Yeah, no, he's right. Pointing and clicking on someone's head is a lot faster and more accurate than using analogue sticks. It's why auto aim assists are so common in console versions of FPS games, and not their PC counterparts.

This is kind of the point of dark souls anyway. All the people you meet have just given up and decide to sit around a bonfire until they go mad. Your character is supposed to do the same thing, but you, the player, are the voice inside his/her head saying, "Just one more level", and "c'mon, we can take that asshole".…
