Guys for realz adding a lower difficulty wouldn't even make sense. Like would they split the online then for co-op/invasions? Would you have less items being dropped and less souls being given from the easier difficulty? It seriously cannot be done without huge repercussions!

An easier mode could disable invasions.  Problem solved.

What? So we should cater to a few whiners that don't care for invasions?

I don't know how old you guys are in general, but if you recall awhile back in Ultima Online that game got ruined when they removed open world PvP, subscriptions went WAY down. Getting rid of griefing is not a good idea, especially in Dark Souls.

What? So I should cater to a bunch of twinks looking for easy points while trying to enjoy the game?
Or discard all the online functionality and only play offline? Sorry but I'll keep disconnecting when the invasion msg appears, I'm not playing the game for your enjoyment.
There is a reason mmorpgs have separate co-op and pvp servers, or voluntary based pvp.
