How can I reccomend this game using one of a billion things that haven't already been said about it?

Let me say this: DONT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE A WUSS.

I'm not calling you out. I'm not saying that you'll be a man for buying this game. This game is f***ing frustrating as hell. As you play, your character doesn't get better, YOU get better. The game trains you to take it in the face, over and over and over and over... and then ask for more. The best analogy I can give for this game is if you spent the hottest day in the summer hot tar roofing. You sweat your ass off and felt like you were in hell for 12 hours, just so that at the end of the day, when you cracked open an ice cold beer, it would taste so much better.

Dark souls is an unforgivingly brutal game where difficult doesn't even begin to describe the play style. No hint guides, no easy mode, no tutorial. You are dropped into a game with a broken sword and some clothing and then told "go." No other help is given except from your fellow players, half of the time said advice is trolling.

Yet through it all, after 45+ deaths in less than an hour, you are still respawning and trying again, knowing that if you can just get past that next enemy, just get to the next checkpoint, just get the timing on that one fight down... you'll have a new way to die.

...and you'll hate every frustrating ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ minute of it, yet you keep playing. Because you must.
