I'm just sitting here wondering how this guy made executive editor. IGN today is in shambles.

Not sure why everybody is hating on him...the article presented a fairly clear and well thought out criticism of the game from the perspective of someone who is fairly new to the souls franchise. I think this perspective is perfectly valid.
The opinions of hardcore fans aren't going to be as applicable to those who have barely played the games before, and of course, the opinion of new players aren't going to be of much use to Souls veterans. As he said, this article was not written for you.

Again..there is more to the article..he has been raging on twitter acting like a 2 year old for days, he is unprofessional.
You guys, this is not the review, this is just the opinion of one of the editors.
If this was the reviewer talking, the game would have gotten a bad score.

I think we all know this lol.
A lot of IGN workers suck at certain games. They even got caught playing games on easy in their reviews.

Agreed.
Demon Souls was a PS3 exclusive and Dark Souls 1/2 sold like crap on X360. If the ownership rate is really 50% from last gen like people here say, than there is most likely a lot of new players trying a Souls game for the first time.
It will be interesting to see how that turns out.
In my experience, I had more problem with the common enemies than the first boss. I beat the first boss on my second try but did die a few times from common enemies especially when I was attacked in horde, I was also using at first the wrong approach due to old habit from the souls games.
