A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I'm playing through DS2 right now and I'm loving it. Still can't understand why people say DS2 was bad. For me at least, it seems DS2 is just more DS1 with few changes. Which is great, since I loved DS1
The only real argument I’ve heard against DS2 that I can agree with is the levels sometimes didn’t make sense. You’d be in a mountaintops area, take an elevator up and suddenly you’re in an underground lair (probably not exactly that example but you get the idea, it did have weird stuff like that I just can’t remember them now because it’s been a while). That being said, the game itself is still really good. Some people simply don’t like it because Miyazaki didn’t work on it, which I feel is an unfair argument. FromSoft did a great job with the game even without him directing it
