Here's everything we know so far about Dark Souls 2
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.”
We don't know much. Speculation for the most part. Nice read though.
I know its not planned for the rubbish Wii u at the moment. I do hope for a vita version though. I'd actually love to have a vita version of multiplatform games because I'd buy a lot of them. I love the portability of the vita and that gaming experience doesn't have to be diminished because its a powerful handheld capable of a lot
With the Wii I ignore all negative points because I was a big new fan but while I was pretending to like games on the Wii, I was having a terrible time because of bad graphics, bland environments, predictable enemies, bad frame rates, bad controls and other things. I wasn't a fan of microsoft or Sony and realized after playing a lot of their games that they are better made games and the online infrastructure was amazing. I went around telling people Wii is awesome but it was pure rubbish. I was just making excuses because I was young and silly.
The Wii u is basically going down the same path as the Wii and they share a lot of similarities. Wii success was a fluke because it cost a third of the price of a ps3 and half the price of the Xbox. If Wii wasn't a massive success for Nintendo and they didn't think the fans would stand for rubbish hardware, the Wii u would have been designed a lot better. All the sales of the Wii lead to a lot of rubbish games also and xbox and ps3 has eclipsed the quality of good games on the wii. Nes fans tout sales sales sales but barely play any good games. Nothing is wrong with traditional controller but Nintendo said Wii mote is better then made two controllers that is akin to the traditional controller like ds3.
I'm not into hype and Wii u has launched with weak hardware and little exclusive games. Third party devs already are ignoring the wii u
what you don't know can fill a warehouse.
