No apologies, No Mercy. You must be a hardcore gamer if you are going to rent Dark Souls. This game walks the very fine line of love and hate. It will test you to the last nerve, and rock you to your core.
I have rarely played a game where the next item, or spell you find felt so earned! Everything you accomplish will make you feel as if you actually did something! Very few games out there give you these feelings. You have no clue. Where you are, what you are doing, how you got there. All you have is the clothes on your back and the scraps you find along the way. Hardcore RPG at its best! Nothing is wasted, everything is gained with blood and tears.
YOU MUST be patient! Learn the ropes, feel out your chosen character and listen to others! Read those messages, leave some of your own! The Camera and Lock on system will be your second biggest enemy, thin patience your first.
This community right here is one of the best in the world of gaming. We are all in this together! If you feel like quitting and snuffing this game out all together DON'T! Get on the Forums, study up! If you know anything about Demons Souls, than you know there will be a huge amount of support online very soon. Forge ahead! Be smart about your next move and Run if you have too! Treat your characters life as if it was your own.
Dark souls will not be for the faint of heart or short tempered. I love this game, I love Demons Souls. These are the kind of games we will look back on, like Mario or Zelda, and say "Man, that was great." for some. Others will be just as happy leaving it alone.
I will leave you with this, Demons/Dark Souls to me defines what it is to be a proud first generation gamer. Whether you were ASCII or Atari/NES, you know what I am talking about. The Souls Series is an Ode to our childhood. Thank you From Software
