I stood in line for about an hour waiting patiently for my copy, like a pilgrim in line to see a relic. I had pre-ordered Dark Souls 2 Black Armor Edition way back in September, and it was finally release day. The first guy to get his big box o’ goodness had no troubles, but I flinched when ALL the clerks had to head to the back to find my copy. After a minute that seemed like an eternity, they all irreverently resumed their positions after finding my copy of the game. I left the store like all the other gamers that night, with a huge box in a bag that somewhere inside held a world contained on a 180mm by 1.2mm disc. It was a world I was anxious to explore. I got home and opened my prize. There she was, right on top after opening the flap. I ripped off the cellophane and popped the disc into my PS3. The title screen, the same as the first game, allayed my fears of drastic change. In the end, this was false hope.
