Let me shorten it and tell you that I pity you for you will never get the great feelings out of the game as the legits do. If this is the response one gets for saying they play invasions like the game mechanic inherently suggests, something is wrong here... Calling Wolf of Velka an illegitimate player for not adhering to some made up "etiquette" is simply not true. As far as I understand you and him both play without cheats, so you're both "legits".

I think the problem here is some people trying to argue that their way of enjoying the game is more valuable than another's. I agree that honorable duels are more enjoyable most of the time, and I know how to signify I want a fair fight: I throw down a Red Sign or a Dragon Eye.

If you can say, with a straight face, that you believe Fromsoft came up with the idea of invasions with the intention of the players having to "observe the niceties" before engaging in battle, I don't know what I can say to change your mind that hasn't been said already.

I'm one of those "honor souls" players too, so I identify with what you are saying, to an extent. I simply find fair duels enjoyable. But I also realize it's arrogant of me to try to force the same code on other players who might look at the game in a different way. I value their opinion just as much as my own.

Thank you for reading and have a great weekend, all of you fine people.
