As I'm seeing so many people post thread about finishing the game, my competitive nature begins to become frustrated that I'm just now in Anor Londo even after getting the game on release date. However, I'm only 30 hours in due to my job/kids/wife and other life responsibilities in general. However, I have flipped my perception.....
I am genuinely appreciating the fact that I'm only 50% or so done with the game because once its over, NG+ will inevitably happen (just like Demon's Souls), but it isn't AS great as the first discovery/play- through. Games like this don't come along often. I am so utterly captivated by the gameplay, visuals, infinite customizability, online co-op options and pvp, that I want to savor this experience. Fortunately, life is forcing me to do so - because if I didn't have a mortgage, two young kids and a sometimes annoying (but very hot) wife - I would be playing this game full-time.
So - just wanted to send out some Friday gratitude for the sheer, brilliant enjoyment playing Dark Souls brings. (Not to mention I get off work at 4pm today and will get some play time in before wife and kids get home from work/daycare. :)
