Don't bother with Demons Souls.....

Such a ridiculous game..... you can play for hours, but die, and those hours spent, mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! yeah thats right....even XP.... sure you can get your XP back if you get to your body.... oh wait, all the enemies have respawned.... but the items you used to survive until that point havent respawned into your backpack.

And if you die again trying to get back to your body.... then the XP is gone for good. This game is good for people who don't have much money, and want a game that will last a long time, due to it demanding you play for hours in order to get nowhere.

I originally gave this game a 9/10.... now I'm thinking 7/10.

If you do decide to play it.... don't be a "thief".... If it turns out that I'm having such a hard time due to choosing a difficult type of character to play as, then I'll gladly retract my previous statements.

Now I want to play it more.

maybe your just bad? We all knew demons souls was going to be punishing. Why even complain? Sure I played over and over and tried to defeat the tower knight and no avail. But the game isn't punishing because it's cheap, it's punishing because we suck.

Like the above poster said, now I want to play it more. I love ridiculous challenges like this.

Well, with everything I've heard for over a year was it was hard.

So I wouldn't pick a Thief my first run through on such a hard game, who knows.

you just need to spend your souls before you lose themJandurin

It's a challenging game which appeals to most gamers here but I doubt the majority who purchase it will even finish it.

That's what seems pretty cool. Like you said, it's not hard because it's cheap. Those games annoy me, but actual challenges make it so much more fun. When I play L4D I have to play it on Expert, otherwise it's just too damn easy.

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="Jandurin"] I don't care what you think. I'm just going off what I think I know. It's Amazon's fault :xJandurin

Then give me your game.

I want that game because I'm very poor.

Its the way you are playing, not the game that is the problem. If you want to easymode the game play a royal and just soul arrow spam your way through the thing.

[QUOTE="Jandurin"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] lulz, the thing is enemy's respawn, and when you go to your place of death you usually die, again and a lot.Animal-Mother

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="Jandurin"] I mean, backtrack and spend souls before you die. Easy as that.Jandurin

regardless i could warp to lets say baleteria palace kill some enemies, go back to the nexus. Go back ot the palace and all the enemies will be back. Animal-Mother

Having to go back and pick up your stuff is A-okay and reminds me a bit of PSO but if what you say is true and the enemies re-spawn then that not so okay. Hate respawnings - once killed they should stay killed.:?

depends on whether you want to make the game easy or hard. it doesnt matter what class you pick really. it only affects the begining mainly by giving you more of certain stats and giving you starting gear /spells to go along with it. Playing with a melee build is alot harder then a ranged build.

they only respawn when you die or exit the level.

maybe so.... but I beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on Warrior without any problems.... People talked about how hard that was.... I didn't think this game would be so unforgiving. I will probably jsut give up on it.... there are far too many great games coming out, plus others I already own that I've hardly touched... I gotta ask myself "whats the point of wasting all this time on 1 game and not getting anywhere, when I can have better experiences elsewhere?"

Sure the game isn't all bad.... but I've got Uncharted 2, Borderlands, Forza3 & Dragon Age (which will be 3x better than Demons Souls, I'm sure) coming soon.

Anyway... I'm not telling those of you who are playing and enjoy it, not to do so... great, good for you.... but this is more of a warning to others that havent thrown down the cash on it yet... steer clear for now, pick it up sometime when there is a gaming lull, and get it then at a much cheaper price... that way, if you don't like it, you haven't wasted $60 on it.... or rent it first.

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="Jandurin"] right. so a bit of grinding :) Get to a certain point, spend souls, get to a further point, spend souls, safer that way.Jandurin

That's impossible

women get an advantage? :oJandurin

[QUOTE="Jandurin"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] but the problem is you spend a ton of souls leveling ( you level by adding 1 stat point, after levling a stat point the amount of souls for the next one goes up regardless), so when you go and come back you'll have to go through all the enemies again and again and again, and as far as a class goes ,I choose knight, strong, but gets to keep the speed of a theif while wearing armor. http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/demon-s-souls That may help you as wellAnimal-Mother

That's impossible
