THE HOLY TRINITY OF PAIN
Ever thought of how cool a cRPG would be that was as difficult as a Dark Souls game?

Well it's here, waiting for you...

I'm yet to play the game but I can imagine that "EXPERT" mode will take away much of the number crunching and you'll just have to play with "feel" and trial and error which is what real life is like so surely that will add to the RGP experience.

I'm also going to play "TRIAL OR IRON" as, like in real life again, consequences to decisions are irrervsible.

And i'm also going to play "PATH OF THE DAMNED" as I want this world to be as unforgiving and brutal as a Dark Souls game.

My thoughts are that when I get some story progression I will appreciate it even more and when I defeat a group of enemies my feelings of elation will be even higher.

If anyone has read The Road, that is the level of violence I want, where death waits around every corner and fights are brutal beyond belief.

I expect to be restarting a lot, and by a lot I mean several dozen times, and may have a nervous breakdown or two but isn't that going to be worth it when in mid-game I kill my entire party accidentaly with friendly fire after launching a fireball spell in a cramped corridor while surrounded on both sides by hoardes of spiders and goblins?

TLDR: Anyone with me for this holy trinity of damnation? :)
