Ranking Every Dark Souls 2 Boss From Worst To Best

33. Old Dragonslayer

Dark souls 2
FromSoftware

This is almost an insult to one of the greatest bosses in video games. The Old Dragonslayer is Ornstein, but with silver armour, dark magic instead of lightning, and absolutely none of the charm of the first game's encounter.

Why? Because Ornstein was easy on his own, it was the addition of Smough made him difficult; a fact that Dark Souls 2 ignores and just chucks Ornstein in for no reason. The only reason he ranks this high is because Ornstein was a pretty good fight, and he still is, even if his appearance is shoehorned in.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
