I don't know how on earth you are supposed to do the second phase of the Judge bitch and Holy Hell is that run up cancer
 
Bilewater.. u tricky bitch ass hoe!..

I found your secret!!! One of them anyway.
 
Beat the game. 71 hours..

Didn’t finish several taskers. Will go back to finish them eventually but this game is done!…

Last boss was surprisingly okay. It was hard but not terribly hard. Took me about 10 attempts I think. A lot less than some earlier bosses for sure..

This game is a 9.0/10. It should be a 8.0 because the grind for resources is annoying as fuck but the sheer size of this game makes up for it. It was frustratingly fun.

Just beat the last boss. Took four attempts. One of the easier fights, and I didn’t use anything besides basic attacks. Definitely thought there would be more to it, but it was fun

Thats the boss i was stuck on the longest so far. i took a break for a few days then came back and beat it quite quickly. Use the item that makes it so you only take 1 damage from fire if you arent already, that helped a lot with the second phase.
 
Meme is on point, IMO, but not to be overthought. SotFS is my favorite Souls (oui, love; there are many of us) but launch edition DS2 was blasted. Problem is meme-maker used wrong cover art for the meme, lazily choosing launch edition. SotFS and HK: S/s = love.
I love Dark Souls 2 as well. Its my most played Souls game, only usurped by Elden Ring.

I was a late bloomer, so I only ever played SOTFS. I did hate it at first though. With the limited directional movement, walking a thin plank was the first real boss.

There were either problems with hitboxes or lag too, causing you to get murked by an attack no where near you.

Some of the level design doesn't make sense as well (Earthen Peak to Iron Keep wtf lol) but outside development hell explaining it, I was under the impression that Drangleic was a dreamword everyone but a few NPC's were unknowingly trapped in.

I couldn't imagine the game without Aldia in it. He added so much to the lore/story, totally shaking things up with Gwyn.

The goat line in the series: "A lie will remain a lie"

Anyway, it sounds like this game has some changes I'll need to get used to as well.

I've been hesitant to fire it up as I'm too busy atm, and this game will ruin my already terrible sleep cycle.
 
Kept at it for one more day and reached act 3 in less than 79 hrs. Found several new areas and new shit that woulda been helpful during my run but whatever. I dicked around for another hour or two before calling it quits. I will get back at this eventually to get the real ending but I must switch over to yotei!
 
Well I am at the citadel now and don't trust myself not to get lost. Seems like a pretty cool place

that is teaching you that the game is going to get harder, great boss fight

also, the run up takes about 30 seconds, i have seen this posted a lot and dont understand
 
Got verdania done, and all the quests available. Just like 4 bosses and it is a wrap.

Definitely started off rough, but I did like act 2 and 3 much more. Cool and varied environments and a lot of different builds to play with, if that is your sort of thing. The music is the biggest misstep imo. Doesn't come close to HK's OST. I enjoyed it a lot though, and would say it is a solid 7.5 or 8.
 
I gave up as well (for now). I made it to Act 2 and its just too aggravating to play right now especially with so many games in the backlog. I feel like the game is artifically longer and more difficult just because of ridiculous enemies and cheap traps. None of this is necessary and makes it much more of a chore to play than it needs to be.
 
Finished Act 3. All bosses down. Solid 8. Got 7 achievements left, with only one not needing another play through, so I think that is it for me and this one for quite sometime.

Last boss was a real B. I couldn’t pay attention to the her and the floor too with it blending in with everything. It was actually the only boss besides Groal that I actively despise. Hoping they keep that cool strange fungi with the next one. That would be out there…
 
Act 3 Trobbio fight is absolute bullshit, 90% of the fight there's like 10% of space on screen where you don't get damaged.
 
I lied again. Kept on playing, gotta find 3 old hearts.. found 3 but one was not one of 3 targets… an extra heart????

Trying to get da last heart and it’s the dancer.. I can’t figure her out.. getting really frustrated.. gonna give it a day and come back. But she is numero uno bullshit. UPDATE: Beat her. Have all the hearts.

Ran a few wish list. Passing of the Age was very.. very annoying.

Now stuck at Trobbio… I agree with the Fraz. He is now numbero uno Bullshit.
