I'm loving this thread. A game is highly praised by the gaming community and critics alike and anyone who has difficulty playing it automatically dismisses it as being "unfair" and "cheap". Newsflash people: You're doing it wrong! ;)

Isn't unfair or cheap that they can kill you through walls?

I mean, if this was any other game, without all the "die a thousand times" and "hardest game on consoles" marketing, it would be recieved as a buggy crap of a game.

If it was a shooter in which enemies would not stop shooting, kept running and gunning towards you, and could kill you through walls with bullets, flame throwers, or any kind of bullets with just 2 or 3 shots, not to mention the dumb AI. A game like that would be a cancer in gaming.

So why is it that people ignore all the issues with Dark Souls?

I know how to play the game, I beat Demon's Souls 3 or 4 times, I am used to the combat and flow of the game. I just can't get used to be killed through solid objects

I just wanted to say that I started playing Dark Souls today and 4 hours after, I just couldn't continue. I died 15 times in a row trying to kill the gargoyles, they're weapons would make me take damage without hiting me, they're weapons would go through walls and hit me, the flames would go through walls and burn me.

This is not challenging nor fun. If a game that allows you to take damage through walls and has incompetent, completly dumb, blind AI gets all this praise then... Well, I dunno.

I'm actualy sort of enjoying, I guess it is my equivalent of having 2 tons of metal attached to my nipples and hot wax on my face.

I had a blast with Demon's Souls except for the 5th world due to camera issues, I just wish people would fairly evaluate the game, it's clearly not a 9, the story really isn't that interesting (so far). The only reason the game is "hard" it is because it is unfair more often then not, I literaly only started dying on the gargoyles.

P.S.: Is this my firs post?
