I'd love it if, when I was in Dark Souls 1, I could be invaded by max levels on my SL1 character. The Souls games have always been about Challenge, and getting yourself to Max SL and Being able to use everything is not Challenging. I think that Soul memory is Stupid, Mainly because Once you reach 12M SM, you're gonna Invade/Get Invaded by Max or High Level Havel Smelters. I'd rather get Killed by a few Twinks than Hundreds of SL 500-838s The Souls games are about being challenging, yes. But there has always been the ability to connect to people of much higher levels than you, and not continuing to level up was your own self-imposed disability. If you're going to be stubborn enough to stop leveling up, and then complain that you've had unfair match-ups, who is to blame but yourself? Furthermore, it's very possible to take on max levels and win, even at lower levels. It is dependent on the skill of the player.
