Did you attend the MCM London Comic Con last month? Didn’t and wish you had? Well, today Electronic Theatre brings you the opportunity to look through the highlights of the event through the eyes of a gamer: all the biggest videogame titles, the best stands and the best cosplayers from the show floor.
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.”

Power Girl, oh Power Girl. I hope you never come to the big screen. They'll probably give you a "realistic and gritty" costume, and probably be played by an actress that doesn't even come close to a double D cup, let alone have triple Z Kryptonian tig ol' bitties.
I would like to see a fight break out at one of these events.
Just so I could see a group of stormtroopers kick the crap out of pikachu or something.
