Board Thread:Dark Souls II/@comment-9375302-20130715224416

With Dark Souls II on the horizon, I thought it'd be ideal to go over what we know so far. Given the amount of information we have been given (don't you love reading the same word twice in a sentence?), what will we come to expect when DSII hits stores?

I for one know that it will be hard (duh) and there will be more emphasis on world scale and dark settings, since the availability of light producing items such as torches will be more easily acquired as opposed to fighting through half the game in the original for a flashlight-bug-hat that will only be used for ten minutes.
