Though hearing it isn't region locked is great news. Next is cross platforming! By the way, any news on the convenant system? |

This game delivered on the marketing slogan. I'm only 6 hours into the game and can't remember how many times I've died. It wasn't just carelessness The enemy AI this time around is both inspiring and terrifying.
Inspiring: knocking an enemy off from higher ground and instead of getting stuck he runs to a ladder, scales it, and gets back to me. Terrifying: when an enemy gets in a quick hit and proceeds to roll around behind me for the followup. Oh, with the right shield they will parry. As for region restriction, word is the Japanese gamers have created a low level thief build for the Forest Hunter covenant. This is so they can rape any westerners from progressing through the dark forest. |

I don't think you need to play Demon's Soul. Just get this game if you want.
And it's a kind of hard that's different than Ninja Gaiden. It's less frustrating (actually, it's not), and most of the time, you can always say it's your own fault that lead to your death instead of the game.

>Do I need to play Demons before getting this? Nope. If you find yourself liking DaS then give it a try, too. >Is this harder than Ninja Gaiden II for X360? Like Duo mentioned it's a different kinda hard. I usually find myself dying out of carelessness or impatience, but it really depends on your play style. >Is this game moved by trial n error like Demon's? I wouldn't say "trial and error", but it is a learning experience. You don't necessarily have to die to learn - you could be at the jaws of death, succeed, and find yourself evaluating why you got in the situation. |

Hey, Ryu Hayabusa has no stamina bar to speak of... can you imagine him in the world of Dark Souls or Demon's Souls. He would literally OWN, not only by the fact that he never get's tired or out of breath, but also because he's so much faster. By the time your Dark or Demon's souls character has slashed a boss monster 2 times, Ryu would would have already completed 9-hit slash combo with his Katana. |

I have the feeling that in the way that even the trailer says that you "will die over and over". I'm getting that feeling that there will be parts in the game where you'll just have to die and you can do nothing about it... Either way, not much discussion going on, are people frustrated that they are dying over and over or is it not that interesting as it seemed? Or maybe people haven't gotten it yet

You will die over and over but it's always because you haven't encountered the enemy before and don't know how to beat it, or because you were reckless. Even the bosses have ways to beat them that make them seem like cakewalk (I kept getting owned by taurus demon until I figured out the right strategy and I then basically steamrolled him).
You need patience, the ability to figure things out and adapt, and a tactical approach to the battles. If you have those, you can more than handle what the game throws at you.

Dark Souls
edit: I fail at not searching for the topic first before making a new thread
anyway game is hard for me so far. I only just beat the giant minatour demon by plunge attacking him three times in a row as apposed to doing it the right way and dodging his attacks at ground level or something.
