Pre built garbage by HP worst purchase I have ever made. I can buy a car no problem but can get shafted over a something simple as a computer.

Going to be doing my virgin run of Dark Souls here soon. Working out kinks with my connection and twitch.tv so I can stream my suffering for others to revel in.
It's not as hard as some people make it out to be, it's just unforgiving. It's definitely a very fair game, when I died I can honestly say it was my own fuck up and not some broken game mechanic. It's a game that you have to take your time with and use some strategy. Most enemies can be killed without recieving any damage (even some of the bigger ones) if you catch their patterns and evade/block appropriately.
That said, it's still a fucking bitch of a game and most bosses WILL kill you at least once or twice before you can start taking them apart a piece at a time. That's what makes it so rewarding and I think that's why so many people really enjoy it. Also once you find a weapon that has a move set that you are really comfortable with (everyone likes a different weapon because they all have different Moves/Damage/speeds/ranges) and you have some skill you will be able to utterly crush most enemies without slowing down.
Just make sure to level up as soon as you have enough souls(exp points), if you have doubts about an upcoming area you should ALWAYS backtrack as far as you have to so you can spend your souls and level up, or you might lose them. Leveling up is a real pain later in the game so you should never waste a chance to level up.

Adam's rant against Skyrim actually got me thinking about it so much that I started a new character the other night.

The good news is my friend is going around sticking "We Know" post it notes on my computer, car, controllers. I think he's trying to return me from the dark side.
The bad news is I am having withdrawals from TES Skyrim.

Yeah, I'm absolutely loving it. I haven't been able to go balls to the wall with it like I wanted due to a busy holiday season and juggling other games, but the time I have put in has felt insanely rewarding. I just finished the gaping Dragon last night, first boss in the game I beat on the first attempt. She was ridiculously easy in comparison to the other encounters, just time consuming (though I could see how an overzealous player would get fucked over by her, I would also assume the rest of the game would had corrected their play style or caused them to quit by that point.)
I love it, it's the perfect kind of difficult. The game is constantly teaching you, and not with same lame ass tutorials, but with unforgiving game play. It lets you do what you want to, and it doesn't give a shit, or tell you if what you're doing is shooting yourself in the foot until it happens.
