I'm surprised many people found Dark Souls 2 to be a hard game. I found it to be the easiest of the Souls games. for most of the game i wondering if I was even playing Souls. The boss move-sets were so simple and basic that i could literally hold up a shield and walk circles around a boss to avoid taking damage. Most of the bosses I beat first try. I will say I haven't played through the DLC yet though so i don't know how hard those bosses compare to the main game.

I did find DS2 enjoyable though. I liked the variety it had in environments compared to the other games. the bonfire ascetics was a cool feature. and the weapon and armor sets are the best looking in the series. I also liked the visual/art direction of the game and I think the game holds up very well graphically.
