Is one the most hardest best games I have played in years. I feel that it will take me three months or more to beat this game.

I got bored of it quick.. There wasn't really much of a story.. And it just seemed like one big instanced hub you can grind the same lvls over and over on.
Currently Playing:
Rift + Starcraft II + Gears Of War 3 Beta
Best game ever made. Really for hardcore gamers
Dissapointed. I thought it was going to be..more. It's a hub based game that is annoyingly tough. That's all it is. I was expecting more of a story..or..RPG of some kind.
Fact is you can't name a game with better sword+shield combat and PvP in a game. Yeah DS easily challenges and beats the best of MMO PvP here too. For the first time in a long time, I actually ****ing felt afraid of the mythical creature called the "Dragon", the way he is presented in this game. I remember playing this game for the first time, first level 1-1, dying a lot by the regular zombie skeleton mobs, and then see a dragon and almost near shit my pants, I felt like an actual knight and loved the feeling. This was the feeling I used to get from single player games LONG ago.
As for the story, there is a deep lore in Demon's Souls, it just isn't spoonfed the traditonal way, but through the environment interaction and atmosphere itself, literally. Infact its by far the best story game I've played, next to the Metal Gear Solid series.
*spoilers*
Its not through cutscenes but through pure atmospheric interaction you learn that the boss you fought the "Old Monk" is the banished husband of Latria. This is just one of the many things, go read these :

As you'll figure out once you go read through those topics, experiencing the story in DS is truly unique and personal.
dang...DS is one hard game to beat, even on the opening levels
my friend broke his controller in sheer frustration
oh well I might skip th sequel too XD
This is freaking hard and awesome game. It is like im playing a monster hunter type of a game. The good thing about this game it starts with hard. I have choosed magician because it can kill monster and boss in an easy way. I like the way it cast magic then you roll backward or side ward, sometimes i use magical type of long spear with a shield on the other hand, it really gives an advantage. Knowing the monster weakness and use different kind of weapon is an advantage. Good thing there is a soul harvesting area so I get easy stat build... Hope this game would have an expansion pack...
It was really hard at first and its getting harder every time you finished the game and repeat it. But it is a good game and im still playing it. I wish they have more of this kind of games to be released, I am really fond of playing this game.
I was playing this game for 3days and I come to just get the hang of it. I reached Lvl56 in the game as I went to the other map with lots of cage cell like alcatraz, as I went further in the game a player had walkin the game and it is color red. At first I thought that he was there to help me but as the moment that he went close to me he attacked me instantly and I died all of my soul dropped. I went back to the place that I died it wasn't there anymore. I thought the game can only help players and not pk somebody, I was farming that soul and less in a minute its all gone. Thats why I never played the game online always do it offline.
I got this game a long time ago and still going back to play this game. It's very challenging when you finished the game and played it again. The games starts with a difficulty of a hard core gamer. I like the hack and slash of the game.
I liked this game a lot.
It's sloppiness in some areas should not be confused for difficulty though. Players shouldn't have to look up basic game mechanics to understand how to play.
i agree, i'm having a hard time beating this game as well. guides you can find in the internet help a little.
