Forums - Gaming - Dark Souls 2 beta impressions

Those who have played it what were your impressions?

 

I was unable to connect with any other players so went solo, and found it to be a little on the easy side compared to previous souls titles. I hope they beef up the enemies cause if I was able to summon other players I would have flew through that section of the game.

Vaati and ENB both did impression on their hands on. Both have said they can't wait till the full retail :) That being said, it wasn't actually beta but rather a network stress test wasn't it? The demo was loaded with healing gems and upgraded armor/weapons, that being said a lot of sites have reported that the difficulty was still there.

I downloaded the beta but i could get pass the title screen cause it told me to download the latest version which i did so i thought to myself what if they wanted me to beta test the game's title screen. I thought it was ok I mean they reused the same title screen as the original just added a number 2 at the end of it. That just seems so lazy.

Yeah guess it was more of a stress test, but it was really long for what it was, managed to kill a boss by myself and a truck load of enemies with ease. I thought it was awesome though and I love the Souls franchise, I consider them to be the best franchise of the 7th gen and will be picking up the collectors edition day one.

They'll probably change that but I "lol'd" when I read that xD

Title screen was hard.

Namco screwed over NA (and South America apparently) players. We couldn't play at all.


DUDE. That melting candle load screen was the hardest boss I've ever faced 0.o

Some places, I got a good hour and a half then once I died they booted me.



Masterpiece and perfection. I had a sweet hour until I died on the skelly boss.
