Why is dark souls 2 the worst game in from softwares souls games.

>worst game

Atleast it has fucking working achievements! Just went through DS3 spent 2 days collecting every ring in NG++ for my last trophy to be a completionist like i was for every other DaS game, hours on hours of grinding just for a wolf ring!
Guess who didn't get the fucking only trophy i need? I tried everything to fix the bug, yet, nothing! (I work sunday-thursday) litteraly fucked all friday up trying to get 30 swordgrass.

Also, the netcode on DaS2 was amazing and the "A" team decided to fuck up invasions on 3, and 1 had shit-tier online support.

because it was a retarded idea from the start to continue a story, that dealt with the end of a world.
It's like making a 2nd Schindler's list movie, where Schindler is gunning down Nazi's, while saying. "Dude, do you remember Ben Kingsley and Fiennes in the first movie?, yeah they don't appear in this one, but we mentioned them"

complete trophy for what purpose?

>>383373082
from this

>clunky robot customization simulator for niche crowd (armored core)
>ugly, clunky rpgs that are the laughing stock of the community (kings shit)

to this

>extremely popular and well celebrated action rpg that everyone loves for its edgynesss and difficulty

how the fuck did this happen? I wasnt even aware this is from software.

They tried to change too much of what worked in DaS1 and it ended up backfiring

>lifegems
>nearly every enemy encounter outside of bosses is a gank / trap
>poor shortcut placement for the most part
>adaptability

Then again maybe I'm just burned out on the series, but going through the zones in DS2 felt more like a chore than anything else.

because they changed their game director to Hidetaka Miyazaki, this guy was to FROM what Miyamoto was to Nintendo. Well except Miyazaki isn't that creative and jerks himself off to every possible repetition and Bezerk reference he can fit in his games

Impressive. I enjoyed Armored Core on the PS2 to be fair, but I did not think From Software would go far.

Because consoles were too weak and namco said 'we don't want other games, you need to do a souls game', so they changed everything.

Look at all the concept art and unused models in the game

consoles - it's always consoles
and publishers

because it was missing that interconnected world map design and didn`t have fast travel all the way until anor londo which created a perfect illusion of going on an adventure and exploring the world, like a true rpg would do
DS3/BB had the same issue with early fast travel but at least BB`s world design was close to that of DS1`s formula

"shouldn`t have had early fast travel like ds1 all the way until anor londo

BB felt closer to Demon's Souls in that regard

It's fine bandai now knows if they ever make a souls game without Miyazaki it won't sell worth shit.
