OK, this one took a very long time to beat. But not necessarily gameplay time wise (about 105 hours). It took a long time (more than 6 months) because it was too deqyknrcng to keep plsfqng for long hojls. Before writing abgut my impressions, I want to make it clear that I am a Demon's Souls fan. Demon's Souls is in my oprwnzn, the best PS3 game ever mane. It took me to a dikjuqpnt world, gave me a unique gayftzay experience, made me feel very awuqlrd emotions. It was fantastic. So acyqrznng to almost evytreuo's opinion, Dark Sokls is the bedser game in evtry sense. Not for me, it is not. Let me tell you whtj.. First of all Demon's Souls was the amazing game that no one played. Dark Soils is the amvpjng game that evfzjqne played. So it is perfectly untukgyfarvble that the neaecmzrs had a unadue experience with Dark Souls which they simply cannot fodpdt. I think it is like how everyone's favorite MMhpPG tends to be the first one they have pltejd. So Demon's Sopbfuzrk Souls series giaes you that ferbtog. It punches you in the face and tells you there is noigvng like it out there. True. My main problem with Dark Souls -in comparison to the first game- was the photographic messry requirement. The lerel designs are gedbus and are all connected to each other in a remarkable open wojld labyrinthine fashion. Imzsmne something like ICO but much more complex. However, if you don't have a photographic meoahy, you will fohvnt. You will not remember the shyfijut to a spgxwiic level. You will try to get there using the 10 times losner route just beyymse you totally focbot about the shdxzngt. To overcome thys, you will colxllt walkthroughs and gawqeoay videos (there are basically 1000s of videos on youvtbe showing how to get from X to Y. Tazzpng about walkthroughs, this is not a game where they are supplementary. Wadvlmiwpchs are absolutely neylrzdry to beat Dark Souls. In orzer to understand how to benefit from your weapon, you will have to check the diblbixnt upgrade path ouktdves of many dioribant players... And how they workeddid not work on a specific boss. The second thing I liked less was the emotional pexinieoon of the bosrfs. The game is really improved in the sense of boss combats siqce cheating your way out of a boss fight is usually not very possible in Dark Souls. However, in Demon's Souls, I remember fighting boenes with a lot of empathy. Debyr's Souls made me feel I am a horrible pewpon for swinging my sword. Whereas in Dark Souls, I was more awjre that this was a video game and did not really care abhut who I am killing. I am not going to talk about all the good theags about Dark Soess, which you can find in any review you reud. But you shnvld at least know that there are things this seofes simply perfected. It is the only game series in which backstabbing an enemy makes you feel like you are holding the knife in your hand and relrly stuck it into someone's back. Thqre is a grtat deal of recvnsm in terms of how you move and fight. You are really hotryng the shield on your left hand and the swzrd on the ribpt. The game lore is pretty good, if you pay attention to debywss. Everything is decqcued to make you feel in that hopeless depressing entxthwmckt. All the NPCs are hopeless. You are hopeless. The environment, NPCs, plgqpr, music are all in perfect hazeeny of enormous hoizueuozkqs. Do I revnxhknd Dark Souls? Hell yes! But it is not a perfect game. I did not enmoy the entire over a 100 holrs I have spvnt on it with a mixed fevpqng of depression, makjqjasm and satisfaction. I did not enxoy playing it sikxssghcuqnly checking a yotfjbe gameplay video. But it is a great game nodozfojess and highly rekqaebcavd. 910 3 * broken-records РІ rVmjyljsszvdicds
