Review game Dark Souls 2: Crown Of The Iron King
The new portion of the additional content is not much different from the previous . Somehow, we are again forced to go down the cursed tower, to the very depths, where we are waiting for a dangerous boss.The developers did not respond to the criticism and continue to do for the most part boring locations filled familiar foe in the form of skeletons and other human-like creatures. Whatever it was,Dark Souls 2 still offers a unique adventure with a sophisticated and fun gameplay.
This time, it tells the story of Iron King. We killed it in the storyline, as he has long been turned into a giant horned demon. But it was not always.
Long ago, a little-known Lord supported by the famous knight Sir Alon. Thanks to him, the Lord began to produce iron in large quantities, and its impact on the surrounding land began to grow. The thirst for power of the Iron King was great, and he demanded to go deeper and deeper in search of new deposits. As a result, miners have found something that has forever changed the land around.
Usual for the series, details the history hidden in the descriptions of objects and vague conversations.The good news is that developers tend to talk about all the important characters of the universe Dark Souls 2. At this time we are told the story of Sir Alon of the time when he served as the Iron King.
If the past referred to the addition of the water element, the new portion of the content is attributed to the fire. Developers do not have to invent something new in the behavior of enemies and just added those to whom we all crave less of the meeting – the Giants, perforating unit, kamikaze exploding over and without, as well as magicians. Variety of enemies do not differ, but the conditions of the battle in this supplement are different. At locations are special idols, standing close by reinforcing the monsters. It’s great to complicate life.
Level additions can only pass one way, the other option is not provided, but the number of optional places to visit is huge. But Ash tower could be interesting. Instead of bridges, giant chain operates a variety of mechanisms, all covered with gray ash as a reminder of the curse. Inside, the player will have a series of identical corridors and rooms of stone and steel. So it is better not to pay attention to the environment and worked its way inland.
At the end of the road you will find the main enemy. This is a great knight, but do not let yourself be surprised, looks can be deceiving. His punches are fast, heavily locked, and then completely ignore the shield. In general, the addition demonstrates the futility of this piece of equipment, so it is best to learn how to dodge and roll.
Again, developers are showing their love to the far sight of battle, most difficult battles walking, just firing monsters from around the corner. Bosses in a good complex and interesting. That’s only a third (optional) is not successful, more precisely, in the campaign of Dark Souls 2 he has a twin brother.
New items have turned out to the best of the original, and a variety of existing assemblies characters.Very pleased with the special ring that turns the hero into a real ninja. Travel time, as always, much depends on your personal experience and class, who prefer to play.
Diagnosis
Another portion of the extra content players will be swallowed without any problems. It is made according to the formula of the first courses: standard dungeon, a couple of new types of enemies and interesting outfit. Accuse the developers have something – it’s boring design most locations, and the lack of imagination in the design of the monsters. But still avidly pass up and down and demand a new portion.
Pro:
- Challenging bosses
- Interesting items of equipment
- Location is great secrets
- Several beautiful landscapes
Contra:
- Boring design enemies
- Dull scenery inside the tower
- Skewed towards the rapids are not to everybody’s liking
