It's really over...

Seems right, Dark Souls was a hell of a lot more fun to play where Skyrim was very lacking to the point only role players who have to get into a certain mindset enjoy the game more.

According to what? One of the ten-thousands sites or shows that's going to rate Skyrim?

Sorry, but I've put 150 hours into Skyrim, and I've only talked to the Greybeards on one character, and haven't gotten any farther. Dark Souls is a linear RPG, with repetitive combat and a large amount of grind, and didn't last me as long as Skyrim.

Winner? Skyrim, hands down.

Just goes to show you, absolutely no hard-core game writers even know what an RPG is. Dark Souls is not one. In fact, it's not even an "Action w/ RPG elements". RPG = role-playing game, not amything set in a pseudo-medieval-like world. That's pretty much all Dark Souls is. AND it has some REALLY terrible design flaws. It's about as RPG as Rage. Nope, sorry, actioner, through and through, with some of the more annoying "platformer" concepts thrown in (like hard set save spots hours apart). Just about the only RPG "concept" is one of character improvement along choice paths. Other than not, nope, sorry, SO far from an RPG.

haha, you got me. Though I was a bit offended by the Xbox really devoted fan. Don't like people making fun of my system of choice, I grew up with the Playstation brand. Though I do prefer PC, if only I had the money...
