Love the game, but I also love Dark Souls 2.

Was wondering why Dark Souls 2 Is loathed by some fans and Dark Souls 3 is venerated by the those same fans?

    The thing about souls games, that DS 2 didn't understand, is that they aren't hard on purpose as a gimmick. The difficulty was part of the world building and immersion factor. The story was about a hostile and dangerous world and the game's difficulty reflected that. That's a major issue I have with the sequels that it never seemed to understand.
