:marseydownvote: DS2 feels like a weird fan-made mod, it's good if you want to fight 200 bosses with no rhyme or reason but I didn't like it.

DS2 feels like an early indie soulslike. It feels more like something like The Surge than Dark Souls.

It sorta is. It's by a different director, and I think he was obviously inspired by Dark Souls and the old 90s butthole From games. But I'd argue DS3 is more of a fan-game than DS2, as DS3 is just a re-hash of DS1 with more funding and better expectations, even if it's the same guy. So much of DS3 just feels like they were trying to remind you of DS1.

Meanwhile, DS2 is schizophrenic and gigantic. It's got a billion bosses (don't think one of them is any good); a million locations (each one of them incredible, and tangentially related to the others); and somehow coherent incoherent lore comparable to Elden Ring.

If you haven't played all of Scholar of the First Sin, then I pity you.

DS3 bosses >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> DS2 bosses though lol no competition.

I've tried to play DS2 "properly" three times. I always get ~40 hours in feeling pretty good, exploring everything, doing the side quests etc, and then I lose the will to live and rush to the final boss. I can't remember which part specifically makes me want to stop playing, maybe it's around the dragon lair bit with all the bridges and little sky islands?

Oh, that's, like, 80%-through. The dragons area, yeah. That's like the very beginning of the late-game. I'd say you've basically done the games properly.

Two of the DLCs are great; the winter one's forelorn and cool but not worth playing more than once, and all the bosses are extra bad. But yeah, sounds like you're qualified enough to hate DS2 lol

Play it one one of the harder difficulties and remember to alchemy max for a more immersive experience. I regret only playing it on the second hardest difficulty. If you master parrying/countering you will pretty much never need to fear human enemies.

Seriously, someone should send those Redanian soldiers on the gate outside Novigrad to fight the wild hunt.

Nier's good but you definitely need to do "multiple playthroughs" for it to get its full effect. But really good. One of the only games I don't mute the soundtrack for. The other Nier game got a remake recently so you can check that one out too.

Everything on that list was good or great apart from FF13 which even with my tolerance for overly long JRPGs I absolutely hated. Maybe your power level is greater than mine but if you get 5 hours in and think you're not enjoying yourself, stop there because it does not get better and it's a 50 hour game.
