Unlike your character in Demon’s Souls, the servers will survive! The surprise hit that spawned Dark Souls has been on life support for 2 years now, so it’s nice to see Atlus will be keeping it alive for as long as they can. So you can invade noobs to your heart’s content, I suppose.
On a side note, I played that game so much when it came out I made up my own theories about some of the characters, including how Stockpile Thomas was a very powerful demon… so I killed him in the game.
