@Darkmoone1 Maybe they walked up to the bonfire backwards? That would explain a LOT.

@spartanx169x @r3pzero @Gomtor The first rule of any RPG is also the third rule of all other games right behind "Don't die" and "Shoot the bad guys".

@leikeylosh Farming souls indefinitely is not a cheat, it's a feature. It's the main reason these games are difficult only as an illusion for those that haven't figured it out. That IS the "easy mode" you are asking for. Farm souls and it gets a lot easier, if only incrementally so instead of an instant "this shit be easy now cause you changed a setting".

@Gomtor @DLOArceus @leikeylosh The rest of the points made are good, but all you came back with was ad hominem attack? I think you might be the one who never won a debate at college... as if that even matters.

@Gamer3344 I do like my JRPG's once in awhile (playing through Bravely Default right now) but I definitely love the fact that Souls series keeps all the story elements to a minimum. You are rarely kicked-out of the gameplay view and that does a lot to make it feel like you are truly exploring on your own instead of having it shoveled onto your lap.

@dani3po I'm sure if Dark Souls 2 had no such bug, haters would still make up strawman arguments in an effort to stroke their own battered egos.

@daikkenaurora12 Uh.. you mean like a whole release for the 360? That kind of new?

Wow.. Diablo 3 finally came out! That paid beta test was pretty fucking lame.

@hudson633 @Gelugon_baat Coming up aces on a hedged bet is not "nailing" anything.

The tin-foil hat comment most definitely nailed you.

@Super-Poke-Bros Yeah, I bought it awhile ago myself, with one of the nice sales they did. This seems to be the theme with the PS+ games pretty regularly, I either already have the game on 360, or already bought it at a discount.

Still though, the few games I've got for free through PS+, that I didn't already have, have been pretty great. Hotline Miami was fantastic.
