I played DS2 when I was a kid as one of my first RPG games ever and didn't know anything about the game, so I didn't know how to increase my equipment load and not to fat roll so I was playing with low level light gear and I also didn't know that weapons have stat requirements to use so I was basically stuck the whole game with this Axe I found in the early game and completed the whole game with it and I enjoyed every moment of it and that's why to this day DS2 is my favorite FromSoft game.
