I haven't played SotFS, but I did play the original DaS2, and while the bosses were easier than the ones in DaS, IMO, the mobs kept whooping my ass.

...so I kept killing them until they stopped spawning.

Shitty bosses that are just dudes in armor. Shitty level designs. Shitty enemy placements. Fucking soul memory. I frames being tied to a stat.

Why it sucks it always brought up. You just ignore it.

First of all, the bosses themselves are not shitty. Secondly, while the ratio of humanoid bosses is higher in this game, it wasn't noticeable to me at all until pointed out, and even then I have never felt like every boss was the same style, and everything was always fresh feeling. I would love to compare numbers and ratios of boss type per game, but Im too busy for that now.

Shitty level designs.
Aside from earthan peak to the volcano thing, the levels were not only gorgeous but interesting and some of the best in the series. All three DLC areas individually were better than anything in DS1. Furthermore, anybody who hates on the linearity aspect of the design must not appreciate Demons souls, and therefore has a bad opinion anyway.

Fucking soul memory.
All of the souls games have shitty matchmaking. Play offline then.

While I do understand this is somewhat shitty, this game isn't bloodborne. Technically i-frames are an exploit, and one that the weak fall back on. Dodge normally or tank with a shield. Its not as big of a problem as people make it out, and a habit that should be avoided instead of perpetuated like it is.

Played through SotFS multiple times. Picked up and got the plat for the vanilla version a few weeks ago, and it felt strange. I will say that in general the rebalancing was well done. It is killing me that I know there was an area that felt superior in the original, but I can't recall what it was right now.

The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

the bosses are the worst in the series which is largely about big epic boss fights, and even if they werent it has by far the most simplistic and boring level design of any souls game. To mask that they cram as many mobs as they can into every area to try to make you not zoom through zones which are legitimately often just a handful of linear hallways

honestly its the other way around, people who love ds2 usually refer to something ephemeral like atmosphere to describe why they like ds2, or the pvp because its the only legitimately good part of ds2.

soul memory's the only genuine bad thing that can't really be argued against. everything else is just complaining that it isn't enough like the first one. like, no shit, it's the sequel for a reason. there's nothing to ignore but bad opinions

I don't like Dark Souls II, but the more experience I have with it, the more I warm up to it and I've always disliked it less than Dark Souls III. Scholar of the First Sin is absolute trash, though. At least the original version has some cohesion in enemy layout that feels "Soulsy" to me. In Scholar of the First Sin they just plop in random shit all over the place for the sake of it. Areas are filled up with enemies from other areas for no reason, which robs each area of its sense of self to just create a giant mishmash. Why is there an undead Chariot in Drangleic Castle? If you have a lore reason, you are lying.

The fact that From is pushing the SotFS edition as the only version of the game on newer hardware is why its my least played Souls game much more so than because of its status in the franchise.
