Another entry in the Dark Souls series.
Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 2 Scholar Of The First Sin are distinct entries in the same series, each offering unique gameplay experiences. Dark Souls 2 is known for its challenging combat and deep lore, while the Scholar version focuses on a scholarly approach to defeating enemies. Since you already enjoy Dark Souls 3, it might be worth considering if you're looking for variety or new challenges beyond the main series.
The ideal person is someone who understands the nuances, with expansions built right in instead of purchasing DS II and then getting the DLCs.
On PC, DS2 doesn't perform well (especially with kb+m). I attempted to play it but quit and returned to DS3, which I've already finished five times.
You're asking about the specific section or hidden parts you're interested in. Could you clarify which area you mean?
I recommend beginning with Dark Souls 1, especially with the DSFix version. Dark Souls 2 feels quite distinct from the others—it's still enjoyable but stands out more as an outlier. While it remains a solid title, it's often seen as the odd one out compared to the rest of the series. I don't advise completely avoiding it, but DS1 should be a priority if you enjoyed 3. I've played both DS1 and DS3 for over a hundred hours each. I only recently acquired DS2 during the Steam winter sale and have struggled with its timing mechanics.
I think you're referring to the Undead Settlement which is only the second major area of the game. I'm not sure I can put a percentage on the amount of the game you've completed, but you've probably only fought two bosses by this point and the base game has 19 with two more in the DLC. You've got a long, long way to go if you've only been that far. My first DS3 playthrough was about 80 hours if I remember correctly, although later runs were more like 20–30.
