Yeah but it's different enough from the other Souls games that it feels unique and special. It's like the most well polished fan overhaul ever. I've played pretty much all the mods and fan overhauls of all the souls games and there's just something about Dark Souls 2 that feels special.
I mean it's still my least favorite entry in the series but. I dunno. Maybe it's the nostalgia though, I remember when it came out I had a friend come over for the weekend and brought his playstation and his TV and we did nothing but co-op most of the game together that weekend. That nostalgia definitely factors into my rosy view of it.
It does have some good co-op, I'll give it that. I've got a friend who loves the game, and I've played hundreds and hundreds of hours of it by now so I know its quirks and flaws and how to get the most out of it, so I still have fun when I play it with him. But I also mercilessly tease him for thinking it's good
