I'm completely cognizant of the fact that, as my first Dark Souls game, it has me enraptured in the fact that it was the first game I had played in years that had challenged me. I've since gone on to play and enjoy every Soulslike From has put out (excluding Bloodborne and Demons) - but DS2 just has this little special place in my heart despite being able to objectively point out facets that are better in other games in the catalogue. It's just a cozy feel for me these days, like a warm cup of tea. And I don't really feel that any of the subsequent games followed quite the same direction, imo it's the closest to DS1 of the whole spiritual series. Sekiro gets a huge look-in though, too. That's probably what I would consider my favourite From game now, but DS2 is where the love blossomed and it's where my emotional anchors are.
