Yup, as much as I love Dark Souls, you spend most of the time dying and running from griefers in MP*.

Did she wear pants? I hear all serial killers wear pants. So if she wore pants then that must be the motivating factor

She did all that in the name of Dark Souls, and she probably didn't even stop to praise the sun.

Fucking Darkwraiths, man. Not a shred of decency.

Here we go again. Last time it was

"Boy took his father's gun to school".

Then in news report, father comments saying,

"My son took the gun to school because of influence from Minecraft".

So it wasn't because you were a f**king bad parent for not putting away the gun in a safe place away from children and actually being dumb enough to blame a game that has NO GUNS at all in it?

OR

"The Washington shootings happened because the suspect was playing GTA V the weekend before."

Er... The game weren't even out yet and is this a way of you trying to blame video games again angry conservative man? You know the Bible has more violence, sex and obscene act in it than most of the things you see today.

At this point, I think Peter Johnson Jr. should just give up on life. Retire, go home, separate himself from society. Because he used the phrase "video-type things" on national TV in what is supposed to be a serious news article. And no matter what else he does in his life, no matter what he accomplishes, he will always be remembered as the "video-type things" guy. It would be sad if it wasn't so stupid.

Other than that, boilerplate "VIDJA GAYMES MAK UR CHELDRIN MURDUUUR" stuff. Not much to say about it, beyond the usual contempt and disgust they they're trying to pin people's deaths on a piece of entertainment that isn't them.

I saw the headline and thought "This is great! Now a bunch more people will know about Dark Souls and sales will skyrocket, giving us more games like it!"

Satanism AND video games? It must be fucking Christmas. I assume the terrorists built the time machine to send her the video game in the past. And it was all constructed by zombie Hitler, who with his painting abilities went on to create video games, such as Dark Souls, all to make sure that these killings happened. I mean, that seems to be the only logical conclusion to how these events transpired.

Besides the math being a little funky, I have to say out of all the games I've played ... this is the one to make a person kill another!

I got to those Gargoyle things and I wanted to kill somebody! One isn't hard enough, with it's tail bending all over the place ... another one swoops down saying "Gee, George, watching you kill that tortured soul sure does look like a whole heap a fun ... mind if I join in?". Dicks!

At least it's better than trotting out the usual suspect, I swear gta has done so many laps around fox news it more than doubles the distance I've drove in the actual games!

world affinity was something in demons souls, you fucked up again, fox
oh and if video games are so powerful, why are they using metallica instead of CoD in Guantanamo? if fox is to be believed at about MW3 the detainees should piss red white and blue

Disgusting.
Stop giving that person fame by giving them a title and showing their face all over the media and don't insult us users of "video-type things" by associating us with them.
You're only inspiring new killers.
You're the lowest of scum if you sink to that level just for some press.

"We do know that she has an affinity for the fantasy game called Dark Souls, which is a very dark, death-laden video game that's on PlayStation and other kinds of video-type things where there's a lot of killing involved."
They appear to have descended to some never-before-reached level below "not trying any more".

I wanted to go on a killing spree as well when I played Dark Souls, that game is pretty frustrating.

It's the same old story really, person plays "video type things" in their spare time, they kill someone and it's video type things that are to blame.

This is why I don't watch news, ever. Because they blow everything out of proportion, they point fingers, and they only ever barely scratch the surface on any particular story because the drooling idiots that watch their crap can only stay focused on one thing for so long. Not to mention the fact that the anchors are usually stuck up their own arses with their political correctness.

And as people have mentioned there are so many holes in their flimsy argument it's not even worth paying any attention to.

Clearly this idiot's affinity is level 10. With only one slot for spells he probably slots Magical Thinking, casts that shit, then pulls aggro from every raging ogre within a 100 yard radius.

So if she had an affinity for say, spaghetti, would that mean spaghetti would be the reason she was a murderer?

The only possible way that this guy could make himself sound legitimate is if he came in and said she was directly driven to murder by Orenstien and Smough.

That would be pretty reasonable.

As it is, the bit about the Playstation game thing-a-mah-jig just makes it sound wonderfully like an old man shaking his walking stick.
