for the lower levels I have noticed it was more active. Later on it starts getting quiet but, once you beat the game once and learn how to properly invade people. PVP will be within minutes of you activating soapsigns and whatnot.

Played it on the PS3, but I didn't enjoy it. Good price for those that it appeals to, though.

I've had it for awhile, I bought it pretty much solely on the premise that I like really hard games It was indeed hard and I did have fun playing through it still felt kind of bland to me didn't really like the combat itself

Already own it... Amazing game, I would say worth full price but I wont because the lazy developers decided to do little as possible to port it to PC. That said I agree, If you don't have this game buy it right now.

I tried so hard to get into it. Played it for about 6 hours. It just felt too slow to me. I prefer Ninja Gaiden/Darksider/DMC speed.

A little too slow for my tastes.  Did a playthrough on 360 a long while ago, didn't see a reason to make a new character or continue a New Game +, so definitely won't spend money on it again.  Was fun while it lasted though I guess.

The only thing I that's stopping me from buying it is the fact that I would have to shell out $$$ for an xbox 360 controller. That would make the grand total very unappealing. Damn.

I got it on PS3 and it's pretty great, but my need to do and see everything has made much of the game a grind and even a year and a half later I'm only 3/4 of the way through.

I'll beat it before the year's end though!

Dark Souls has great gameplay but the lack of a save option absolutely ruins it.

Demons Souls had the same problem but was a still better than Dark Souls.

you dont play any games that work better with a controller? Analog thumbstick controls and pressure sensitive triggers are far better than a keyboard for lots of games.

as far as I'm aware, the lack of quick save options is a large part of the appeal. Although if it really bugs you, you can use a trainer and cheat.

I was on my second playthrough about 3 months ago when I got to SMough and Ornstein. They owned my anus hard for about 3 hours after which I rage quit and uninstalled. Atleast I finished it once...

 

I'm psychologically preparing myself for the sequel.

If the game requires a trainer and cheats to be enjoyable, then it is a broken game.

Too bad, because Dark Souls had so much potential.

I dont have one. I play my "non keyboard friendly" games fine with a Logitech dual action game controller that cost me £2.50 about 10 years ago, why should I have to buy an XBOX controller?

Does that controller have trigger sensitive shoulder buttons like the 360 controller? It looks like a PS2 controller with simple click shoulder buttons.

I used to have one when I had an Xbox 360 but then I gave it away to my little cousins. Over time, $35 isn't a lot considering I spend more on games in general. It's weird because I would like play racing games that I have and "once in a while" titles like Dark Souls. Other than that, I haven't felt the need to have one at hand. Maybe I"m just cheap for no good reason. :P

Baurus_1

If you think this, you missed the entire core concept of the game. Play better.

Do you have the same complaints about Pac-man and Frogger?

Cant stand that game I dont see whats so good about it. The hideous voice acting, dieing and respawing all the time and having enemies respawn all the time wast my idea of fun at all.

pelvist

If you are better at the game, you don't have to worry about dying and respawning constantly. The enemies respawn because if they didn't there would be no learning from your mistakes, not to mention it would be nearly impossible to level and/or upgrade your gear because they use the same currency.

All the online aspects of the game are completely broken because of hackers.

So really this is worth it's reduced price at 7.50 but not more.

I bought it yesterday and started playing it today. Great game, hard though. Can I ask a noob question, how do you "invade other games or play pvp?"
