i played ds1 some time ago and now i've started ds2 and it's a really good game like i don't get the complaints it's genuinely really similar if anything

you are playing scholar of the first sin which changed the abysmal movement feel.
also ds2 pulled a fake e3 graphical showcase like watchdogs did. This fucked the reputation of the game the most.
There are other things like ADP for example that casuals didn't like too.

It was mainly the movement which they fixed later. The story was less memorable, the level layouts felt more simplistic and often one directional. I started with ds2 so it holds a special place in my heart but ds1 and ds3 were way better made

I can't run past enemies to get to the fog wall they kill me there

it looks great with the lighting mod even if it's unpolished
the guy just added MSAA which is a godsent with the horrid aliasing that game has, even at 4k it still aliases
