I agree with a lot of what he says in the video. Honestly, its the world and level design that just got to me. The way areas connected to Majula are blocked off from the start, the lack of continuity when it comes to the world, as well as the horrid, and the just downright not Souls series linear level design. Look at Earthen Peak from Harvest Valley and tell me how the elevator inside goes up to Iron Keep. Dark Souls 1 world flowed together perfectly, you could see the Demon Ruins from the Tomb of the Giants and vice versa. You could look down from Firelink and see Blighttown. The levels in the world fit perfectly together and didn't overlap. In Dark Souls 2, the Shaded Woods breaks off into three paths. But if you're paying attenting, you'll notice they all end up going the same direction. Aldias Keep, Drangelic Castle, and the Shaded Ruins are all right on top of eachother. The actual levels themselves, with the exception of the Forest of the Giants, are all one way path with no shortcuts and a bonfire on every corner like they're Starbucks. Look at the Huntsmans Copse, theres the first bonfire in the area. Then theres about 6 enemies before you run into the next bonfire and for some reason theres a shortcut back to the first bonfire. This is some of the [b]worst[/b] level design I've ever seen in a game. Dark Souls 2 isn't a bad game, its actually one of the better ones to come out in a while. Its just a bad Souls game.
