I have mixed feelings on Dark Souls' multiplayer. On one hand it's a lot of fun, except for the annoying griefers that are present in any online game (looking at Forest Covenant fights), but I wish it was allowed for more specificity. Like, if I could just invite a friend through the menu rather than having to plan where you'd meet up and then summon them.

It's kind of obscene how fast I'm levelling skills. My only problem is I'm not getting perks fast enough to keep up.

I disagree.
If the game is well made, and there is a highly active modding community, then these types of games can have nearly infinite replay value. For instance, I still play Morrowind over 10 years after it was released. Granted, it's a heavily modded Morrowind, but you can do the same thing with Skyrim, and probably even cooler things since the engine is so much more powerful that Morrowind's.
I don't know though, since I only got to play it for about a week, you could very well be right about Skyrim. I do know that when you take an RPG game and strip it of most of the RPG mechanics, then it's not as good of an RPG as it could have been. I find it funny that one of the earlier mods made was one to add back in primary attributes (strength, willpower, etc.).
Oof, I forgot about the modding community. Yeah, for PC games, that community definitely increases replay value. I've had the lesser experience of playing Skyrim on PS3 instead, so that's where my criticism is rooted.
I just really want a good RPG with a reasonable co-op feature--similar to Baldur's Gate, where you can have a friend simply join your party and smash some innocent civilians. YES!!!

Illusion is the easiest to level up (especially if you are a High Elf). Go to your house, park your butt by your bed, and cast Muffle as much as you can (as a High Elf, use your magic regeneration power, you will be able to cast more spells this way). Once you have burned up all your magic, go to bed and wake up. Rinse and repeat...you will level up quick.
I find it interesting that you chose Speech to focus on. How is that working out for you?

At one time it was made out to be the greatest RPG of all time...now, rarely a murmur--not even a whisper in the wind.
I lost interest in it when I took it out and didn't put it back in the case. I left it on the floor like a moron. Then...my dad stepped on it.
My dad stepped on my SKYRIM!
I never entered that world again after that.

Yeah, exactly. And have the game prohibit red raiders (or whatever they're called) from joining in.

I don't know how much y'all played the multiplayer but I spent last summer getting indictments and I was in the top 1000 or so on ps3 it was intense. Lots of cigs weed and Mountain Dew and nothing is more annoying than some asshole health glitching. I hate griefers. Also bbs since I'm th red phantom you hate so much don't turn alive and I won't come kill your ass.

Me and my axe will sort your ass out--as soon as I get a PS3 controller charger, and then find my Dark Souls game--UGH! UGH! UGH!
My main point is that I'm differentiating between Diablo 2 multiplayer co-op, and Dark Souls 'multiplayer'. I favor the former for my ideal game.

Good luck with that axe. I used to low level pvp with a chaos uchigatana, giants gear, roley ring before it was nerfed and the gold ring and rape noobs like you. Those were the days!

What? Of course I've only hijacked this stupid skyrim thread to talk about it! I'll go as far as to say it is my favorite game on this generation of consoles it was that good. I'm listening to the soundtrack now

It's great in some areas, and decent in others (e.g. the story, and way too decentralized merchants--i.e. no 'Warp' feature to towns where all the merchants are chillin' in one spot.
