I'm very much looking forward to this. Picked up the first one a couple months after launch and had a great time with it, even if the story was weak and the world kind of boring.

If this can manage to improve on those two areas then I'll love this probably.

@-Jak- Thanks man. Feels good to be on a real forum. I think this may have been my last avatar but it's hard to remember. Oh well.

Had 2 accounts. Klingonsown which I first created in 2008 and then Albinoloach which I created sometime after the 2012 redesign because I lost everything.

Commented a lot when I first joined but slowly started becoming less involved. I lurked around until the very end though I think the last time I ever commented on anything was probably a few months before it shut down.

I'd be incredibly surprised if anyone remembered me.

Also a Junior in college actually, kind of in a similar situation too. I decided to give the Souls games a try as I bought Dark Souls 1 & 2 several months ago on sale but never played them. I beat Demon's Souls over the summer and kept telling myself that eventually I'd get around to it, but kept finding excuses not to.

You're right I think, in the sense that a tight budget can be a blessing in disguise, though I'm guessing I'd be singing a different tune if I lived in a less developed country.

Finished Dark Souls a few days ago for the first time. I'm on NG+ now and just got past Ornstein and Smough. Kind of surprised it took me this long to really give the series a try but I'm loving it so far.
