Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls were both outstanding games, in my opinion. To this day they remain two of the very few games that I will actually go back and replay. Do they have minor flaws? Yes, but I cannot think of a single game that has ever been “perfect.”

Tom’s article reminded me of an interview that was published on this site shortly after Dark Souls was released. http://www.gamespot.com/news/dark-souls-sequel-in-question-6349575

In the interview the creative director was asked if they would make another sequel, he responds by saying he was not sure if they would have another chance since the community had lost faith due to their mistakes. To me, that was mind-blowing. They created a game that has received such high praise by so many of its players, but yet they are still humbled from their mistakes. For me that shows the mark of a true developer, one of the rare sites we see in the gaming industry of today.
