Why is Dark Souls 2 such trash?

I'm aware it's no justification for the state of the vanilla game, but DS2's DLCs fixed just about every issue I had with the game, aside from maybe boss design

The B-team really stepped their game up, and Scholar of the First Sin is on par with DS1 IMO

Kinda annoyed me that Miyazaki said he's taking the delayed backstabs and front parry away, like it was a bad thing.

By front parry do you mean guard breaking? Like when someone is turtling and you hit their shield and leave them open for an attack?

I thought that's still in the game. I was watching someone play the alpha and I saw him guard break someone and kill them via execution.

Edit: Found the video. It's the first fight, so in the beginning of the video is where you'll see him guard break his opponent.

Oh wow, it is. Thank you so much for clearing that up.
