A friend and I are actually planning on meeting up this weekend to start a Drunk Souls character together, and one of our rules is human as often as possible. Glad to see we get the full effect when we start! Read more

Agreed. I spend at least a few extra hours in each area co-oping to help other players. Sometimes longer. Read more
