Totally agree.

My ideal AI in a game would be completely nonpartisan and equivalent to the human players in every way. That is, the player is not seen as "special" in their eyes any more than his teammates and they only shoot at him because of his uniform, and if the player is hindered by controls that only allow him to turn so fast, the computer players should be, too.

COD on Veteran. They don't make the AI smarter, they just make them cheap to give the illusion that they got 'harder'. They see you from places where you can't see them, even if you are planning an ambush on enemies coming your way, they will immediately do 360 headshots on you once you fire at them. All that BS

Since I'm using FPS's, I'd say KZ2 on elite is the best AI I've seen in that genre. No cheap BS. The4y catch you trying to be rambo, and you get mowed down.

in reply to the title. erm... twss? i so mature.

Yeah dark souls just needs patience...

While I agree, Dark Souls is actually pretty easy game once you play it for a while, and know what to expect, dying isn't 100% your fault every single time.

The lock on has killed me a couple times (it did in Demon's Souls also) and one time I was fighting a Taurus Demon (No, not the first 'boss') and it was near a cliff. I was up against the wall, and when I killed him in a mere two hits, the way the body disintegrated into the ground, it sort of pushed my character into the air and wouldn't let me move and by the time it would, my character was on the very, very edge of the cliff looking the wrong direction. Needless to say, I died. Hasn't happened since though.

I've already beat it with three different characters (I enjoy coming up with the perfect PvP build, I don't so much care for the NG+ as it doesn't really add THAT much in Dark Souls. As far as I know nothing new opens up, and only some new armor is available to buy. And the enemies get harder. I basically go into a new game + since the invade rate goes up dramatically.

But This game is amazing. And once they patch it so the Fog Ring becomes useless for PvP, it'll be far better. I've been in a situation where two darkmoon covenant members invades me, and then a few seconds later a black phantom (Dark Spirit, whatever) also invades me and put us in a 2v1v1 situation. I managed to conquer though!

Games these days (like the "Souls Games") are hard, but there is nothing this generation that was the nightmare of old school Nintendo games.

I dare anyone to try beating Contra without using the Konami code. Or Smash TV without unlimited continues. They can be done, but you have to be REALLY good and that still doesn't mean that you will.

that is what fable anniversary is.
