    @creepiest-lizard Just to labour this point. It's the manner of her reporting that's winding us up. We've had a constant commentary since the start and it's been bragging about how quickly bosses went down and how shit areas are. Then, declaring what is widely regarded as one of the best bits of DLC out to be "a bit shit" when it transpires that not one bit of attention was given to the point of the DLC, it's story, or fuck all because it's better to rush it. What you're witnessing is frustration from people who clearly love the game. Fans of the game. In an ancient thread mainly now populated by fans of the game. You're shocked by this? Are you new to the internet?

    Yeah , but your decent critical appraisal just comes across as "you have to like it in the same way I do and if you don't you're wrong."

    @creepiest-lizard nothing on the internet is opinion! its all facts, everything is a facts and my facts are always more right than anyone elses, especially more factual than wunty or steve who like the bad dark souls.

    Well you are wrong there. The best thing about these games is the build variation.

    But I don't see how you can say something is 'shite' when you've blasted through it at 100 mph with the easiest build in the game.

    You should try a Faith Paladin build if you do get round to playing a From game again. You're making a decent White Knight.

    Personaly, my facts on the situation are that Bichii made me feel shit at dark souls as i cant beat manus/artorias and kalameet first time even now and i have run through the dlc at least half dozen times.

    @wuntyate
    I do know what you mean. I get annoyed when I recommend a film to my partner and she falls asleep halfway through but what are you going to do? Calling someone a liar or telling them they're playing wrong is just a bit desperate.

    But you shouldnt have to qualify your statements in that way. We're on the internet. Isn't it implied that everything is our opinion?
    A few of us were looking forward to her experiencing the DLC for the first time. What we got was "knight boss dead dragon boss dead one hit everything DLC is a bit shit bloodborne is better wooooo". That's all her opinion. Obviously. But AGAIN, there's no heed paid to the fact that she's in a room full of people that clearly love something but didn't have the courtesy to at least phrase her experience in a way that was a bit more respectful of that fact.

    It's the internet. She doesn't have to be respectful. That's fine. It also means we can react how ever the heck we like. As it's the internet.

    I'm not taking anyone's side. As usual I'm taking my own.

    You're coming across like a real champ too. I've been posting in these threads for donkeys, I've not seen you about.

    That's because you disrespect Dark Souls 2. Manus fucking knows man. He knows.

    Mainly, yes. But sometimes you get people saying something is categorically shit. It causes discussion, naturally. Similar to pub conversations etc

    What are you here for?

    I'm going to be doing my large club run and enjoying this game later and talking about it in here.

    You can carry on white knighting for Revan the art thief and cast iron forum bullshitter if you like pal.

    Not sure why everyone is piling on, she bought the game and she can play it how she wants

    I love Dark Souls but it's not immune from others criticising it. I will probably be quite critical of Sekiro by the end as I am enjoying it but I think some of the systems (prosthetics and combat arts) are almost pointless at this stage

    I don't understand what that last sentence means.
    Are you having some sort of seizure?

    I wonder if the later stages of the main game were somewhat rushed Vs the earlier parts. Areas like demon ruins just don't seem to have anywhere near the same tlc as other sections.

    @retro74 I may as well stay on this carousel here a bit longer.

    It's the manner in which it was said that's wound everyone up. Her opinion is just as valid as everyone elses with the exception of Grax and Quaddy who don't like DS2 so don't count.

    @Bichii They ran out of time / budget for some of the later sections. Lost Izalith especially but definitely Demon Ruins as well.

    @Bichii

    It's been said a few times that the areas after the lord vessel appear rushed and unfinished, like demons ruins, lost izalith etc. It does change somewhat (imo!) afterwards, though I think I'm the only person on here that actually likes lost izalith.

    Revan/pepsipop/bichii is an established wind up bullshitter on this forum. Which is why I'm giving her no slack.

    @quadfather You are. Big Bum City is not my favourite. But the architecture is awesome.

    Then again, thinking about it, the dukes archives certainly does not come across as rushed for me..

    @wuntyate oh she's prone to big statements though. I've been reading through the Sekiro thread as I play through the game and she calls it all the names under the sun 'BS game' and all that sort of thing. And it's her favourite one after BB too

    There's no need for anyone to get wound up, anyway
