If you say so

I'm probably going to start gow and try demon souls.

Just know this isn't a game to try casually. To give it a fair chance you have to really invest in it for a while.

yeah after spending 400+ hours on Dark Souls and 300+ hours on Dark Souls 2 I should go back and play Demon Souls, but I just don't know if I could do it. From everything I've read what made demon souls so "good" was the messed up hit boxes and unfair environments... just seems like a step back from the games I love so much.



Demon's Souls >> Dark Souls. Dark Souls doesn't have the heart and soul that demon's souls did.

Oh, I knew what I was getting into. My personal preference is just more color. Something can be dark, foreboding, etc. but still have more colors than gray and brown. I'm not saying its a flaw of the game, it's just different than what I like.

Besides, I'm only 2 hours in. I haven't decided what I think of it overall yet and I'm sure the game will show me even more shades of brown before I'm done.

Thinking through it. 1-3, 2-2, and 4-2 should provide some color and variety for you. Worlds 3 and 5 are darker than anything else though.

Pick something with high vitality and high strength. Your instinct will be to smash attacks, so dealing high damage will be a nice crutch while you're learning the game.

I know Sony published it in Japan and Atlas did in the US. I don't know the full story but i believe those issues are why we never saw Demon's souls 2.


eta: I'm sure Oauron knows


Indeed I do. Demon's Souls was a cult hit in Japan, and its popularity was very much after it got released. Sony mistakenly passed on localizing it (which they later stated was a huge mistake + they played an old build that had a lot of problems). The developer hadn't really made any big games before, so they had no reason to think it would do very well. Atlus localized it, and Namco Bandai reached out to From Software for more Souls games after seeing its success in Japan + West.

So, Sony has been forced to wait until Namco's contract was up before getting the collaboration back together again.

I wonder if Bloodborne is going to do well in Japan and push some consoles.

Sold through 70% of its shipment on the first day. Will likely sell out over the weekend. It should do well.

Hopefully it's the game consoles in Japan need. It would be nice for them to get interested again.

I was wondering if it would get any bites

I've watched so many people play demon's souls, that I really don't know if I would enjoy it, but at the end of the day I'm sure I would lap it up just like the other two.

If you enjoy Dark, you will very much enjoy Demon's Souls. The biggest problem with Dark Souls is that it feels like the game really ends after O&S, and the whole second half is nothing but a fetch quest that doesn't have the same connectivity as the first half.
