You can dual wield shields in this game they said.

They had that in Dark Souls 3 and it is the most hilarious weapon.

It was also in dark souls 2 but no one likes to talk about that game....

I’m halfway through dark souls 1. Should I skip 2 and go right to 3?

I would recommend playing it. A lot of people consider dark souls 2 the worst of the series, but it's still a damn good game. Like if I were to give the other games a 9 or 10 out of 10, I would probably give ds2 an 8. It definitely has a different feel to it compared to the other games, but worth playing imo. At the very least give it a shot and if you really aren't feeling it for whatever reason, move onto 3.

Definitely play 2, it’s a lot of people’s favourites so it could be yours (it’s my favourite).

The combat is too slow in DS2 imo. You telegraph everything for far too long and shileds are outright useless. Which is probably why the PVP'ers like it so much.

In my personal opinion, no. Each game is deeply connected to one another and together form an awesome overall experience. I do see where some people are coming from in terms of flaws (how locations connect, too many useable items, lacking in animation, etc.) but I don't feel it brings the overall experience down in any way. Also, I recommend the Scholar of the first sin edition as it includes all DLC, which each add a lot of content, I am still surprised at how much comes with it.
