Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin screenshots and new info

[D-V-ANT]

f***ing s***. I got all excited to play the first DLC Crown of the Iron King, but I'm not excited anymore now that Ive gotten there. I'm getting my ass kicked. This is end game content. Nothing for my whimpy level 90 guy.

After about 20 deaths in the same area, I said f*** it and continued with the main story, which brought me to the dreaded Shaded Woods. I hated this area before and I hate it even more now. The whole area, not just the fog area, is full of those pesky ghosts in this version.

I lost motivation to keep playing because the next few areas past Shaded Woods just aren't fun at all. I'd love to skip The Black Gulch, The Gutter, The Doors of Pharros, and Brightstone Cove and just go straight to Drangleic Castle.

p****.

;-)

Shaded Woods was a right pain though. The Ghosts are the worst. I used a bonfire ascetic there as well to get a ring drop from the scorpion boss. Let me tell you... That was no picnic.
I beat the gutter, black gulch, Drangleic and brightstone over the weekend and they weren't too bad. I skipped the two rat boss fights for the moment though. Only got invaded once in Doors of pharros and managed to kill that guy. Then I just rang past the area.
