful presentation of the plot. No one explains what is happening here, and simply by killing the bosses the player is unlikely to understand the plot. The whole plot here is presented with the help of objects, the description of which tells about what is happening in th… Read full

Dark Souls 2 is a game that has both good and bad. I walked around for a long time, thinking that this is a very difficult game, played either by masochists or by old people who have completed games with 3 lives. But, as expected, curiosity got the better of me and I decided to play. Of course, in the game, many are indignant at the large number of deaths, but one way or another you will die and you will do it often. The locations are well designed, of course there are plenty of enemies, but there are also “bonuses” in the form of rare things in chests or hidden “secrets” with souls. Bosses are a completely different matter. One boss can be completed on the first try, but the second one will take you several hours. There is a wide variety of loot that needs to be well selected to suit your… Read full

I've heard a lot about Dark Souls, but I only got around to playing it now. For a long time I wanted to take a look at the famous “hardcore”, to move away from the incredibly simple modern games.

The first thing that catches your eye when you start the game... are the black stripes. If you do not have a widescreen monitor, the picture will be narrowed and uncomfortable. But you'll have to get used to it, EVERYTHING in this game is inconvenient. If you're planning to play with a keyboard and mouse like any other normal PC game, then get ready for another bunch of inconveniences. The game doesn’t care that you have a keyboard, it will show you hints with the gamepad buttons (the green xvoh A, for example, instead of Enter). When starting, you definitely need to change the standard settings - … Read full

Having played the first part, but not having mastered it to the end for a number of reasons, I learned about Dark Souls 2, and pushed by the words of the developers that the game would be much optimized and more welcoming to beginners, I decided to try again to immerse myself in this hard and harsh world.

In anticipation of the fact that I would finally be able to complete at least the second part of Dark Souls, I started the game with trepidation and wanted to start playing as soon as possible. To my great regret, I saw that Dark Souls 2 remained virtually unchanged from the original game, although on the other hand this would be a definite plus. It was hard to play, and even the experience gained from the previous part didn’t really help. Time flew by, I died and died, but I didn’t give u… Read full

Not a bad successor to the first part - difficult, perhaps more difficult than the first; atmospheric, although it is not the same as in the first part; there are many bosses who feel euphoric after being killed; good music, but still not as memorable as you know where; replayable; It's quite entertaining to fight with friends against a common enemy or against each other.

8.6

The first game in the series that I played. The first game I bought after playing more than 150 hours of pirated games (I confess, but I don’t do that anymore, licensed games). The first game in which I really had to work hard (since before that I didn’t like to play this kind of game and didn’t have the skills). The first game I completed with every class (and some up to NG+3). At the moment I've played about 1000 hours and most likely I'll get through it somehow. The game is not a masterpiece, but it is somehow catchy. I definitely recommend it to everyone.

Worse than the first part. And not because she is “friendlier”.

The first part was loved by fans, first of all, for its magnificent world, excellent combat system, art design, challenge, but everything in this game was done worse. Let me explain to you why.

Let's start with the world. The plot of the first part affected the entire mythology of this world, starting from great people and gods, ending with the great destruction of the past world. Here the entire plot is focused on one kingdom. He is interesting, I don’t argue, but it was much more interesting for me to listen about the death of the whole world and its subsequent life than about the kingdom’s war with the giants.

The combat system remained unchanged, but a number of strikes, sheaths, kicks, in general, some elements were changed… Read full
