  DS2 has the superior Faraam set and Majula is absolutely gorgeous lending itself to a superior fashion souls experience

  I really hope this channel blows up and we keep getting videos like this series. I&apos;ve spent so long watching every single dark souls videos that exists and this was so refreshing in a special way.

  Truly a lovely little series that I just happened to stumble upon. I know the title is mainly a joke but never think for a moment that you haven’t created something special.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2AopZHLLOg&amp;t=479">7:59</a> if you kill the spear guy guarding the dragon you can in fact sprint straight through before he starts breathing fire onto the bridge. This works for me every playthrough.

  This was a good watch, though I have one thing to say.<br>The way the dragon enemies work in the Dragon Shrine is different in Scholar; you&apos;re meant to kill the enemy near every group of them so they&apos;ll be passive, and the same applies to the group on the staircase; you must kill the phantom Dragon Champion who comes down from the top when you arrive so that the dragons on the side respect you. They also aggro if you hit them directly.

  It is so refreshing to listen to a DS2 retrospective that doesn&apos;t just shit all over the game. &nbsp;Scholar of the First Sin was the first Souls game that I beat, shortly after attempting BB and not getting through the first mob of Yharnamites near the crucified beast. &nbsp;DS2 taught me a lot about how Souls combat actually works and after DS2 I went back to BB and got platinum and then got DS3 and beat that thang too. &nbsp;These games are magical.

  I came back to DS2 after nonstop elden ring, I found it so refreshing and honestly more fun, just have to be more patient

  I have noticed what you mentioned bout the graphics being a little bit off and I personally feel like it’s best described as looking more cartoony than the other games. I think a big part of why might be the lighting? It seems like alot of textures just dont reflect or react with light the way they do in the other games.

  I think the graphics being &apos;odd&apos; is because many more areas were supposed to be lit with dynamic lighting from your torch, but this feature was dropped. Having a torch in your left hand most of the time was clearly supposed to be a feature - hinted at by the fact that only 2 starting classes have shields - a major change from previous souls games.

  I&apos;m pretty sure the non-aggressive dragon enemies all attack you if you don&apos;t fight the large knight enemies, not whether you attack the dragon.
