Disregarding lack of time, that is. Is there any particular mechanic you were not fond of? Was a game too difficult for you? Was it the overall enjoyment of the game?

Pic totally unrelated :]

Lords of the Fallen (remake) just felt a little too floaty to me. I might have ended up liking the game if I gave it more of a shot, but the very first boss was enough for me already. Maybe I’ll get back to it at some point, but I doubt it

    I think I tried Dark Souls 2 for half an hour before I realised I’m too dopamine-deprived and not patient enough by far for this type of game. I admire anyone who makes it through even one souls-like.

      It’s an unpopular opinion in the community, but I like ds2. I dunno what order I put in it with the all the others from fromsoft, they all got their own charm to me. DS2 's main one is it’s the only one that’s optimized to any degree! That souls is as about as resource intensive as portal 2! The igpus I’ve seen it getting 60 fps on are fucking crazy!

        I think DS2 has been getting more appreciation in recent years, it got slandered hard by a content hate train back in the 2010s with people like Mauler and in the early 2020s by FeebleKing. I think most people now acknowledge that its a good game, just not most people’s favorite.

        It is my personal favorite tho. Way more chill than 3 or Elden Ring imo.
