I've pre-ordered the collectors edition with the statue, and I've been going through and replaying Dark Souls religiously the past few days. I'm so excited for Dark Souls II. I really hope they fix backstabbing and not make it so easy to do. PVP is hellacious due to that. But, what system will yall be playing on?

Apparently they've done exactly that, it's not so much a "backstab" but a series of high damage animation moves that apparently can be interrupted by enemies and is slightly harder to find the sweet spot to engage it.
