hmm, for the start a "cylce through targets" option would be usefull.
You can, camera stick during lock on switches target.
Oh and Arn, you found the right game if you are looking for a good RPG. Dark souls combat is so interesting, finish the game with one weapon then do another playthrough with a different weapon and you will get a completely different experience. So many different animations depending on what kind of weapon you are using, sooo many combinations of armours, rings etc. PvE is real hard the first time around, gets easier everytime you finish it though since you learn how to beat every area in a easier way.
Then there's PvP which can get you sucked in easily aswell, it has moments where i just want to flip a table because of lag/cheap deaths, but then there is the the feeling of coming up with a new build, learning to master a new kind of weapon and good stuff like that. I've never actually invaded to be an asshole dark wraith but im sure it has a nice rewarding feeling when you kill a player struggling through the area's, lol.
Overall the game gets pretty much the same score as cRPG (IMO), something like a 9.5/10. Best games i've ever played, always keep coming back to them.
