I think it speaks volumes about the current state of videogaming when Dark Souls is the benchmark for difficulty. Dark Souls relies on a combination of decent enemy AI, stats, and traps to be hard. Want a game where your skill is the only barrier? Play Ninja Gaiden Black.
Just watched the video review...how the hell is someone that terrible at games allowed to critique them professionally? There were several parts where the controls were blamed for deaths, when Mark had well over a second to react. That's huge in games, where some games require frame counting and split second reactions. Sorry, Mark, but you're pretty damn casual.
