Why are you not burning an effigy or playing offline? I agree tho, dks2 giving no effective way out of multiplayer unlike other fromsoft games is pretty cringe
Well having boss dead slides you down in the invasion priority list iirc
That aside, the invasion mechanics weren't made thinking about when a game would be basically dead and people would monopolize areas, and dks2 really gives players no agency in this
ok sure but i mean making “kill the only new players in a dwindling playerbase when they’re just going about their day” an efficent resource grind is dumb lol
What's funny is I can't even tell if I had the same issue cause DS2SFS has so many NPC invaders and I never play online but I distinctly remember that area being awful.
i’m TRYING to fight the gargoyles why are there six billion grey spirits invading me even though i can never get summoned for regular boss fight multiplayer
if you join the bellkeepers and kill 100 people just trying to get by then you unlock custom special body armor that makes it look like you have a diaper on
they all want the diaper armor
I didn't know the covenant even had this gimmick until reading this post because, no joke, I always get so lost when playing DS2 that I have NEVER fought the gargoyles.

At least the matchmaking system is dogshit
But no weapon matchmaking, no armor matchmaking and the way elemental damage works is just stupid
The facehuggers in gulch and the possessed armors in iron DLC are accessible early and midgame already.
Also upgrading weapons is really not a huge difference in dks2 so having a +6 or +10 is only like
20% difference
Wish it was better
Stepped into Grave of Saints
Immediately invaded by a grey spirit
Got poisoned after 3 hits
Died
Disconnected internet
Enjoyed the rest of DS2
