Lucas, like many other gamers out there, has a list of games that he wants to love but just can’t stomach up the will to do so. He tells us his top 5 games that no matter how hard he tries he just can’t like as much as everyone else. Are any of them on your list?
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.
And it will happen in the future when he doesn’t touch them as he is planning on.
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.

This should make fans and collectors very happy. PureArts & Ubisoft Announce Assassin’s Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama Assassin's Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama available for pre-order on January 25.
Don't feel bad about Saints Row The Third
That game was ass!
RTS is most of the time anal with micromanaging stuff. I can really enjoy an RTS if done right, but it's def not a genre for everyone
Dark Souls ... yeah, I think everyone should AT LEAST try it. If you don't well, thats completely understandable.
For me personally, I want to like Shadow of The Colossus. I beat the game twice, I just dont get it. Gameplay is very mediocre, story depends on what you make of it, ending is rather weak, characters not fleshed out one bit, world is huge with nothing in it. Colossi are cool, but extremely underwhelming. Never died once and beat them real easy =/
I really tried to like Lone Survivor but i just couldn't get into it.
The World Ends With You was another game that everybody recommend for me since i was suffering from buyers remorse with the disappointing DS, but again i couldn't get into it.
Feel the say way with RTS.
I'm gonna go with Titanfall. The foundation is there for something really good but overall the game is very mediocre. Incredibly fun for a week or so then it's back to battlefield. I should enjoy this game because it is CoD without the bulls$&t but it just does not have the content to keep me coming back.
I should also enjoy Killzone SF but I feel like the game is half the game Killzone 3 was and certainly not on the level of KZ2.
