Doesn't do that nearly as much in the second game. But I still like 2 a lot as well. Some people don't though.

Story moments, or gameplay improvements? [Kind of like if you went from Arkham City to Asylum, how relearning the outdated combat system would be tedious.]

[Kind of like if you went from Arkham City to Asylum, how relearning the outdated combat system would be tedious.]Dark Souls 1 definitely plays more clunky, but you would get used to it pretty quickly. It's mostly the same with minor changes on the mechanics side of things. And since the way Dark Souls story works you wont really spoil anything because you have to be reading all the item descriptions and listening to character dialogue, so you wouldn't know a reference if you saw one.

Quote from: Tyger on February 02, 2015, 12:40:35 PMA lot of the dark souls lore in general hits me in the feelsIt's the only game that made be feel conflicted or sad about killing bossesI remember fighting Sif during my first playthrough.It seemed like he had everything, agility, damage, health, and for a a few hours I couldn't best him. But I had a kind of fascination with him, whose grave was he guarding, and why? There was something noble about the entire experience, and despite dying curiosity drove me forward.Eventually I mastered dodging his attacks just from experimenting and observing. Then he started limping. This mighty beast that kicked my ass for hours reduced to its death throes fought on regardless. He reminded me about myself as a player. Why was I there? To get an awesome sword. In the context of the game, however, Sif guarded the last morbid memento of his best friend, and now this noble guardian was lain low by some sunburned douchebag. I felt guilty about the fight, justifying my actions as a player because I needed to progress through the game and survive. Sif taught me something about what it takes to win and some of what you lose to get there.He's the reason I'm under the impression Dark Souls is a good game, it's larger than itself. Tl;dr:Sif taught me something about videogaming and probably life.
