Hopefully Dark Souls stays true to it's roots...
Congratz Xbox players.
Day one buy for me I really loved demon souls very hard but very very rewarding amazing graphics amazing gameplay
This game will be contender for RPG of the Year 2011. There will be massive competition from Sykrim and ME3 though.
i did not think demonssouls was hard after you got past the phalanx in boletaria and picked up the cling ring. i doubt dark souls will be hard if you use a bit of logic and common sense.
Extremely annoyed to see that they insist on making co-op bothersome for the user.
They KNOW the user is gonna play co-op with his friends, and yet they are determined not to enable voice chat or easier co-op play with friends.
They make the features, but make sure it's gonna be as bothersome as possible for the user.
In Demons Souls, people had to put up signs and HOPE their friends could see it, and HOPE they got to it before random people got to it.
Further more, you HAD to use a computer with something like skype, to talk to your friends.
And what do they do when asked about these features?
They completely ignore the fanbase.
The dev says it's a dark game world. A world without friends or help. But guess what, it's a GAME. IRL we DO have friends, and we ARE gonna be playing with them. Only thing they are doing, is making it harder to play together.
This is SO typical for japanese developers - thinking their ways are flawless, and that any legitimate criticism from the user is utter bs.
