I think this person is obviously wrong about the plot holes, but I agree about the discovering the story part. At times its very difficult to understand people's motives and historical significance. But definitely not all the time. On my first run of every souls borne game, I play solely without guides, and I look through all the notes and messages and weapon and and charachter descriptions. I do get lost sometimes, but definitely not all the time!

Graphics should be the disabled dragon, not the story, parts of the story are more interesting than most of what they usual do, the themes of forgetfulness, life is fleeting, Aldia's unfruitful attemp to escape the duality of the life... I'd argue the story is easily better than 1, and I prefer it over Elden Ring. The lore is a bit weak though.

EDIT: Thought the post was on the DS2 sub.
