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

Some people just love tough games. And its another category in the gaming universe. They could have made it alot easier for people like you who like short cuts but instead they made an effort designing the combat system in such a way. And so far we are getting a positive response from the majority. Ofcourse some people will always stand out.

Buh Buuh it's hard. Well, suck it up.

you only have to grind if you want to grind. you can actually beat the game at the level you started with.

Wasting hours of your game time by not accomplishing anything? sounds more like an impatient gamer to me. I've played for maybe 6-7 hours and I have one boss remaining, however, I'm working on all my tendencies and upgrading my weapons as well.

also, the game isn't that hard, only at first because it's has such a unique combat system, that it doesn't really play like any other game.

[QUOTE="Doolz2024"][QUOTE="jerkface96"] i thought the first level was easy! and i killed Phalanx pretty easily, and then i needed co op to kill the second boss, brutal haha Couth_

I feel like my copy of the game may be defected or something. In 1-1, running across the bridge to open the phalanx door the dragon never showed up and definitely never tried to kill me. Also, in the little section next to there where there are dragons guarding the purple shield, they were missing too. Weird huh.

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

was sold out at my local gamestop....pretty surprising.

[QUOTE="jakarai"][QUOTE="h575309"] Apparently killing that king affects your character/world tendency quite a bit. Apparently hes got a sweet sword though...h575309

This king were talking about is in 1-1. Old King Doran and drops a Demonbrandt, but I think hes hard. Not sure yet, I have to beat the first demon Phalanx first. Work is seriously hindering my playtime of this game.

Wooo I finally beat the first boss. Man he is easy with magic, I wonder how I would do with no magic but anyways anyone know how to get the treasures guarded by the red dragon? Everytime I get close I die

jerkface96

on pure white tendency both the blue and red dragon will not appear on its nest, theres another trick go to the bridge and when you see him leaves his nest go run on the area with the treasures.. be careful not to get too closed on the blue dragon that thing will stomp you.. :P

[QUOTE="jerkface96"][QUOTE="Doolz2024"]

This game is not frustrating at all. Hard, yeah, but when you die it's not frustrating. I finally completed Boletarian Palace last night, and it was such a satisfying feeling to defeat Phalanx and return to my body form.

Demon's Souls is an amazing game. If you "don't bother with" it, then you're really going to miss out on a very incredible experience.

Knight boss?

The tower knight? Or the Penetrator?

[QUOTE="jakarai"][QUOTE="Doolz2024"]Yeah, it was easy after dying about 50 times for me, too. :P-Oath

Knight boss?

The tower knight? Or the Penetrator?

The Tower Knight in Boletarian Palace.(1-2) Guys is pretty easy to beat for me as a Knight with the right amount of health, help and Turpentine. I'll be able to solo him shortly.

I was in a party with this Royal last knight who was just destroying him with the arrows.

[QUOTE="-Oath"]

[QUOTE="jakarai"] I finally beat the knight boss last knight. I had two phantoms help me at first. Got his health to half way and the other two phantoms with me died. LOL I had enough health and felt I was strong enough to solo him with my turpentine to finish him off and I did. Got 8k souls in the process to. It felt good. Now I am running like marathons on him to level up because how easy he is. LOLjakarai

I chose knight and I found soloing him to be pretty manageable.

Didnt die and delt hard damage with turpentine.

Weapon upgrades help alot too.

when your a caster beating tower knight is easy as 1 2 3. :P

If you are in human form and summon phantoms can you remove them from your game?jakarai

Yes by using the white stone.

Played about an hour as a hunter and it's awesome so far. I'm steadly progressing through the first level very, very slowly. :P I've already had death handed to me by a phantom with a halberd, but I'll get him back.

Red eyes? i hate that guy. I always go there when i need some souls now, he's not too hard anymore. the old king is a different story. He scares me.

I just threw a death cloud on him and watched him slowly die.:PI really wanted his armour. I'm going to try using melee attacks more at some point since I got the North Regalia sword (apparently very powerful) recently in my third playthrough. I just need to build up some strength and dexterity.

Yeah the game doesn't make you die. You die all on your own. It wasn't the games fault you suck, it was your fault. The game doesn't do anything "cheap" because it's mainly how you play the game, and if you play it right, then you won't die.

The thing is, it's never very far to get to where you open up the next shortcut, which becomes permanent progress you've made. When you fail, what you achieve is learning from your mistakes, so when you do get it right, it's really satisfying and you feel like you earned it. It's not so much about skill but just figuring out what to do, but there's many ways to go about things. A couple of bosses can be tough, especially the flame lurker, but most are pretty easy once you work out a good tactic.

WHAT!!!

i want to have this game but its too much

i already have bought 8 games sisnce i got the PS3 last september

i wanna sell some of my games and GET DEMONS SOUL

Just reading you guys talk strats makes me wish I had the game so bad =( Sounds so awesome.

does anyone remember how many times they died during the firdt 20 hours of oblivion because your character is weak sauce?, it's the same with risen on the 360 as well, demon souls is the way an rpg should be, it makes you work hard in the beginning because your character is a novice adventurer, as you build up XP the game gets easier becausy you become better skilled, i like the sound of this 'challenge' looks like i have 2 reasons to look foreward to getting my ps3.delta3074
