Subject: RE: Dark Souls can burn in HELL.

It's very e-peen in the gaming community to rave about Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, specifically how one loves the "difficulty" (seems they're afraid to use the words "cheap," "sadistic," etc.). I've seen some videos and must admit that I admire the intricate and unusual design, along with the online undead/human ideas. I have no interest in actually playing it, though.

I only hope "difficulty" doesn't become a design norm in other games. So many people yelled about how they wanted co-op -- now every game has co-op as its mp component, or the whole thing is designed around a team- or party-based co-op principle. People should be careful what they say they want on game forums.
