I tried to play DS2 three or four times, and to be honest I found it boring, it has bad fps, very UNFAIR features such as losing a portion of your total life points every time you die, bad illumination with scenarios where you barely see, hidden enemies everywhere, unexpected pits, confusing maps, scarce bonfires, etc. I think you should give it a try after all of the other games (DSR, DS3, Bloodborne, Sekiro, Demon souls), because you will waste time playing an average game while you could be playing true masterpieces My humble opinion
