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.

The ultimate game would be Skyrim's map and characters combined with Dark Souls' melee fighting style. Dark Souls' "spirit/co-op system" should be modified with a more co-op/two-player option. In other words, your friend wouldn't join you as some spirit, but rather as someone directly joining the Closed Game or Open Game--like on Diablo 2.

Funny, I'm usually the one coat tailing every skyrim post saying how much better dark souls is. And I think the phantoms give dark souls an element of online play that no one else has I love it!

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.).

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.

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!!!
