There is some serious BS in Dark Souls II, the over all game is easier, but there are a lot more environmental hazards. In particular the poision shooting statuse in The Black Gulch need to stay broken, once you smash them in a playhtrough.

However my most painful memories? Fighting the Belfry Gargoyles in the Belfry Luna is one. The similar fight in the first game was a lot easier, having to deal with 3 of those things at any given time, unless you're really fast and take one down before the 3rd/4th/5th activate, makes that fight a real headache.

The entirity of The Gutter was painful too, because navigating that confusing mess makes Blight Town look like a walk in the park. Plus all of the enemies in that area are just flat cheap... The darkness and collapsing floors seal the deal, making navigation of the area a chore. The Iron Keep was irritating, The Gutter just sucks.
