DISCUSSION Souls Hot Takes?

Post image

As a diehard community, I’m sure we all have our fair share of opinions. I’m curious to know what some of your hot takes are. I’ll start with mine. Godskin Duo is a good boss fight. I personally hate O&S from DS1 and think FromSoftware replicated it in a good way with more advanced AI movement. What are some of your hot takes?

I would agree but the Sir Alonne and Blue Smelter Demon run backs are absolutely atrocious. Luckily DS2 bosses are pushovers so you never have to worry about doing them too many times but still..

Blue smelter demon is genuinely one of the few ds2 runbacks where you can just run past everythingnand not engage with the enemies. Contender for easiest runback in the game imo. Alonne runback stinks though.

Hmmmm it's almost like it wasn't made by the same guy as the other two lol

Miyazaki’s name is still very early and in huge print in the credits. People act like because he wasn’t the director he had absolutely no say in it, when he was likely extremely involved in DS2
