"Dark Souls II will not be significantly different from predecessor with regards to its "core" experiences."

This is really great. The core experiences were what made Demon Souls and Dark Souls so amazing. Dark Souls was one of the best games ever made and can't wait til this comes out.

If I had one suggestion for improvement, I would say that Dark Souls needed more variation for customizing your avatar. Some weapons and gear were completely useless. I wish the magic, occult, and divine weapons were more useful. Still, one of the best gaming experiences I ever had was with Dark Souls. I loved the monsters and enemy mobs.
