Title: Dark Souls II
Post by: munchiaz on March 13, 2014, 09:03:01 AM
Ok, so Dark Souls II is finally upon us. I know there are a bunch of members here who enjoy the Souls games. So lets discuss the newest one here. I've played about 15 hours worth of the game so far, and i love it, but there are some weird things that set it apart from other souls games. I started out as the swordsman class, and dual wielding is a lot of fun, and adds a lot of tension to fights.
As far as glitches and bugs, i have run into a few. First, a sound glitch has happened to me and others i have talked to. Basically the sound when preforming an action, such as attacking is delayed. Also, since rag doll is gone, i have noticed a lot of breakable objects and bodies getting stuck in walls, or just floating in the air. weird stuff, makes me miss rag doll. The biggest issue i have had so far is when my attack just whiffs. Its clear that i hit the enemy, but for some reason the attack just doesn't connect.
Other than that, I have really enjoyed my time with the game, and it looks a whole lot better than dark souls did.

I'd really like to buy it, but I think I'm gonna wait. I loved Demons Souls and played the shit out of it. It took a while to get into Dark Souls, but I eventually enjoyed that as well. But I'm not sure I wanna go through the abuse again, you know? ;)
I heard the whole rag-doll corpse thing is gone. Is that true?

Yes, rag doll is gone now. From what i have heard it seems like they have gotten rid of this because they wanted dead bodies to stay where they were. Maybe for something that happens later in the game, who knows?
Also look up Vaati Vidya, he also has some awesome beginners, and how to guide videos on youtube

Dark Souls was $5 on XBL a few months ago. That's where I got it. I preferred Demons Souls, but either way is fine.

I would suggest Dark Souls. Demon's souls and dark souls play the same. But Dark souls is more refined. Also if you only have a 360 you cant play demon's souls

I'm about 25-30 hours in so far. Really enjoying exploring this new world, and unraveling its secrets.
