Played some DSII today. Yawn. Not a terribly exciting game, too easy. You can't choose your dificulty level either, they make you play on "easy" before you can unlock the veteran mode. Most of the time you don't feel threatened at all, your life gauge barely moves from the max. You get tons of "loot", but 99.9% of it is worthless, so you waste a lot of time examining crap to see if it's worth keeping. Pretty tedious after awhile. I'm about 2/3rds of the way through already so I'll probably follow through and finish it. Not recommended.
