That said, it fucking sucks as people saw the elegant design of Demon's Souls and Dark Souls with the cool ways they tied the in-game story and the game mechanics together, the extremely good world design and level design, the open-ended 'solve the problem however you can' RPG design, the innovative way to incorporate and rejuvenate once-boring multiplayer and story-telling techniques, and instead of being inspired to do anything cool with those or being inspired to change their thoughts on games they just went "I fucking love i-frame dodge rolls and big bosses and +12% stagger damage amulet equips".
