Looks like an incredible title. I won't be able to play it because it's clearly DS-esqe and I just get murdered on games with that difficulty level. Right up my alley on story, genre and graphics, but I'm just not cut out for all the frustrating punishment.


You can play the game. You can beat the game. All you need to really beat souls is time and patience. The real reward is not beating the game. It’s what you learn about yourself in the process.

Once you learn the DS strategy, it becomes a ton of fun. Other games just pale in comparison. Also, if you want just to cheat, there is an easy way to level up to god status.

I use that now just for the hell of it.

This (although the last sentence is a little dramatic lol)

Just finished my first ever souls game by beating Demons Souls. Remember taking forever just to make it to the first boss. Then remember it taking forever to figure out a way to beat the second boss. Then FINALLY made it to False King Allant and after a couple of attempts realized that there was simply no way I would be able to beat him.

Figured out that I was simply underpowered with my weapons and cheated a little to determine that something like the Dozer Axe was what I needed and I figured out a way to collect the shite necessary to do all the upgrades.

From what I've been able to gather, it seems like once you figure out the core concepts of one of the games you'll likely be able to play all of them pretty well.

time and patience


With 2 kids (one of them < 1yo) I have very little of one of these and none of the other on any given day.

The good news is that I will have a very healthy backlog of AAA games in 20 years.
