Demon's Souls Dengeki Buyer's Guide Review

Translation:

A bold game pursuing for the fundamental of joy in videogames.

This is an action RPG developed by SCE and From Software. Player must hunt down demons in order to save the kingdom. Information such as where you are supposed to go or how to defeat demons is intentionally provided in limited amount, so the player has to discover by try-and-error. This, instead of being nuisance, is the appeal of the game.
Also, for online co-op, there are interesting features such as leaving a dying message to leave a clue for other players.

Pros: Due to its high difficulty, there will be many unreasonable deaths, but because of that there is a big catharsis in finding out how to over come the obstacle. Control is very responsive and simple, so fighting against enemy is a breeze. Character making and leveling up give you a lot of freedom, so creating a character of your own is quite enjoyable.

Cons: You can't pause during game. Because of its serious and tense atmosphere and game structure, it's really not for casual gamers.

Here is the image.

I believe this game is mostly for hardcore From fans since the age of King's Field, and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

3sq5980d ago

It's the release date Feb 5th

meepmoopmeep5980d ago

oh, thanks for the clarification.

hehe

SaiyanFury5979d ago

King's Field kicked copious amounts of ass back in it's day. I sincerely hope SCE releases this game in North America. If not, I'll be importing the English asian version. I cannot wait for this. The KF series was very much hardcore and there's no reason for this one to be any different.

INehalemEXI5980d ago (Edited 5980d ago )

Wow theres no pause.... I want this one almost as much as I want WKC.

pippoppow5979d ago

WKC and DS are 2 of my most wanted games. Glad this game will be difficult as too many games are on the easy side. Don't mind a challenge and look forward to this game.

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.

GeeEssEff123d ago

The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.

Cacabunga123d ago

Reminds me of Doom like back in the days for every FPS game

blackblades123d ago (Edited 123d ago )

Yeah, souls, souls lite, souls like same goes for rogue.

anast122d ago

It's either AI or the writer doesn't know the subject matter.

robtion123d ago

I've played all of these bar the Crab one so not a very accurate title.

Goodguy01123d ago (Edited 123d ago )

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.

robtion123d ago

Yes Nioh 2 in particular is great. Also Wo Long (which is basically Nioh 3).

qalpha123d ago

Should have included 'Lies of P'. Seriously fun game.

Nacho_Z123d ago

That's what I was going to say, great game. Best non From Soulslike I've played.

I see absolutely no difference with base performance mode..

MrWood217d ago

Well yeah it tells you the difference— 1440p vs 4k for 60fps. You have to watch the video in 4k to see the difference.

dantesparda218d ago (Edited 218d ago )

Wukong actually performs worst in performance mode, wtf!

And wheres the damn update for this game. They're still more work to be done.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH218d ago

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.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH217d ago

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?

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).
