Besides look what happened to King Harrowmont or Ned Stark from Game of Thrones. Alistair knows how to swing a sword but doesn't know squat about ruling a nation or being King. Anora has 5 years of experience ruling the nation and has already proven to be a capable ruler. I wish the boss fights, and even the normal enemies, were a little tougher-Old Iron King feels far easier than Sunken King, which arrived alongside big balance changes to the combat-but just because pro players won't die repeatedly at fog gates doesn't mean they shouldn't play this. I would choose Anora for the throne over Alistair any day. I like that these DLC packs reward faithful Dark Souls 2 players, not just with new challenges but with improved items and equipment.
None of this changes the game dramatically: Crown of the Old Iron King still plays like Dark Souls 2, even if the focus is more on the area I'm exploring than the boss I'm trying to dodge.
The boss isn't the point this time around-the world is. That rewards playing methodically instead of rushing past enemies to get to the boss. The other areas are tucked away, and while they're not required, they contain new items, spells, and weapons From has hidden away. The path to the one required boss before you grab the crown is surprisingly straightforward-especially compared to Crown of the Sunken King.
That's important, because I had to focus on exploration to get the most of this new area.
