Dark Souls 2, the game keeps asking me for an update every time I try to play it, I'm not sure if the disc has a problem or maybe my Xbox 360 console but the update will always take around 20 minutes it will make my console restart 1 or 2 times . the game cost me 2 dollars, but I regret not getting a more updated version to avoid this kind of problems Dark Souls being difficult even when you're not playing it. 🤣 2 hours ago, Alyxx said: That's just kind of modern gaming in a nutshell though... To be honest, what @kingpotato just described goes beyond just modern gaming. I've encountered this very same issue with android phones and tablets before so it is more of a modern technological trend - a pretty stupid one though...

True, I mean having to update a game is fairly common and normal, but with this game I have to do it every time I enter the disc. I'm not really sure what the problem is and when I play the game offline it still nags me asking for that damn update its annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its something about the update itself, probably the disc is fine but this issue doesnt happen on PS4 so thats why I regret getting the game on the Xbox 360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its kinda weird, its like the console its not keeping/saving the updates. Every new game that I get for the 360 will always ask me to update, or if I havent played the game in a while it will also ask me to update but this usually takes 2-5 minutes if it needs to restart itself. Its not my connection either I already tried plugging in the ethernet cable and the result is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some do have the same issue but nothing that didnt get fixed after a few updates, and some of the threads are years old so I cant say for sure. In the mean time the game is just collecting dust.

I have a fairly thick southern accent. It's that the audio is so low and soft, that it's almost like it's on mute to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
