Review New Game In 2014 Dark Of Souls II

Gameplay Dark  Of Souls II...

"Dark  Of Souls II"

      Players customize the gender and physical features of their character in addition to choosing a starting class, which determine the statistics and equipment that the player begins with, and a starting gift. From a third-person perspective, players explore a continuous, open world. Players are confronted by a persistently hostile environment with unrelenting enemies and bosses – death is a central theme. As enemies are defeated, souls are accumulated, acting as both currency and experience points, with players scaling up various attributes to reflect a certain style of play.

       One major difference in difficulty is that enemies do not respawn indefinitely; after they are defeated a set number of times, they disappear for the remainder of the current playthrough. They can be respawned using a certain item at a bonfire, though this increases difficulty akin to New Game+ mode. This allows players to eventually advance through trial and error. On the other hand, this places strict limits on how much a player can farm for souls and equipment during the first play-through. Another counter-balance is the fact that the player's maximum HP is reduced on every death until it reaches 50% of the full health bar, though this is regained when the player regains their humanity, through use of an item.

       Magic plays a major role of gameplay, with many enemies and bosses being weak to particular forms of damage, such as lightning or fire, either from magical weapons or spells. Both require the player to have a certain skill levels, such as a minimum intelligence to cast a spells or strength to wield a sword, as well as considering the overall weight of the players equipment set

Plot Game Dark Of Souls II....


       The story revolves around a cursed male traveler trying to find a cure for his curse, in the intro of the game it was revealed that he has or had a wife and newborn baby prior to the events of the game.[9] The game's director has mentioned that the sequel is not directly linked to its predecessor story-wise, although they are set in the same world. The director also stated that the concept of time will factor into the story. The story takes place in the land of Drangleic, full of souls to help undead maintain their humanity while fighting the curse of the undead.[10]

        The general story follows the cursed Undead, who is drawn to Drangleic by a compulsion. Within, he meets various characters who've also been drawn to Drangleic to collect souls to hold off the curse, which slowly erases the cursed's memories. Upon arriving in Drangleic by a portal of souls, the Undead meets the Fire Keepers, who give vague information about the curse the player is suffering. The player then arrives in Majula, and meets a herald who urges the player to collect souls to save himself from the curse, including the Four Grand Souls. The reasons for this are slowly revealed, with the implication that the curse, the Kindling of the Flame, and the ascension of Drangleic are part of a cycle. The kingdom of Drangleic rose, under the rule of King Vendrick, who slew the four Great Old Ones, and used their souls to build the kingdom. Afterwards, a woman appeared with threats of an invasion from the Giants across the sea. King Vendrick traveled there and slew the Giants, and made the woman his Queen, using the defeated Giants to build Drangleic Castle. However, his new Queen Regent, Nashandra, was born of a shard of the Father of the Abyss (implied to be Manus, the Father of the Abyss from Dark Souls), and she tricked Vendrick into continuing his experiments with controlling souls, eventually leading to his death.

         After defeating the holders of the Four Great Souls, the player gains access to Drangleic Castle, finding King Vendrick, now an Undead, and collects his Kings Ring, gaining access to the Dragon Shrine and the last living Dragon, who again gives vague information about the continuation of the cycle, due to fate and want, and gives the player the ability to access the memory of the dead Giants. Within the memories, the player relives some of the events of the war with the Giants. The player defeats the giant lord in a memory, which gives them access to the Throne of Want. Within the Throne, the player finds the Emerald Herald, who tells the player she was created by both man and Dragons to escape the cycle, but that the plan failed, and that Nashandra is within the Throne, attempting to corrupt the Shrine of the First Flame to gain the power of the primal flame. After defeating Nashandra, the player sits down on the Throne, while the Herald describes that it is up to the player to either link the Fire once more and continue the cycle, or abandon it.
