Dark Souls II on last-gen systems might appear cheaper, but the content on that version is not as refined, and the graphics not as good. If you have a PS4, Xbox One or PC, Scholar of the First Sin is definitely the way to go. Dark Souls II asks a lot from its players, and gives a lot in return. The game's mind-bogglingly deep character customization and nuanced combat are rewarding, and besting the title's numerous challenges is a joy. Playing the game for a few hours at a time creates an intense sense of focus and determination.
However, while Scholar of the First Sin isn't relaxing, per se, it can be strangely calming. If you're impatient or want a game to help you unwind, this probably isn't for you. If it's your first time going through the game, get ready to replay the same sections over and over, getting just a little bit farther each time, before getting crushed by a grotesque boss and losing most (but not all) of your hard-earned progress. Should Newcomers Get Scholar of the First Sin?Ībsolutely and unreservedly, yes - if you think it's your kind of game. Scholar of the First Sin is, indeed, the kind of game where your reward for beating a boss is an even more difficult boss.) (Fair warning, though: In one early stage, to access an important enemy, you will now have to fight a dragon that shows up out of nowhere. In Dark Souls II, the final boss made sense from thematic and storyline perspectives, but didn't put up much of a fight, especially for players who had already faced down the monstrously tough DLC bosses. Series veterans will also be pleased to know that Scholar of the First Sin includes a new final boss. The game is much more difficult than before, and yet it also feels more balanced and accessible. Tough enemies block your way at first, but former chokepoints are now much easier to get through. Some familiar paths are blocked off until later, and some unfamiliar ones open up early on.
