    Glad to hear they’re doing the smart thing and listening to what people want. Invasions sound cool on paper, but they end up just being annoying, and you design how you play around avoiding them. It’s cool to summon people from their summon signs, but it would just inherently work better if you could choose people from a damn menu, including your friends.

      Yeah I just want that and shared progression. I don’t like having to help a friend through a section and then we need to go and do it again for me, or vice versa. If we kill a boss, we both should kill the boss. If we pick up tap macguffin, we both got the macguffin. Many games figured this out years ago, I’d appreciate it if From could move on from their current system. It was cool and all when I was like 15 years younger, I got more shit to do now than having to play the same game multiple times I order to keep me and my friends at the same level of progression.
