The Pursuer is an asshole. Especially because he kept showing up. I've started playing DSII: SotFS again thanks largely to Dan's DS stream. The early parts of it were tough (especially if it's your first Souls game as it was for me). Ultimately, Heide's Tower of Flame was one of my favorite areas I've played through, along with No Man's Wharf and the Iron Keep. The Gutter is the only area I've hated. I'm currently in Drangleic Castle working on permadeath-ing the Ruin Sentinels. The Bandit Axe and Drangleic Set got me through much of the game to date. I'm still using the Bandit Axe +10 because the damage/speed/stamina combo is hard to beat, but moved on to wearing the Alonne Knight Set, which I like a whole lot.
I've enjoyed SotFS. Some people may call it the worst Souls game or whatever, but it's still a very good game from what I've played of it. I need to finish it, and maybe I'll stop being so grind-y and stop worrying about permadeathing everything I can to get it done, especially since I'm finding more and more enemies that respawn forever. I could easily run through the rest of the game on current stats because I'm overleveled as hell, but I've enjoyed the way I've played it. Wiping out all the enemies in an area (when possible) is still fun to me. I'm glad to be getting back into it. I'd like to finish it before DSIII and be a part of the crowd playing through that at launch, but I don't know if that's going to happen. We'll see.
