Oh I do love Souls conversations. Though I don't disagree with you. Dark Souls 2 overall is still a good game, just fall shorts of what Dark Souls provided. Not to say it doesn't do some things better, it still has the best multiplayer aspect between all the Souls games. The DLC also helped boost some of aspects of the main game along with the re-release that worked on the enemy placement. Old Ivory King probably sits somewhere in my top ten Soul bosses and I wish Dark Souls 3 had provided one boss similar to that since it was such an interesting fight with its mechanics.
So like you said, indeed, a poor sequel? Yes. A bad game? Far from it.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy playing the game quiet a bit with some online friends and have a good time. But at the same time the overall hype for the game was way over the top and no where near close of deserving a game of the year award. Is it fun? Definitely but it lacks content. The PvE events are great but only come during events like at this time where the Junkenstein Event has come back. Of course it will remain for three weeks and then be gone. There needs to be a PvE mode that stays year round but then the problem I guess with that would be how the arcade stuff is run currently and how it constantly switches out modes or sometime keeps modes that stay longer far more then they deserve. SR in competitive is a downright chore to deal with which is why I don't touch competitive minus the ten matches needed to get your rank. Balancing currently seems all over the place but leans heavily towards DPS characters it feels.
