I have never gotten into a souls like game before and always saw them as pointless cause i had a bad view of "its just a game that is going to make you mad, why do that" when this came out I kept finding myself watch Dr. Lupo playing the game and the more he played, the more I wanted to play it, even though I had no interest in the type of game. Then I finally said, "oh well, lets buy it". I am so happy I did. This game was phenomenal and I really hope it gets Game of the Year. I spent 150 hours playing one playthrough of this game. At this point I am just waiting for DLC so I can sink back into.
