Dark Souls 2 gameplay videos of the Dual Swordsman, Temple Knight, Sorcerer and Warrior classes.
Dark Souls 2 remains a divisive entry in the landmark RPG franchise, but Hidetaka Miyazaki believes it led to the success of Elden Ring.
DS2 was fine. While there was a bit of recycling assets or ideas for bosses, it was a bigger more open Dark Souls. The Fume knight boss is one of the hardest bosses in the series until Sekiro and Elden Ring were released.
The problem with Dark Souls 2 was the same problem when a different director takes over for a sequel to an outstanding movie. It typically (there are exceptions) doesn’t have the feel and vision of the previous movie.
I wouldn’t say Dark Souls 2 is terrible. Had Dark Souls 1 never been a thing and we got this, I think it would have been praised more. The problem is it didn’t have the Miyazaki touch to it and felt pretty derivative. The soundtrack is a banger though.
I like DS 2, might even be my favorite of the 3. But it's a hard sell, there's so many obscure things you need to do to make it an enjoyable experience. So always find it hard to recommend, but it is worth the trouble.

The Nerd Stash: “Whether you’re here to gloat about your victories or to see what the fuss is about, we present to you the hardest bosses in the Souls series.”
I'm just as excited about next gen as I am about this game.April can't come soon enough
Thank you for this!
I was not watching even the trailers, after almost ruining Dark Souls 1 due to complete dissecating of every bit of info released... But a few seconds of these won't do no harm. Bweh heh heh heh heh!
Man... the Sorcerer and Dual Swordman look sexy. Can't wait!
Once you get like 4 hours in classes don't even matter though...
That would be cool for the dual swordsman if there was a block using the two swords making like an X, Holding r1 and l1 at same time to use would be sick. Would make them a very viable class to pick.
