@silversix_: Agreed, they should have gone down the Dark Souls path and had just one difficulty. Hard.
Regarding your negatives.'Later levels lack challenge', so take the difficulty of easy and stop save scumming every 10 seconds. Fixed. Story is absolutely fine, particularly if you've played the first one which I would recommend from a narrative stand point.'Hidden runes drive you nuts' Git gud. Fixed.
@Silver17: They ARE doing well. Both have had their share of outselling each other, both are selling very well no matter who sells more for the month.
@livedreamplay: You're right. The last time I wanted to hear the latest ABBA album someone lent me their cassette. My apologies.
