>Takes an elevator UP to a firey castle

This is one HELL of a dream

Painful to see how chopped up this game was. They kinda gave up on optimizing that area, put an elevator in front of it to conceal the loading screen, and just called it a day... never minding how retarded it was.

There's several other elevateors that are close to this dumb e.g Dragon Eyrie - but none that are this dumb.

yeah i thought it was like telporting me to another dimension or doing some magic shit and it was kino of the highest order. then i came online to see 4chins crying about how the game is unfair and the elevator triggered their autism. kek.

those were the days

That lava pit in the Iron King’s arena was the Consort Radahn of DS2.

floating castles are cool as fuck and i refuse to pretend otherwise

There are but 60% of that coolness is actually seeing it floating from the outside.

they could have made the elevator descend instead and it would have made a hell of a lot more sense. why didn't they?

the guy who is making the lighting fix for dark souls 2 actually took out that lava hole in the boss arena. when i learned that i lost all desire to try his mod. I hate when modders make their own personal balance changes into a mod that isnt advertised as a balance changing mod.

Yeah I mean the lava pit is one of those funny things so I don’t know why you’d remove it.

It's not a floating castle, it's a lake of lava hovering in the sky and a castle happens to be in the middle of it. Is it still cool?

DaS2 is pure kino

Maybe the elevator wasn't at the top of that tower but further down the hallway.

So I decided to replay the game cuz I wanted to play some Dark Souls but I don't have the DS1 remaster and I hate the lack of poise in DS3, surprisingly enough DS2 gives me a ton of options to play.

It's a lake of lava on top of a mountain dipshit

>>715697579
wrong, its a lake of lava on top of an invisible mountain on top of an entire sky on top of a windmill

>>715698871
i forgot to add that the lava and elevator to said lava are also invisible!

dogshit game made by time-crunched B-team

Considering they had 2/3 of the game finished, then the director was randomly fired for no reason and they had 6 months to turn a bunch of ready made assets into a game they did a pretty good job with it imo

A few odd level transitions aren't enough for me to say ds2 is bad, it will remain my favourite of the dark souls trilogy despite the autistic whining of a handful of retards

playing it again it really is incredibly deep, i cant tell if i think dark souls 3 is a better game or not even though i like it more.
