I may be speaking from nostalgia, but this was peak Fromsoft post-DeS. Miyazaki did good bringing Tanimura back up front with Elden Ring. I feel like he knows what makes games "fun".
Yes this is awesome, this is what I’ve been looking for. The others just didn’t hit the same maybe, because I felt you were making super strong builds and just running through people with no care. But here you have item switching, guard breaking and backing stabbing; I love it. There’s just so much more to the combat.
I'm really, really disappointed that most of the animation work in DS2 NEVER carried over to DS3 or Elden Ring.
I'm doing a playthrough of DS2 right now while also still playing Elden Ring. There's so, so, so much that I'm honestly flabbergasted was never brought forward to new installments.
Did Miyazaki hate the game just that much? I get that it was developed under his nose sort-of, but it's clear that he developed DS3 off the back of DS1. It's like he didn't even want use the improvements that DS2 brought, just because of the mere fact that they were introduced in DS2.
Ever tried the lion warrior great axe? It's power stanced moves are different then normal great axes but they might be a bit too short for most people's liking.
Oro, this really reminds me of back in 2014 or so. I was 16 or so and I watched your videos RELIGIOUSLY. I still do. But you're mainly the person who made me the PVPer/content creator I am today. It's wild. I've got a weird nostalgic attachment to your videos and this throws me WAY back my dude. I feel like a kid again. I'm 26 and dusty af now.
I think from software denouncing all the amazing things in this game was the biggest failure of the company. Not to mention the pathetic way they perverted powerstancing in elden ring.
What?! Don't tell me DS2 is alive again ?!This would be so cool and awesome. Unfortunately on PS4/PS5 the game was dead last time I played. It felt so weird Watching this give me such amazing nostalgia. Definitely will check the game's activity today.
Seeing this game's PvP is so refreshing every time. Somehow, it still feels like the most balanced and well-paced duel combat in the series while Elden Ring provides quite great PvE experience but I swear, invading and dueling there is such a suffocating jump attack/ashes of war spam fest.

ds2 pvp is superior to all other souls games
Oh Oro… I love it when you return to DS2! I only wish the algorithm felt the same way…
2:50 CLASSIC
Bro you don’t know how much I like the iconic Oroboro signature ”No, no, noooo”
But is it better than Elden Ring?
Dark souls 2 gets hate because it's different. It's blind hate.
I’m assuming Blue Sentinel got an update? 😊
It truly is the best Souls PvP

I can't believe this game is still active. I miss backstep parrys
Here's what makes DS2 PVP awesome.
1. Able to invade solo hosts.
2. Able to invade players that have already killed the boss in the area.
3. Consecutive wins in the arena will give your build a bad ass glow effect as a red and blue invader.
4. Winning in the arena will give you a cracked red eye orb, giving you a good reason to play the arena.
5. Able to punish chugs.
6. Cannot spam roll.
It's insane to me just how bad DS2 sound effects were. Even compared to DS1.
What was this man’s build?????
Was this pc or ps5??
More DS2 PVP ❤
I wish oro and peeve dark souls 2 pure black was out. Always 2024 to look forward to😞
Ds2, where a naked guy with a knife is the scariest opponent.
i think every name in this video had some amount of censorship in it. thank you fromsoft
feels better to swing in dark souls 2. better animations. elden ring sucks. every sword is swung like a tree branch.
omg plz upload more ds2 oro! If you can find invasions that is, idk how quickly you got these invasions but I've missed your DS2 oro's arsenal series
You can't really complain about fishing for backstabs when you fish for parties and guard breaks lol
Huh. I never knew that "ead" was censored. Why?

Man for DS3 being about souls, it sure has some soulless animation and movement. Ds2 has much more personality.
VERY GOOD!
Is this using that pvp anti hacker mod?
I don't like DS2 that much but this was reaaaaaaally fun to watch XD
DS2 has the best emotes ever

ORO AND DS2! A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN!!!
And here I already managed to forget how shit Dark Souls 2 was.

Ah, the classics

the flare and gracefulness put into the praise the sun emote on ds2 is WHY I PLAY THIS GAME
best souls baby
Why people keep saying ds2 had the best pvp can anyone explain
I've spent so much time on the bridge of the Iron Keep
After elden ring this honestly looks very slow and boring. Can’t see anyone coming back to this other than because of nostalgia.
