New Game+ in Dark Souls 3

[(WTH) LogicSauce]

Is anyone-else finding NG+ in Dark Souls 3 really easy? I used the Profaned Greatsword for the most part, then switched over to a luck/dex build and used Anri's Straight Sword. I killed the Nameless King in two attempts with Anri's Straight Sword, which is why I'm here to ask if anyone is finding NG+ disappointing compared to the previous Souls games, in terms of difficulty and new content?

it took you 2 trys at ng+ to beat him? should have been a 1st try -.- ng+ is stupidly easy here. not that it matters as there is barely any reason to do it outside of like 3-4 rings maybe :/

[Brave and Fearless Sir Shiba]

well the only reason is the rings and the achievement that goes with the rings. since +2 and 1 +3 shows up in NG++ other than that its kiiiinda the same. maybe abit more boss hp but the same nonetheless

Hah. I beat Nameless King second try on my first playthrough. Is NG easy because i did?

[Sikkens]

NG+at 120 is easy,NG++at 120 still easy... the scalling is pretty much not existant :/ hope the DLC-s will do something about this.

NG+ in any souls game is easier than your first playthrough just based on your stats. Plus unless you like +1/+2 rings or differently named soul pickups, you have no reason to venture into NG+. Well maybe for cheevos but still.

Well obviously you can do as you please. I just don't find enemies that eventually turn into damage sponges that entertaining.

DS2 gave you incentive to go all the way to NG++. New mobs, red phantoms, boss changes, soul items. It was worth the 2nd and 3rd trip. With DS3 I am stopping with my current build in NG+. the extra rings just aren't worth it.

Dunno if it's easy since I'm fairly used to Souls games by now but it definitely is quite boring (compared to DS2).

It's just that... I usually need to get through NG to finish my build, so i want to enjoy and play it, that's why i play through NG+ instead of making a new character.

Without trying to sound sarcastic, but it is pretty much just like NG.

Spoiled by DS2 I guess... (yep you heard it).

I think I miss-timed my role whne he was summoning the lightning strike, I was at half health and it killed me. If Dark Souls 3 had the same damage and health scaling as it did in Dark Souls, then it would have been a lot tougher.

I was just expecting the Nameless King to be a lot tougher, since took me a few hours to beat him in NG XD

It took me hours to beat him in NG, which suggests that I'm pretty terrible and it was a tough boss, but I was expecting him to be just as difficult in NG+, if not more.
