About this product
Product Information
From Software's critically acclaimed and enigmatic action RPG series returns with improved graphics and sound and a greater focus on Covenants and online interactions in Dark Souls II. Players create a character and allocate stats into a variety of base skills, then head off into a dark and incredibly dangerous world in hopes of ending the suffering of their cursed protagonist. As always, the souls of fallen enemies serve as both the in-game currency and the only means of levelling, forcing gamers to choose between improving their character and purchasing vital items.<br><br>Souls are hard-won but easily lost in Dark Souls II, thanks to strong enemies who capitalize on any mistake, and giant, brutal bosses who can kill in a variety of ways and break from attack patterns at unexpected times. Players also lose all of their acquired souls whenever they die and can only retrieve them by returning to the location of their death without dying again. Though an open-world game in the sense that players can generally choose where they want to go at any time, the connected environments tend to be serpentine and full of locked areas that eventually spit gamers out where they started. Areas of complete darkness are far more prevalent in Dark Souls II because the designers wanted to force users to choose between protection in the form of a weapon or shield and visibility in the form of a torch. Bonfires return as checkpoints, and in Dark Souls II they can also be used for fast travel, but they remain rare island oases amidst a seemingly unending sea of despair.<br><br>Online interactions are a key part of the Dark Souls experience, and players can once again examine bloodstains to see how other gamers died, read dozens of helpful (or deliberately misleading) messages scrawled on the ground by other players, or invade the adventures of one another. But where Dark Souls only allowed for invasions when gamers were in human form, Dark Souls II makes no such distinction. Players can be invaded when in their cursed Hollow form, and every time they die while Hollow their maximum Health Points decrease slightly, until they return to human form. The increased emphasis on Covenants was designed to spur online interactions, with each Covenant offering meaningful items, benefits, and PvP powers.Product Identifiers

Sweet Dreadful Moments
Nothing like that sense of dread of what lies in the next room. I've already died so many times in this game, even as I try to pad my character with some early game farming for what lies ahead. And I love it. Soon I'll be pressing forward to discover all of the incredible areas and ridiculous difficulties of this game and I'm excited for it! I will say that I have encountered a few bogus hit boxes (and reworked my tactics around them) and I know that this game lacks some of the grandeur of the original, but it holds up its own identity and is a great souls game (so far).Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A conundrum of a game.
This game is good. Its creative, visually impressive, and in a lot of ways, smart with its assets. But its just so obnoxiously difficult. I want more story and less agitating grind-work. The bosses are amazing, but they're sometimes easier to beat than the stupid swarms of grunts that precede them. If you want to dump 80 hours into an anger fest and trash a few controllers on the way, I'd recommend it. Otherwise, just grab something with a legitimate narrative and investment in the story.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Nice Part 2 to the Dark Souls Game set
As with all the DS games, this one is very challenging at first. But you quickly build up a character of your own devising. Game itself has some frustrating changes from the original, but overall it's a great play and definitely worth getting!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Series!
I love the entire Dark Souls series. All the DS games are challenging, fast-paced, and very submersive. Easily my favorite games for the simple fact of how punishing yet rewarding they are. Praise the sun!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It's the Hardest game ever.
This game is supposed to be impossible and it is! It took me 45 minutes to move 10 feet, but I'm getting better. Compelling and fun to negotiate through. It may take me forever to make it through.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great game. Not backwards compatible though
This is an amazing game and I would encourage buying it but unlike dark souls 1 it is not backwards compatible so buy this only if you have an Xbox 360Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
