First feeling when playing Dark Souls?

I was 9 years old so I felt terrified of the game because my uncle told me that it was insanely hard, and the most difficult game I played up until then was 150cc mode on Mario Kart. I slowly edged my way around the corners of every level being cautions of an ambush and when I got into a fight, I was put at a severe disadvantage because my hands didn’t fit onto the controller properly.

Im 16 now, and I brought the remastered version just last weekend, and I’m certainly doing better than last time.

(Just to clarify, I got the game at 9 years old because my uncle told me about it and I thought it sounded cool. He showed a trailer too, and explained what it’s about, and then brought it for me at Christmas 2011. I have no idea how he managed to convince my hippie mum and overly-religious dad to let me play it, but he did)
