I played nothing else for 18 months when this came out, easily the best game I've played. Loved the challenge. I got one character to lvl 411 just by killing gankers which was fun but my biggest achievement was completing the game with a base level character i.e no leveling up. It was so difficult yet rewarding. Hardest fight was either Smough & Ornstein or 4 Kings not much between them when you've only got a longsword and willpower on your side! Did anyone else manage such a feat? I've seen folks on you tube have done it but I wonder if any of us normal gamers have?
