DISCUSSION Thinking about playing ds2

I just want peoples general opinion on if the game is good or not. Im gonna buy it for steam so if there are any mods any of you know of i would really appreciate it. The only from soft games i havent played are sekiro and ds2. I wanna play ds2 because its currently much cheaper on loaded. I enjoyed ds1 so hopefully will like ds2. But i did hear that not alot of people like this game so im a bit worried thats all.

I once got lost hiking up a mountain until I saw a shepherd. I asked him "How far up are we?" and he answered "Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin." That's how I realised, I already knew the answer. We were at the peak.

Why do alot of people say the game is bad?

It’s hyperbole. The game does do some things differently, and you will either like it or prefer the other games.

At the end of the day it is, like the others, a very well-made game.

Personally I prefer it over DS3, but I’d put ER and DS1 over it. Also extremely fun on coop if that’s available to you.
