I stopped watching about half-way through because I felt it was getting a bit spoilerish.

Looks like more of the same though which is a good thing. I was afraid they would dumb it down after hearing that it was supposed to be more mainstream than the original, but it doesn't seem that way from what I've seen.

I still need to finish DS1, but this is a definite purchase for me.

I'm not quite convinced yet. The improvements are ok, but I would certainly prefer more unique looking environments with compelling exploration and less generic dungeon crawling aspects for this particular game.

The torch aspect isn't really anything new as a gameplay feature - anyone who has explored the Tomb of Giants knows this. ;) Still, more usage of darkness as a way of creating "slowness" and player caution is a good thing.

The different ways to die in the video were also amusing and so I'm looking forward to hearing more yet before I decide.
