I personally enjoyed the backtracking. Felt much more immersive than opening a menu and bouncing from location to location. Never thought the map was badly designed.
Maybe a mount would help with travel.

I don't even care if it's more of the same, because that is all I really want. Better is just sugar on top.

I think it's a given there will be some new equipment,hopefully it will look better than those we'll get for completing Time attack and hard mode.
New skills and classes would be awesome!
And i hope this black Spell Island will be huge and have some variety in environments than the rest of the game.Can't wait to explore it!
Well I think it was mostly the corridor between gran soren and the cassardis that I find terrible, and it's not so much the back tracking but the fact they are the same enemies that you outlevel at some point. Having shortcuts and a more open map with more random enemy placements would probably help. I run through the same areas a lot in dark souls too but I still found it enjoyable since they were still a bit challenging and quick to get around places.
Don't really need a mount imo, they would likely halfass it and it would probably add nothing, would prefer to fight my way through as long as it's fun.
I really hope there are some changes to the environments with black spell island, from the screenshots it seems likely to be similar to the vanilla map.
Also good to see the npcs are back.

Did the 2 demos en PS3 represent the quality of the game or did they choose areas that don't show framerate problems?
'Cause I think I'll get it when Dark Arisen comes out on PS3, and I did not have complaints with the demos.

I love this game so much that I plat'd it, but I found it to be very easy. I can't wait for this!

I don't think it's port begging. Capcom has hinted several times that they may bring it to PC.
It's like Capcom's old D & D game, imo. It also gives me that sense of adventure Zelda used to have before they held your hand for everything, or how you'd feel in RPGs when you wandered in to the wrong area and got your ass handed to you. The sense of atmosphere is amazing.

My fiancee just beat the speedrun mode at 51 minutes. She's going to try the hard mode now. We're wondering, too, what the conditions are for the seemingly two new hairstyles (#49 and 50) that are blanked out in the character editor.
well not really detailed but when starting the game on hard mode there is a message that tells you that:
foes will deal more damage
you have less stamina
but you will get more gold

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
lol @ more gold seeing how thats one thing you are not in short supply of with the game once you get that ball rolling in your adventure. Its too bad it didnt do something like what Borderlands had which was change up the character models slightly for the harder mode. Now that would have been cool and rewarded players with something extra to see when playing hard mode again.
