Dark Souls Dominates Young Player

Coming into Dark Souls I felt like I had a pretty good grasp of the game since I was a seasoned Demon Souls player, little did I know I was about to get OWNED! It took me roughly two minutes until I was killed. Pretty sad. The game plays and feels like Demon Souls but this time the enemies are a lot tougher and smarter. So to answer the question "how hard is Dark Souls?" Its F@#K&%$ hard! As you will see in the video below I did not do very well, but that does not mean I did not like the game; in fact I loved it! I cant wait to get me hands on the final copy.

I hope so. Ive platumed Demons soul's a long time ago, I'll play it again for a few hours before this game comes out to get some practice in and hopefully I don't suffer this guys fate ;)

NovusTerminus5449d ago

I NEED THIS GAME!

Bring it on is all I have to say! Looking forward to a game that gives the middle finger to making it accessible!

Philoctetes5449d ago

Looks pretty much exactly like Demon's Souls. Can't wait for this.

thecreeper5449d ago

That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Christopher5449d ago

Well, it's not that he knew how to actually roll in combat, which is necessary when attempting to melee a spearman, and then he decided to give them the advantage with the hallway as a bottleneck.

Would have loved to see him just go head-to-head against the dragon ;) Would have been a much shorter video, though.

I love demons souls and will buy this game day 1. I love the challenge because it makes you feel like you cant let your guard down. Also you can always make you character stronger since its a RPG, or you can go online and team up with others if your having a really hard time.

In the age of devs making their games easier to appeal to a new audience who wont play their games anyways(looking especially at you NINJA GAIDEN 3), its great to see some developers go out and make their next game even harder!! YAY

edit- yes. that is an awesome vidoe because it seems like it is exactly like demon's souls(even the "you died" part), and that what I was hoping for.

TheDivine5449d ago

Thats a really good point and developers need to follow suit. DS was tough but you could summon if you got stuck on a boss or grind a few levels, memorize patterns exc. Its a perfect balance of challenge and fairness plus you never get stuck because you have help to fall back on if needed. Im preordering the collectors edition of this bad boy. I still have one boss in DS i think il hop in and take that sucker down.

Just what i wanted to hear i had to play demons souls again because of all this hype lol. Can not wait!!

Tuxedoassassin5449d ago

I have this game already preordered, it looks so great, but I didn´t play Demons Souls, hope my gaming things are going to survive my rage. :D

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

badz14961d ago

cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla

The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result

isarai_lee73d ago

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way

lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6

Wait,

The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.

NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.

thorstein107d ago

No. There were elections and some of the scum were replaced.

TheColbertinator107d ago

Different elections. Different scum. Same results.

rlow1107d ago

i know its a long shot, but i hope this gets shot down.

EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
