What is DARK SOULS II: Scholar of the First Sin about?
Dark Souls II is set in Drangleic, a ruined kingdom worn down by an undead curse that slowly erodes memory and identity. The player takes the role of the Bearer of the Curse, an undead traveler who comes to the kingdom searching for a way to be cured. In the quiet settlement of Majula, a figure called the Emerald Herald points the Bearer toward gathering powerful souls and seeking out King Vendrick, the land's former ruler. The journey leads across crumbling castles, forgotten crypts, and hostile wilds, where much of the kingdom's history is pieced together indirectly through the people, places, and relics the Bearer encounters. Standing between the traveler and the throne at the kingdom's heart are formidable enemies and the lingering consequences of Drangleic's fall.

“DS2’s difficulty comes largely from enemy placement and there are quite a lot of ganks in the game. So you have to play at a snail’s pace to get through some areas. On top of that, some enemies aggro extremely easily so it exacerbates the gank issue. The bosse…”

“There's not a lot I can say which hasn't already been said, but I will say that this game is just not fun to me. I will finish it, just like I finished the other two, but the best part of this game is the environments, the music and the characters. Those thing…”
