Oddly enough, neither game allows you to talk directly to the people you play with.... I wonder if that is a coincidence.. <.<
Dark Souls is one of those games where the developers stood against the publisher and developed one of the purest most fufilling games I've ever played, you can tell they poured their (broken) hearts into the game & then some, going above and beyond, lol. & I love the anonymity of the mutiplayer, it's like Journey, lol.

I've never actually played Monster Hunter... but I want to. Tell me more about its gear system? :O
I wish there was one for PS3
