Dark Souls II is considered by many fans to be worse than either Dark Souls I or Dark Souls III. The lore/themes of DS2 imply that its setting/world is a degenerate, broken down reinterpretation of the setting/world of DS1. The story and characters of DS2 try to warn the player against repeating the mistakes of the past, but the game is both thematically and literally a bad version of Dark Souls I.
Dark Souls II Syndrome is this phenomenon: a work is bad, but the creator(s) try to justify its badness by explaining through story/characters/themes why it is bad; in explaining why it's intentionally bad, someone might think the work is actually good because it was meant to be bad, but the work is actually just bad and not clever.

I couldn't stand Mike from RedLetterMedia doing his review of The Matrix 4. He thought it was bad on purpose and that made it clever, but that movie just has Dark Souls II Syndrome.

Use to identify another person who has either lighter or darker skin tone. With the commonly inaccurate categories of white. black, Hispanic, etc. This allows the speaker to accurately address somebody else without using general slang terms or formal speech.
Depending on the pigment of the speaker light or dark is directly related to the subject. Two different people may call another exact subject the opposite when giving a description.

Hey there "light skin or dark skin." How are them Redskins looking for that game against the Cowboys?
Excuse me "dark skin or dark skin" I am short on my bus fare by a dime; any chance you could help me out?
That light skin broad I saw was a real class act.
I was feeling how that dark skin cat was laying some knowledge to them hoppers cutting up in the park. That was some old school looking.

Ok so yeah he does seem to think that only the 3% of people have these personality traits... SO, I made a list!
Hym "Here is a list of Jordan Peterson's Dark Tetrad Traits (with evidence!). Trait 1. Machiavellianism (Manipulation): Jordan likes to speak at a certain level of abstraction to obfuscate his beliefs (Regarding whether or not he believes in God or free will) and manipulate how he is conceptualized. Trait 2. Psychopathy (Parasitism): Has a parasitic relationship with his clients. Regularly using them for his own profit. Also parasitizes ME. Trait 3. Sadism Admits to having sadistic fantasies. Trait 4. Narcissism: Thinks he's "more competent" than everyone and thinks that anyone who even calls his integrity into question is jealous of him. Thinks he's above the rules and refuses to follow them. So... There you have it. Jordan Peterson's Dark Tetrad Traits. He's either part of the 3% or he's wrong."

On a tough day, during a difficult period of time, when low and tired even a small gesture, nice smile, sincere look in the eyes, warm words or a big hug could make a big difference for someone's day.
Mr. Busy was returning home after a long day and as always during the last couple months, when alone, he was thinking about Mrs. Over-Elaborate. He missed her presence and their talks and other things he tried to avoid thinking about...
He suddenly got the urge to text her. They planned to have a lunch in two days, but he could not resist the temptation. The combination of what she wrote back and how they immediately connected made him feel special. He was still tired and needed to finish some work, but her kind words worked like a ray of sunshine piercing through the darkness and distinct change in the mood of Mr. Busy was perceptible... and without asking her, he was almost sure she knew how she made him feel and was happy he wrote her...
