[QUOTE="Kandlegoat"]Demon's Souls was awesome...but when it comes down to it.the game is just another dark fantasy dungeon crawler...not to mention Kings Field was way superior.
Mass Effect 2,despite people's opinions on it being a true RPG or not. provided a better overall unique experience.

I guess you could dumb it down to that, but I thought it was the incredible depth, combat, enemy design, atmosphere, and then of course the extremely unique online features with co-op, PvP, leaving hints, and the bloodstains, as well as the fact that the game constantly autosaved so it provided a very immersive sense of everything you do being absolutely permanent, whether it be wasting a valuable item, dying, losing 400k souls, or being Soulsucked in PvP, as opposed to standard games in which you make a mistake, you can just reset the system and start over with all resources back. I dunno, it all struck me as cool, and I see it as why it's a step up from a similar game like King's Field (which probably aspired to be like Demon's Souls but simply couldn't due to technology limitations. The only flaw I ever found in Demon's Souls was an occasional drastic framerate drop, but it only occurred during huge explosions of fire and when the Blue Dragon moved. Outside that I found it to be a rather perfect game. Sorry I'm rambling, it's just I would love to go start my New Game + and just forget about my essay I'm writing right now :P.wow...I was personally expecting some fanboy wall of text that consisted of "U Neva played it"...but instead,you actually made a well thought,unbiased,retort.
I enjoyed Demons Souls.and I acknowledge the things you mentioned..But like I said...its just another Dark Fantasy RPG.
Mass Effect 1@2 made me feel like I was roleplaying 70's-80's Sci Fi like Dune,Blade Runner,Terminator,Enemy Mine,Brazil,Logan's Run,Buck Rogers,Battlestar Galactica.
