Seyroon at Fextralife writes, "Demon’s Souls more-or-less obviously draws upon history, mythology, and psychology for inspiration. Now it’s time to look behind the scenes once more, where the Monomyth, or Hero’s Journey, waits patiently to be observed. Below. the story/events of the game are mapped onto the classic archetypal tale, step-by-step, as per this basic overview. As a personal interpretation, this is just one of many possible projections of the game onto the Monomyth, which is itself only a rough outline of events that may or may not combine to produce it, and which is best served loosely – told metaphorically at times, and perhaps out of order, or incompletely – as strict adherence comes across as unoriginal and boring."
Soulslikes are punishingly difficult but amongst the most compelling games. Power Up Gaming goes through the top ten Soulslikes you're likely not playing.
Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?
Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.
All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.
The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.
Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.
Comparison videos of Demon's Souls & Black Myth: Wukong running on both PS5 and PS5 Pro showcase an impressive upgrade on the mid-gen console.
Well yeah it tells you the difference— 1440p vs 4k for 60fps. You have to watch the video in 4k to see the difference.
Wukong actually performs worst in performance mode, wtf!
And wheres the damn update for this game. They're still more work to be done.
I saw Zero noticeable difference when I played it on Pro. The only game I’ve seen significant difference in is FF7RB but now I get these stutters after the Pro update. I can safely say that if you don’t have a PS5 then getting the Pro is a no brainer but upgrading from PS5 to Pro is not a wise move as of now. Wait for better new games.
So you’re telling me that I DONT have a PS5 Pro and you’re telling me that I DONT have Demon’s Souls and you’re telling me that I DID in fact see a different in a game that according to you I don’t have? Im assuming you’re one of the lucky few who owns a Pro saw a major Difference in Demon’s Souls right?
Tough as nails, solid as a brick, and as annoying as a rooster at dawn—this list has it all. Here are the hardest PS3 games.
This list has nine games....
And if these are the "hardest", that's a bit alarming because I'm pretty average and I've managed to 100% more than a third of this list (Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Hard Corps Uprising, and Catherine).
