Yeah, I don't care about MY leveling so much (Im sure it will be similar to fallout's in some way) as much as I am about the enemies.
The level with your character thing is awful.
Seriously, Bethesda really needs to figure out how to get the leveling right.
Eff, why don't they kick it old school with some enemies are easy and some will destroy you in one hit? Your exploration because a little more risk/reward instead of t...
I agree with this arctile. I bought a ps3 late and played Fallout 3 before Oblivion...For the life of me I could not get into Oblivion because I liked Fallout 3 so much...
Here is my concern...and this is just in general.
FOR THE LOVE THAT IS EVERYTHING HOLY ON THIS PLANET...ENOUGH WITH THE SIDEQUESTS!!!!!
You may be thinking "Hey Tex, we like sidequests."
I answer you with this.
Sidequests for the...
Yeah, this just has too much Japanese anime in it for me.
Thanks Kos-Mos and DC1. Obviously both of you are big fans of the game for the same reasons I am (And Im willing to bet the farm we are not alone).
I have high HIGH hopes that FromSoftware will do their thing and take Namco along for ride.
Namco did publish it in Europe (after it was already completed), so maybe they get it to. They realized they had a dimond in the rough here.
Keep it atmospheric, brutally difficult but can be overcome...
Sure it is...But that doesn't mean its not a good game.
2011 has some great RPGs including Dragon Age 2 (and of course...Dark Souls among others)
Enjoy the game for what it is. A smooth TPS with an RPG story.
Obsidian can write good games...too bad they aren't the best programmers.
I honestly don't care about it going multiplat...developers have to make money to stay in business (RIP Cavia).
But for goodness sakes...Namco hasnt quite figured it out this generation and if they fiddle with it too much Dark Souls will (pardon the pun) lose the soul that made Demon's Souls so great.
Ive been playing it for about 20 hours now. Its a fine game...Probably not worth 60 bucks but I needed something to fill the RPG void before Dragon Age 2.
If you see it for around 30 bucks, then pick it up.
Oh and P.S., I swear to goodness if you put in actual online chat IN the game itself I'm goinig to be very dissapointed in you. The last thing I want to hear in this brutally beautiful world is some 13 year old on a headset saying that Im not charging in fast enough calling me a poosay while he gets slaughtered by that giant rat thing or whatever baddie you have in store. Kthnkbai.
Dear FromSoftware,
First let me start off that I'm going to give you guys my money on day one, but may I ask of you one request? But first, let me say a few things.
Let's start with I know you have a new publisher for this game. Im sure you as well as I love Atlus...They are a quirky company that publishes niche titles that are almost always great. I know they weren't involved in the development of your game at all. You were assisted by JapanSony an...
This is already a day one purchase for me but I do have a concern.
This was the NamcoBandi producer...He uses the term "We" alot...I hope that these guys were not really involved with the development of the game, but are just publishing the title.
FromSoftware through prior interviews, has stated that they had alot of leeway when designing Demon's Souls. They were free to craft the game in their own vision. JapanSony let them do it... (a...
" hate them for weak plots, recycled environments, predictable settings, broken gameplay and bad aesthetics" <From the article>
I do hate them for this.
I've been gaming for over 20 years and have yet to purchase a FPS.
Im hopeful for this year though...2011...look at the list of great games coming up....There are alot of choices out there for those who can't stand the FPS.
You said it all.
Demon's Souls just required you to take it slow and be patient....That's all. Yes some bosses were "Hard" I'm looking at you Flamelurker, ManEater, but the game merely required a slow pace. Nothing is cheap....nothing...when you scream you will scream at yourself...The game is VERY fair which is the brillance of the design.
I, for one, hope that the "Hard" part the developer is talking about is less about the design of the enemies, but m...
In a year with some GREAT games coming out, this annoucement put this game as my #1 most wanted. (And look at the line up this year...espcially for those who are tired of the FPS)
Just a thought, and maybe some others can chime in. I personally am thankful this is not a named sequal to Demon's Souls (and yes, I realize there are some IP issues with Sony).
Not being a named sequal but obvioulsy a true up spiritual successor allows the team to be more...
Wonder why they are taking this position
This game is well worth....about 30-40 bucks.
I've been playing for about 20 hours, and Im enjoying the game quite a bit.
If you are looking for an RPG to pick up while you are waiting for Dragon Ag (and you haven't played Neir yet), then pick this up.
Cutting down hoards of enimies really isin't my thing. (Tried the Demo and just didn't like it)
However, if you are a Dynasty Warriors fan, this game is for you.
I liked the art style.
Hmmm, well, if they quit tryin to go for the WOW factor cut scene and focus on the "heart" of a game, then yeah...they will be fine.
Compare FFXIII to FFVI, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana.
Take out the bugs that plague the Gamebro engine (get a new one)...and I'll bite.
Obsidian can write some pretty good games.
