From Software thwarts early Dark Souls players

According to Japanese blog Esuteru, From Software is taking on those who have somehow acquired an early copy of the upcoming Dark Souls in typically cruel fashion.

It appears the developer is making use of a feature which enables players to invade each other's worlds, by sending max-level Black Phantoms into the games of those who are already playing the game thanks to retailers breaking Dark Souls' official Japanese release date of tomorrow.

The below screenshot shows the terrifying stats of one hunter: level 145, 1900HP, and all abilities at the maximum 99. For the sake of comparison, our Dark Souls reviewer is currently level 43, with 1001 HP and abilities ranging from 8 up to 30 - after almost 60 hours.
