That's the argument I always present to people that hate Anita. Forget the "message" and just ask yourself, "What does she actually want?" When you answer that question honestly the answer is not that world-shaking, no matter who you are.

There are a few distinct worlds inside the Souls games.

I don't play games to fritter away my time.
