I'd be happy to take a PC code off your hand, if you don't want it yourself! Thanks

Pikachu in pokémon yellow! WHAT A LEGENDARY! Wait, it doesn't count that it's on the box art? Shit...

Diablo 3 should answer this fairly good. Playing with permadeath there was insanely fun, but the sudden DCs, spikes and otherwise connection problem made it too much of an hassle. Not a single person in their right mind would stay calm if their high leveled character, whom they invested a lot of time in, would die to lag or other connection issues.

Other than that, I think it's a good idea to maybe have the option or something, but the game would have to be built around it. I'm a big fan of permadeath myself, but in an MMO? Can't really see it, no.

@golguin: Oh? Like what attacks? I can get by that some attacks would be really HARD, but impossible? Remember, my argument is not that it's the best thing and that i-frames are useless - rather I'm just trying to argue that less/no i-frames still makes the old builds viable (Although, a little different for most users).

How is actually dodging an attack without i-frames unviable anyways? People are aware of that you can actually dodge away from attacks, right? You can dodge in any direction, not just directly into an attack with the blessing of i-frames. As a vivid i-frame user in Dark Souls, I realize it will be harder, but not viable? I dunno, just shooting some tips out to you guys that did not realize you can dodge attacks without using i-frames...

I've never had any problems. What I do is run for the knight on the right (HA!) and just parry his attack and stab him right in the damn stomach (riposte).

This. I'm actually quite surprised I had to scroll for so 'long' before it got mentioned. Now, truth be told I am one of those who didn't care TOO much for this game, but still. I know a lot of people has gone out and said the combat/gameplay was fairly bad and the only thing that made them finish it was the sick story.

As stated above - get DSfix. DSfix is mandatory, every other mod is optional (No, I'm not over exaggerating at all!) (AT ALL!!!!)

"Sadly, anyone who wants to play the game without stuping to this level will only result in feeling disappointed (...)"

I have to strongly disagree on this one. Me and my friends are playing this game without any hacks or other exploits, and we are enjoying the hell out of it! I guess some servers are better than other, we have been exposed to cheaters and exploiters on different servers, but we are in no way "feeling disappointed". Just want to get that in here that some people will enjoy the game even in its current state. (Also, it's still in alpha, so many problems will get sorted out later on in development).
