@@nejihiashi He never said "in every way". This is a graphics comparison video, so clearly he was talking about graphics. In which case he's correct, because graphically it is a far more advanced game than Elden Ring.
Agreed, but I could say the same about Elden Ring. Not in terms of technology, maybe, but the way some enemies can be recognized by almost iconic sounds (like those singing "harpies" for instance, or those trumpet playing enemies in Leyndell) is peak sound design.
demons souls sounds amazing. that 3d audio is really something… hearing the first dragon fly over you on the bridge for the first time… that was a nice feeling lol. elden ring doesn’t have any kind of 3d audio on the next gen consoles, but it still sounds good with the right headphones/soundbar/speakers.
@@diegoramos27 wtf? 😂😂 hell no. Elden ring didn’t get nominated for best soundtrack for nothing and it should have beat GOW rag in that aspect. There are so many good soundtracks in that game. They are both from soft games anways
Blue Point did an incredible job. What I like the most is that they brought new life to the npcs by giving them expressions and actual lipsync for once. Something From Soft can greatly benefit from. It is sublte but it adds alot.
Elden looks beautiful. Playing it right now. But damn Now I feel spoiled by having played DS remake Last year. DS remake on PS5 is on another level graphically. It blew my mind when I played it during the PS5 launch.
@@ilusiil that’s not what it is. Demon souls remake is a ps5 exclusive game that could push the limits. Elden is a game that from software had to make playable on last gen as well as next gen. If they made the game as “beautiful” as demon souls remake then there wouldn’t be a ps4/Xbox 1 port
This is a fun comparison to do and everything, but I think to be fair we have to keep in mind that Elden Ring is a game that started development on last-gen hardware, and is cross platform. It needed to be able to be playable on a base model original PS4 and Xbone. The Demon's Souls remake is game designed specifically to show off the PS5.
@@Austin-xi6ku Well in this case a next gen update that would even remotely compare to dedicated remastered would be impossible. I could imagine them at most increasing the frames, adding some fancy lighting techniques, and dlss, but they will not have sweeping changes to animations, face designs, etc.
@@Austin-xi6ku There IS a next-gen version. It just doesn't look drastically different from the previous gen version (it adds a little more environmental detail and such, but that's about it). Also FromSoft isn't really known for flashy graphics. It is what it is, Elden Ring looks more than good enough.
from software confirmed that they are adding raytracing in a future update for the next gen consoles. that’ll be interesting. but honestly, this game looks really good in my opinion, especially the character animations.
Like how as different as they are they both look incredibly well and just work to the point of if you switched them graphically it’d be more of a detriment.
Definitely. Finshed DS Remake a month ago and this looks like a hypothetical next gen patch to Dark Souls 3. DeS is literally a generation ahead in terms of graphics.
Even if Elden Ring would have been made without last-gen consoles in mind, I'm not sure that would have made it better. Part of why they can have such a massive world and so many bosses is because it's faster to make lower quality assets.
Also the studio isn't as experienced in the graphics and networking department. BluePoint who is now a Sony 1st party made Demon Souls which is why their game looks so good. The have the resources to put into the title.
@@shira2151 And they didn't had to spend time designing the maps, story, characters or mechanics. They had the base and could focus all their efforts in improving graphics and overall experience from what they already had.
@@thyron that’s not even why fromsoft has lack luster graphics it’s simply because there art direction carries there games & the graphics are just fine for what we’ve come to expect. Fromsoft also has little dialogue work to do, little explaining, little hand holding with the player, it’s not just the graphical side of things at all they skip so much more
This isn't necessarily true at all actually. with super realistic graphics you can actually take advantage of serious time-saving things like photogrammetry assets from quixel megascans, most of the time-consuming stuff comes from optimization, in a sense, elden ring is held back because it has to run on last-gen consoles, they couldn't get away with as much as demon souls remake could.
Demons soul has clearly a better graphics. But given that Elden ring is an open world game which needs to load much wider scope of space, I think both are equally great work.
Horizon is also open world and there's a really big difference in the graphics between it and ER, still a great game, guess FS don't really care about the visual quality, but the art is amazing.
@@abreguini u do realise that Horizon is less than a fourth the size of Elden ring when it comes to content right? What they did, on old and new gen consoles and pc is beyond outstanding
@@adonicetrig8908 well, I'm playing and loving both, but I had found a lot more to do in horizon, there's NPCs every where, there are machine sites every here and there, Elden ring have an NPC almost never, and the enemies are pretty dispersed when not in dungeons.
@@abreguini u joking right? There’s a new dungeon or mine or castle or fort or camp with secret areas and rooms every 3 minutes in Elden Ring. The map alone is three times that of Horizon. I said content, and content is not just NPCs lmao, side quests, bosses, enemy variety, weapons, move sets, magic, gear, endings, NG+, multiplayer, and so on. It’s like comparing oranges to apples, one game is short but sweet while the other will be played for years until all secrets are discovered by the community. Elden Ring must be ur first FromSoft game based on ur criteria of content lmao.
Demon's Soul has a considerable smaller scope even compared to the first Dark Souls. Elden ring in on another league entirely. Even Bluepoint woudn't be able to produce that amount of assets with the same quality as the Demon's Souls remake.
Realistically I didn't expect Elden Ring to look nearly as good, given it's open world nature and dynamic lighting. As compared to bluepoints expertise in graphical fidelity and advantage of using fixed lighting and linear,smaller levels. Elden ring does hold up on its once in places like it's legacy dungeons and with certain lighting though.
I don’t know why I keep seeing people say this, considering how Horizon Forbidden West is open world yet the environment even on PS4 has higher fidelity than Elden Ring.
@@WolverineBatman totally different studios. One of which is Playstation exclusive, optimizing specifically for that platform. And mainly, fromsoft has never focused and pushing the envelope with graphics.
Implying blueprints engine couldn't translate to the open world of elden ring is completely unsubstantiated. In fact, its from softwares engine that proved it can't reliably handle an open world game with its stuttering that many suffer from. Blueprints demon souls engine owns anything from software could ever hope to muster.
From another comparison video the only thing I can say seems to be the other way round from what you said is hair/facial hair. Side by side Elden Ring has Demon's Souls beat there.
One is an exclusive with a small scale environment, meant to showcase the power of the console its running on, the other is a multi-platform, multi-gen open world game. I hope people's expectations are in check.
@@John-996 no one is talking about HFW, we talking about Demon Souls and Elden ring, and Elden Ring is also open world and is superior imo in terms of gameplay.
I just wish From Software could learn how to make multi-player that actually worked. The Demon's Souls remake had the better netcode and multi-player than anything From Software has done
The only things I wish they had taken onboard from Blueprint's masterful remake was the character breathing and exertion sounds, and the physics of dropped weapons and shields. Both were phenomenal and added so much immersion.
And the ragdoll physics of the enemies! Finally they were not as goofy like in previous Souls game but more realistic. Killing a human and seeing him fall down the stairs or collapse in a realistic behavior felt so satisfying
This video doesn't do Elden Ring justice, he keeps showing Limgrave, where it's pretty boring to see, whereas on the DS he's showing the lightning, the ruins/castles. DS looks better, but to be a reasonable comparison, he should have done this test on Leyndell (though Leyndell looks a bit prettier and less run down) or parts of Lucaria.
Yeah I don’t get it. At least show comparisons of a castle vs castle or something. All said Elden Ring, artistically, I think is superior. There are so many varied and interesting places. Demons souls looks great, no doubt, but it doesn’t have the variety and scale.
The video just shows the beginning part of both games. There are plenty of spectacular and varied and levels in DeS Remake too such as Tower of Latria.
@@BH-xe7nb It doesn't have the scale, but certainly has the variety just like og DeS. The remakes does show off really well how you can use modern lighting techniques to increase atmosphere however. The difference in the Storm King fight between the og and remake for example is insane.
Elden Ring is last Gen, Demon Souls was made specifically for Next Gen. While the mechanics are waaaay better on Elden Ring, Demon Souls PS5 graphics are in a whole new level. 1st time I booted the game I was mind blown. Not so much with Elden Ring, besides the open world, that was amazing to see👍🏻
Demon Souls Remake will always look better graphics wise. It was made exclusively for the PS5 and it is supposed to showcase the console's capabilities. Elden Ring is a game made for the masses and considering the open world design and the massive contents this game has, there are obvious limitations to how much they can ramp up the graphics. In my opinion, these souls game are more about the gameplay than the graphics.
Demon Souls looks wayyy better. However, it's important to note that Elden Ring is a cross gen game and also was made from scratch. Demon Souls just had to remake the same game from PS3 so obviously more time was spent on how it looked.
Yeah, having good graphics is a key aspect of remaking a game. Also ER is full open world too so I imagine it would be much harder to make it look as good as DS
@@pingblak By companies that had made multiple open world games with a different, standard format of mission based game play. Elden Ring is a completely different beast
@@sillythygoose if this were true why does red dead redemption look amazing? Just cause it’s open world doesn’t mean it can’t look as good as the DS remake . Elden ring looks like a ps4 game even on PS5. If you put Elden ring next to dark souls III you probably wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference. Pretty terrible
my only gripe with elden ring is that, even though the world is huge, i wish it was filled with armies of enemies instead of groups. the world is so big it should be teaming with alot more enemies. i hope they do events in the world and increase the difficulty in areas like caelid and add some new emotes to get or something new etc.
@@KingSavy100 considering after going into a grace your enemies respawn, im sure the groups are to make the areas more unique, this group patrols here with a knight at the helm, this group of orges are here with two birds bodyguarding etc, makes for some memorable social interactions from location to location
Having a big open world is a double edged sword. Yes Demon's Souls worlds' are small in terms of land area km^2 but every inch, every corner of the levels feel unique while tons of Elden Ring areas feel procedurally generated and samey.
@@maximany9506 No it enhanced the old shitty muddy game. You must be one of the idiots that perfers the original. The haptic feeback alone makes combat feel better. The audio is next level. I guess you don't knoe the term immersion because Elden Ring fails at that. Demon Souls has so much atomosphere with the art style and is the best looking game out there now. The original never made me feel immersed. All the structures look so much better. Good joke though
I'm sorry but the DS remake just looks so goddamn generic and bland. I'm not trying to be edgy or different from other people or so, but in my opinion it doesn't even hold a candle to Elden Ring in terms of art direction and lighting. Frankly, it doesn't even look or feel like a Souls game. I seriously don't see what people like so much about the game, visually speaking.
Elden Ring gameplay at its core is just another Souls game in an open world, that's the selling point of FromSoftware ips so your comment doesn't make sense
@@giovannilwando378 have you even played the games? demon's souls is VERY basic compared to DS3, bloodborne, sekiro, elden ring... if all games played the same people would've abandoned these games long ago.
@@num9146 when exactly did I say elden ring had shit music? Could you please go back and read the comment again 😂 I think your sight is definitely playing up my friend. Typical kid? Look at your comments, your spelling... You're about 12 haha
Honestly the sounds and visuals of demons souls is so fucking top notch. I genuinely wish Bluepoint and fromsoft would colab on a future souls-like title.
As someone who plays new retro graphical style games or even old games altogether (because old games don't stop being good all of a sudden just because new gen is here), I think they both look good.
Everyone arguing how elden ring looks bad compared to demon souls makes me realize once again how hard it's gonna be for this generation of kids to appreciate a video game to have fun and not stare at a screen, look at it, and turn it off because who plays videogames for the gameplay anymore when "muh graphics" are all they care about. Don't tell them about the ps3/xbox360 era, they'd think they were made when their parents were born
I mean demon souls was made just for the ps5 and elden ring was for all consoles including last gen. Also ER is open world and DS is not. But yeah DS does look better in a lot of areas. But hey, just bump up your contrast when you play ER and youre gucci lol
@@dereksavauge6613 Bluepoint didn't have the budget, manpower or time that From has either. And technical development is usually the lengthy part in videogame development. It doesnt take that much to come up with an idea, a script, and modifying it along the way. The hard part is putting that into code, refine it, test it, debug it, etc. From Soft are simply not that effective nor efficient at developing. Its also telling how they havent changed their formula since the launch of DS in the PS3 era. The amount of recycling they do. They should actually have even less leverage than CD Project Red with CP2077. They barely take any risks at all
@@an-dr6eu bluepoint started work in 2018 and had Japan studio helping along with funding from from soft. Obviously no one is saying that blue didn’t have to work hard, but to flat out pretend like it’s not WAY easier to remake a game than it is to make a new one is just asinine. As for the quality of their games, that is entirely subjective.
@@an-dr6eu tbf japanese devs don't really focus on graphics, Bluepoint is an western company and just had to remade something that had already been done but with stellar graphics to showcase PS5's power, Elden Ring just looks like an improved DS3 graphics-wise, which is not surprising to me
@@dereksavauge6613 I agree, i would be baffled if bluepoint screws up the remake. They only just have to focus on improving how everything looks and even more reason that literally enemy placement, stats, ect are the same as the original. There's little preparation compared to elden ring which sadly but understandably have less details in comparison
Bluepoint are technical wizards. Give them some exceptional art directors and they're going to create something unreal. Not that the visual direction of the remake is anything to sneeze at, but it seems that Fromsoft has a stronger vision when it comes to stuff like that. I feel that way about Shadow of the Colossus too. I still prefer the HD version to the remake because the look of the game makes the world a lot more ethereal.
@@LylatSASH The original demons souls had a unique art style that evolve to become elden ring. The remake looks like they took the art style of world of warcraft. It's a beautiful game, but the art style isn't as creative.
Demon's Souls is a remake by a different studio, so they already had the base game and could focus on the graphical aspect and mechanics. Elden Ring started being developed in 2016 from scratch, so they worked really hard to be up to the current graphics. They both look good, but it's obvious that Demon's Soul remake was made made for next gen from the start and Elden Ring is trying it's best to keep up. Both studios did a great job.
Stfu and stop making excuses. What about all the other games released. For this gen? Did GT7 and horizon forbidden west have ugly last gen graphics? Isn't Fromsoft using the same animations in most of their games?
Elden ring was not made from scratch, it's literally the same engine they've always used, just expanded to a more open world. Everything down the animations is the same as DS3.. In fact Bluepoint put all new animation into demon's souls and retro fit it into the engine and timings, which is much harder.
Besides, Elden Ring is a massive open world. It makes sense that Demons Souls Remake, which is not open world, would have better graphics. Elden Ring might be losing (by a tiny bit) on the graphics in comparison with Demon Souls Remake, but it's 100% worthy of the Souls franchise. A true masterpiece.
@@CGAA07017 i bet if blue point developed the graphics of Elden Ring they would be far superior from fromsoftware. They have many samples of good job at this point like the shadow of the colossus and others.
Both are great games in my opinion idc if from soft doesn’t look graphically better in comparison or at des remake level I think their both great and glad I got a ps5 to experience them both
It took me a while to adjust to the previous-gen graphics in Elden Ring after playing the remake of Demon’s Souls, but the art direction is so superb it eventually won me over.
@@TheWetworm I mean horizon is open world plus it's also on PS4 so for what it is that game graphically is amazing the only other game besides demon souls to blow me away
Demon souls no es remasterizacion, es remake, todas las graficas escenarios y sistemas graficos lo hicieron de nuevo desde cero, lo unico que Bluepoint tenia como base era el codigo del juego, un monton de artistas usaron los conceptos de arte original y remodelaron todo otra vez. Elden ring no decepcionante visualmente, vez juegos como Horizon zero dawn y Death Stranding que son tambien de mundo abierto con sistemas de clima y todo y se ven mucho mejor y esos juegos salieron muchos años antes que Elden Ring con las limitaciones de PS4
@@eduardoxavier4174 y? Me parece estúpido la gente que dice que el Demon souls se ve mejor, obviamente se va a ver mejor, pero es estúpido compararlos porque ambos tienen conceptos totalmente distintos
@@geswhm Try Bloodborne. The art style is similar but the environment and enemy design is miles ahead. It still looks like shit though, none of the Fromsoftware games have good graphics, physics and any or that but Bloodborne is amazing.
Demon souls was mostly just a graphics remaster in a pretty small game. Elden ring is such a huge game that it would firstly be a much larger game file and probably have rendering issues if it had much better graphics. Demon souls also uses a different engine to Elden ring
Demon Souls remake has better graphics, detail, audio design, particle effects. Elden ring art style is superior though which makes the game far more interesting, enemy design is superior, gameplay in all aspects is superior.
@@player-won6242 The people who were into the Souls genre like Iron Pineapple agreed that they could have done a lot more than just a graphical remake.
for the graphics and the artstyle i would choose demon's souls all day , but in terms of the world and the gameplay and the story it would be elden ring
Graphics demons souls of course but artstyle defnitely elden ring. It some pf the most amazing artsyle in any game ever shrely with the golden trees and sky colours
Any remake from Bluepoint Games will look even better than Demon's Souls considering they have learned the PlayStation 5 capabilities as such have a better understanding on how to improve it
and that is what most games are missing the mark on now a days, is good story line because they focus too much on graphics (not talking about demon souls in this case, I love demon souls both ps3 and ps5 versions). love that both of these games have good graphics and good story line
Demon's Souls looks much more polished, has better saturation, and sounds better as well. Elden Ring looks good too, and I would consider it a bit more "polished", but lacks in visual clarity and lighting.
What are you talking about in all the videos you can clearly see that Demon souls drags the stuffy gameplay of the original game, nothing to do with the speed and possibilities of elden Ring. The remake may give it a graphic overhaul, but ER beats it by far in gameplay and art design.
@@telacreiste984 Gameplay and art design? Gameplay ED is the same old clunky mechanics, the only challenge being trying to operate within its clunky mechanics, at least Demon Souls modernised it a bit. Art style Demon Souls is littleraly the route game which inspired everything, everything was based off that + the hand crafted linear levels look SO much better than Elden Rings generic MMO style open world, atmosphere and style.
@@TheWetworm have you actually played elden ring? its combat is so much better than the souls games, and i dont even know what you mean by "mmo stye" open world, if anything its more elder scrolls-like. this is from someone who tried and despised both ds1 and ds3
Uhhhhhh… what? Annoying inventory limit, the worst boss roster of the series, horrible level and stat balancing, the nonsensical and anti fun world tendency system, clunky boring 2009 enemy movesets, the simplest combat system with the least depth in the series. This game is old chief, elden ring mechanically smashes demon souls, lots of lessons have been learned since then.
Aclaro que este es mi opinión y no pretendo nadamas que compartir mi opinión... La verdad el Demon Souls se ve wow porque fue echo para next gen y aprovecha todo de esta generación, gráficamente me dejó boquiabierto el Demon Souls lo admito es todo un viaje sus niveles, peeero no es mundo abierto, mientras que Elden Ring si lo es peca al forzarse a llegar a la generación pasada y siento que eso baja un poco su calidad gráfica, solo gráfica, y ni hablar de su motor que arrastran que la verdad deja mucho que desear, pero lo que más me encanta es su mundo abierto y solo eso, pero siendo honesto apenas está aterrizando y le falta por mejorar mucho pero es un juego para ciertas personas así Demon souls lo es para otras, pero ambos juegazos, aunque de momento recomiendo que si quieres un souls next gen para ps5 vete por Demon Souls sin pensarlo en oferta tomalo, si quieres un souls para xbox o pc opta por este pero ojito, no desesperes aún esta en proceso de optimizacion y eso espero porque si deja un poquito que desear ese rendimiento para pedazo de juego
Si RDR2 siendo mundo abierto con gráficos extremos y con muchísimo más detalle, clima dinámico, día y noche, sientos de NPC's, que ya tiene 4 años de antigüedad, etc corre y se ve mil veces mejor que Elden Ring y eso corriendo en las consolas viejas ¿qué te hace justificar que Elden Ring se vea así de jodido? Ese argumento tendría peso si ningún juego se viera mejor que Elden Ring, pero no es el caso hay al menos 5 de mundo abierto de la generación pasada que lo destrozan.
From software graphics design has never been their strongsuit. Even kings field 4 the ancient city that they released in 2002 was much worse graphically then many other games coming out, but its from software's gameplay and level design team for why people love them. From software games feel unique to play, no other company can make games that feel like from software games, even though they tried. There is something so old school feeling about from software that makes people love them.
They stated that graphical fidelity is not their focus, the gameplay is. So most of the budget is allocated towards perfecting dynamic gameplay elements, and thus graphics take the backseat.
@@sethadams7533 He is right. It's just open world Dark Souls. That can be great or even disappointing depending on which criterias you use to assert the game's quality. But it didn't remake any genre.
Some of you might call me crazy but damn, for me Elden Ring has the same good graphics as demon souls remake (well, graphics doesn’t really matter that much to a video game for me anyway, I prefer the gameplay at a game much more)
I completely understand. The fidelity is obviously better in Demon’s but the way that Elden Ring can use art direction, lighting, and atmosphere is superior in every way and pushes them at least on the same level. Maybe one day we’ll get a patch for Elden Ring that gives it the fidelity too, for the best of both worlds
Demons Souls will always have a special place in my heart , starting off the ps5 era with a bang and being an amazing game, it just has that eerie charm , il probably hold out on getting Elden for a while but I grabbed D.S on release
@@evriposss you’re not bad mate you probably just aren’t used to it , I urge you to give it another try, as it’s so rewarding once you get to the end, I actually played the original ps3 version before I got the remake cause I was so exited so I had a rough idea of how to tackle each dungeon, it’s all about patients timing and your build , and definitely do a royalty run if you want an easier time , magic is the way ✨

@@crazyworldoutthere4379 but but but why would bluepoint make fromsoft games??? Like what are you saying? The pc I can’t speak for so you’re right about that, but it actually runs ridiculously well on a base PS4???
You do realize that the sole reason why From Software games are beloved by the community is because of Miyazaki right? He also has gained the respect and the trust of his fans as well. Taking control from the lore and story to combat and level design. Optimization is without a doubt the only problem that the studio needs to resolve. Alongside either improve their old game engine or develop their games in more optimized and modernized engines. Other than that, most of their titles are all sprawling masterpieces.
@@amirulfaisal4208 exactly and mainly optimisation of pc, it’s incredible that Elden ring can even keep a steady 30 FPS on a base PS4, it’s greatly optimised on console
To be fair to FromSoftware they had to actually design these games and bring them to a graphical standard that works on all consoles and pc it supports. Bluepoint really just redid the graphics for one console and did an stupidly amazing job.
Acting like Elden ring isn’t a beautiful looking game is insane. If you expected Elden Ring to have the same graphical quality as Demon souls you’re crazy. Elden ring is like 5x bigger and it already has frame rate issues. With Demon souls graphics it would be unplayable
@@TipppedScales1015 well, it was promised to be released in those platforms initially, so they had to deliver. also I'm confident the reason many developers are not releasing next-gen only games is because of the lack of the people in those consoles. There are millions of people still on PS4 cuz no PS5 to find and buy
Bro Demon Souls is like 12 year old game with tiny narrow levels. The amount of processing power it takes for a ps5 to run even a remastered version is considerably less than the wide scope of elden ring
I just don't know. Elden ring is really close to dark souls 3 both in grapichs and gameplay, even with the gap of years, fromsoft could do even better. I'm kind of dissapointed by elden ring because 2 point i've been say.
No hate on demon's souls remake. It is an amazing looking game. Absolutely breathtaking. But it is important to note that most of the hard work was done for them as it is almost 1:1 remake. There had to be atleast some selling point to the game if you didn't have to develope the rest of the game. Hence they focused on graphics.
@@sakuragi1062 is it even really a remake tho, from what I gather bluepoint didn't really change anything much in the game, Ps5 demon souls is more like a remaster than a remake. I mean they didn't even bother fixing things, the problems in the og still exist, except for the amazing graphical fidelity, newly added animations nothing else changed to me. Correct me if I'm wrong tho. Cause for me this nothing close to a remake as they didn't do much at all.
let's be real, demons souls remake is literally just graphics, not hating on gameplay or other stuff but that was completely already done 10 years ago lmao. I bet development was 95% on the visuals
@@pedoletto5138 didn't they also did a remake for Shadow of the colossus? same thing happened, they upgraded the graphics and added some quality of life improvements (like control, camera etc.). Do you really even call that a remake? Or a remaster, I am so confused now lmao. Also I don't get the hype about the rumor of bluepoint making the sequel for Bloodborne, I mean sure they are great when it comes to graphics but come on they only did the graphics and did nothing remarkable in their 'remaked games. I doubt they could make a good sequel to such a very good game.
Both elden ring and demons are insanely mind blowing the elden ring is an open world which is also mind blowing and the demon soul's remake is also mind blowing both same level
I just laugh at the comments trying to justify Elden Ring bad graphics because it's an open world game lol if RDR2, Horizon Forbidden West, Spiderman and Cyberpunk look that good running on last gen consoles while being open world games with way more density and details what makes you think Elden Ring can't? The developers are simply lazy when it comes to graphics and framerate.

I have both, and I was playing Elden Ring first time yesterdya evening, DS is far more superior visual wise. Elden ring looks good, but again it is visually nothing compared DS. Look for the character creation for instance, look at Elden Ring, looks good, but then you look at DS character selection, those faces blow your mind!!!
One’s a remake with the only difference from the original being graphics, the other is a an open world rpg 5 times larger, comparing apples to oranges here
@@adonicetrig8908 both are the same game mechanics bro, what are you talking about? Both games are literally the same in almost every aspect, the only difference being the open world setting. I still am hooked to Elden Ring, friggin awesome game, but again DS looks visually far more superior. Btw, the dude who made this video also thinks that both games are similar, thats why the comparison video.
@@Saab79Turbo they are not the same dude, one’s an open world rpg with a map the size of a real life city, horse combat, sneaking, countering, freedom of levelling up, gear customisation and, imo, the most polished combat we’ve had in any game to this day, while the other is the same linear dungeon crawler from 2009 with a fresh coat of paint. Now don’t get me wrong, there are mechanics in ER from DeS, at the end of the day, ER encompasses elements from all FromSoft games, but they are beyond different from eachother. Yes DeSr looks better, ofc it would, it was made to push the PS5 to the max, while ER is on all platforms, they had to obviously cut corners to get what they got. The only game mechanics they have in common are the Health/stamina/FP management, the storytelling and the currency/level up resources…which are a part of all FromSoft games anyway (excluding Sekiro to some degree). It’s like saying Doom and Halo are similar cuz both guys wear green armour and shoot at non-human enemies, mostly, which is plain wrong.
@@adonicetrig8908 my bro, elements as open world, horse, more bosses, etc are all elements of the game, that has nothing to do with performance. Only thing I can agree on with you is the fact that one was idd designed as an exclusive launch game and the other for all consoles, I give you that. But, it sure doesn't change the fact that both games are quite the similar in many aspects. So again, it is a legit comparison. Its definately not comparing apples with pears, quite the opposite. One is a red apple, other is a green apple. Its not like he is comparing a souls game with a nioh game? Which is also a quite similar as a "game", but definately not rhe same performance wise, character design, level design, etc.
@@Saab79Turbo u lost me when u said that the “open world and more bosses doesn’t affect performance”, like cmon dude, that’s like saying that I drink water because I’m not thirsty, ofc a much bigger game on the same engine would be impacted by the sheer amount of extra assets needed to fill in the worldspace, I won’t repeat myself but I’ll say the first thing I said before, ER has 5 times as much content than DeSr, that’s more than justifiable enough for poorer graphics. Just because they have some elements in common, like I said before, that doesn’t mean they’re the same thing, they are individual games, I’ll give u more examples, The Witcher 3 and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Halo Infinite and Doom Eternal, Mortal Kombat X and Injustice 1, Dark Souls 3 and Monster Hunter World, Forza Horizon 5 and Gran Turismo 7, Fifa and Pes, the list goes on. The two games are not the same, somewhat similar in some aspects? Yes, albeit being completely different genres of games. A green apple to red apple example would be Dark Souls 2 to Dark Souls 3 or The Witcher 2 to The Witcher 3 or AC Valhalla to AC Odyssey. Demon Souls to Elden Ring is like Bloodborne to Elden Ring, not the same.
Bluepoint did great on this and shadow of the colossus. That being said, Fromsoft made the design, lore (as much as there is in DS), gameplay and atmosphere. In my opinion those are more important than flashy graphics. I'd really like to see Bluepoint make an actual new IP because they're really talented on the graphical side. Hopefully that rumor they are is true.
Yep. And don't forget the amazing aspects of demon souls(such as gameplay and lore) were made by from software. They just remake the graphics. I heard rumors of them teaming up with from software to make a new game. Hopefully its true.
Demon souls looks soooooooo much better, I remember the atmosphere being so intense on my first playthrough. Made me want to explore every inch of the game. Dying wasn’t really frustrating I wanted to see more of this dark, but yet beautiful world. When Elden improve its visual maybe I’ll give it a chance but I’d rather replay ds3.
DS3 was the most overrated and worse of the series I don’t get why people praise it so much. DS2 had way more content and secrets but gets hate for its aesthetics which even than wasn’t that fucking bad smh
I very much prefer Elden Ring's diverse palette and overall aesthetic but it's really clear that the DS remake has superior graphical fidelity and attention to detail. My only complaint about Elden Ring is that light sources like torches and lamps don't emit any shadows. The character just sort of glows from front to back.
I also figured that elden ring’s size could also have something to do with their graphic capabilities. I mean to have the same level of details from the DS Remake to Elden Ring might be too much and cause problem for players. Where as Demon Souls isn’t as open world as Elden Ring with its entirety divided into different areas.
Seeing all the elden ring fanboys coping and making excuses is hilarious, sure the game may play great, I don't play souls games so I wouldn't know, but holy shit this looks start to mid ps4 era and people are too brainwashed tok admit it.
The community doesn't care about the graphics bro. ER might be one of the most revolutionary open world games released in a while, maybe of all time. If you want to miss it out because it doesn't look like a Rockstar game be my guest.
@@Solaire_of_Astora13 Why does that matter? Reality won't change if he likes BF, AC, TW, RDR or Minecraft. ER has several issues and it is outdated in almost every possible way, and that is a fact wheter u like it or not. Fromsoft fanboys stop shaming yourselves.
Seems like a weird comparison considering everything you showed from Elden Ring is in one area near the beginning and you’re comparing it to completely different things in Demon’s Souls. Raya Lucaria is quite impressive as are many other areas in Elden Ring that aren’t the beginning.
People just get things wrong... ART DIRECTION and GRAPHICS are totally different things... ER probably has a better art direction but there no way to have better GRAPHICS than DSR which is a next gen game, period!
I like the artdirection of demons souls more because it looks more like dark souls. Elden ring is too vibrant, not depressive enought, even the overworld music sounds too happy. Demons souls artdirection is more dark-souls-like and depressive.
Showcasing Elden Rings graphics only on the starting open world area in the sunny weather. Truly a genius, did everything to make Elden Rings graphics look bad... If you compare the graphics you need to find comparable shots. Elden Ring has castles too and there it looks fantastic. Oh sorry, to see that you actually need to PLAY the game, and not just to enter it to record 10 minutes of footage. Graphics is not super advanced, but style is dope and it is excells in its atmosphere. The only concern I have in terms of style is sunny weather during the day.... It looks too oversaturated. In the other weather conditions it looks great
Looking at this comparison, they actually look almost comparable. But having played both games the difference in visual fidelity is huge. The tree canopies are 2d ffs XD. But I think what does it for me mostly is the framerate. Demon´s Souls is a pretty much flawless 60 fps, while the ps5 version of Elden Ring stutters constantly. Feels a little like the game is struggling. I really hope they manage to patch it.
You bought a full price game and stopped playing after less than an hour because it felt like a 2014 game? You must be joking right? First of all there are barely any games of this caliber from that time. I would even say no game from that time that is this huge and densely packed. And even if it was really like an older title what's wrong with that?
@@valentinvas6454 Nothing wrong with that, it's just pointing how it didn't require my needs, so if anybody from here had same wide monitor avoid it as it was an unpleasant experience from my point of view
Well, all of fromsoft games always focus on gameplay. Dark souls, demon souls (ps3), bloodborne, sekiro, armored core. They always focus on gameplay first, story second, and graphic third (more like art direction than graphic). The last is technical stability. Like, their PC port is troublesome. If you want to play games with focus on graphic, try unreal engine 5 titles or demo.
It's been two years since Elden Ring came out, seems like so many things have been improved in Elden Ring on console version. Apart from Ray Tracing mode, Elden Ring is a pure masterclass in every aspect. Ray tracing adds too much in terms of graphics but unfortunately it just works on some areas, but for instance in Limgrave, everything turns into a soup.
Elden Ring's art style and design make it look next gen, but there are a lot of compromises like pop in, longer loading times and it barely keeps up the 60fps, they're using an updated version of their old engine and it makes it look like a glorified ps4 game. Demon's Souls runs perfectly, steady 60fps, looks great, loads quick, real next gen experience, its just missing that From Software touch that Elden Ring has.
@@Wakshak321 I know but it's the exact same game just with a new engine, so the world aesthetic and design is extremely faithful (almost to a fault imho) to the original from software game on ps3. That's why I'm surprised you said it lacks the From software touch since it's the exact same design and artistic vision that from had just with a better graphical engine and hardware obviously.
@@nanofcb3024 Its not the exact same game, the animations look different, the graphics are less washed out without that blueish filter, the colors in the remake are warmer, less "grim", the bosses and npcs, even the enemies look somewhat different, in a way that another studio can't replicate. Its all based on the original game with pretty much all locations, enemy placement etc being the same, but its the little things that its missing from the original that FS puts in their games, even Elden Ring, which the remake of DS doesn't have. Its still a good game like the original, for different reasons, but you can't possibly say its "the same just better"
Elden Ring echoes a problem I've been noticing for the past couple of years now. As new graphics cards come out, more companies become lazy and don't optimize their games because they expect everyone to have overpriced graphics cards and they expect overpriced graphics cards to run anything they throw at them. Video game companies have started to rely on us spending more money to run the game better, than actually making their game run better.
@@Minecarftable exactly people would wonder why I argued against dlss so much when it came out, it's because of shit like this, bandaids don't heal wounds they just cover them up
@@jackjax7921 not anymore, from now on I'm not buying anything at release, I'll just wait 6 months - a year later when the game is either fixed or half price
Elden Ring looks cartoonish and less detail hasn't got good lighting compared to Demons Souls which looks so much better but how does the game play held up between the two. I have seen reviews that Elden Ring stutters a lot on pc and has some issues unless that's all been fixed and patched out. Shame that Demons Soles isn't out for pc that would of looked even better
What? No way?!? Elden Ring is an open world and Demon's Souls isn't?!?! Who told you that?!? You'd have to be a genius to know that one. Thanks Captain obvious, we really needed your completely obvious insight.

Next gen graphics and last gen mechanics

@@ilusiil so it's not truly next gen he is talking like demon souls is better than elden ring in every way, which isn't the mechanics is dated.
How about Ratchet Rift apart?
@@nejihiashi He never said "in every way". This is a graphics comparison video, so clearly he was talking about graphics. In which case he's correct, because graphically it is a far more advanced game than Elden Ring.
people forgetting that the sound design in demons souls is incredible. its so impressive with sound details they put in the game
Yeah and no 3D Audio for Elden Ring on PS5.
Literally the other way around.
It's so clean it sounds almost cartoonish, it's horrible.
Agreed, but I could say the same about Elden Ring. Not in terms of technology, maybe, but the way some enemies can be recognized by almost iconic sounds (like those singing "harpies" for instance, or those trumpet playing enemies in Leyndell) is peak sound design.
demons souls sounds amazing. that 3d audio is really something… hearing the first dragon fly over you on the bridge for the first time… that was a nice feeling lol. elden ring doesn’t have any kind of 3d audio on the next gen consoles, but it still sounds good with the right headphones/soundbar/speakers.
Sounds like playing samples in a soundproof studio, overly clean, mechanical and sterile. I hate it.
Demon souls looks like a cinematic trailer, it looks so atmospheric.
Fair enough. But its interesting to point out that Elden Ring is almost 8x larger than Demon's Souls.

@@plimpus3160 Which arstyle dude? lol
@@MrMadmaggot he is delusional
@@ilusiil that’s not what it is. Demon souls remake is a ps5 exclusive game that could push the limits. Elden is a game that from software had to make playable on last gen as well as next gen. If they made the game as “beautiful” as demon souls remake then there wouldn’t be a ps4/Xbox 1 port
This is a fun comparison to do and everything, but I think to be fair we have to keep in mind that Elden Ring is a game that started development on last-gen hardware, and is cross platform. It needed to be able to be playable on a base model original PS4 and Xbone. The Demon's Souls remake is game designed specifically to show off the PS5.
Then they should release a next-gen update somewhere down the line
@@Austin-xi6ku Well in this case a next gen update that would even remotely compare to dedicated remastered would be impossible. I could imagine them at most increasing the frames, adding some fancy lighting techniques, and dlss, but they will not have sweeping changes to animations, face designs, etc.
@@Austin-xi6ku There IS a next-gen version. It just doesn't look drastically different from the previous gen version (it adds a little more environmental detail and such, but that's about it). Also FromSoft isn't really known for flashy graphics. It is what it is, Elden Ring looks more than good enough.
from software confirmed that they are adding raytracing in a future update for the next gen consoles. that’ll be interesting. but honestly, this game looks really good in my opinion, especially the character animations.
Horizon Forbidden West also runs on PS4 and tell me about those graphics and performance..
Like how as different as they are they both look incredibly well and just work to the point of if you switched them graphically it’d be more of a detriment.

@Michael Harrington Like your mom
Even if Elden Ring would have been made without last-gen consoles in mind, I'm not sure that would have made it better. Part of why they can have such a massive world and so many bosses is because it's faster to make lower quality assets.
Also the studio isn't as experienced in the graphics and networking department. BluePoint who is now a Sony 1st party made Demon Souls which is why their game looks so good. The have the resources to put into the title.
@@shira2151 And they didn't had to spend time designing the maps, story, characters or mechanics. They had the base and could focus all their efforts in improving graphics and overall experience from what they already had.
@@thyron that’s not even why fromsoft has lack luster graphics it’s simply because there art direction carries there games & the graphics are just fine for what we’ve come to expect. Fromsoft also has little dialogue work to do, little explaining, little hand holding with the player, it’s not just the graphical side of things at all they skip so much more
Same as Breath of the wild.
This isn't necessarily true at all actually. with super realistic graphics you can actually take advantage of serious time-saving things like photogrammetry assets from quixel megascans, most of the time-consuming stuff comes from optimization, in a sense, elden ring is held back because it has to run on last-gen consoles, they couldn't get away with as much as demon souls remake could.
Demons soul has clearly a better graphics. But given that Elden ring is an open world game which needs to load much wider scope of space, I think both are equally great work.
Horizon is also open world and there's a really big difference in the graphics between it and ER, still a great game, guess FS don't really care about the visual quality, but the art is amazing.
@@abreguini u do realise that Horizon is less than a fourth the size of Elden ring when it comes to content right? What they did, on old and new gen consoles and pc is beyond outstanding
@@adonicetrig8908 well, I'm playing and loving both, but I had found a lot more to do in horizon, there's NPCs every where, there are machine sites every here and there, Elden ring have an NPC almost never, and the enemies are pretty dispersed when not in dungeons.
@@abreguini u joking right? There’s a new dungeon or mine or castle or fort or camp with secret areas and rooms every 3 minutes in Elden Ring. The map alone is three times that of Horizon. I said content, and content is not just NPCs lmao, side quests, bosses, enemy variety, weapons, move sets, magic, gear, endings, NG+, multiplayer, and so on. It’s like comparing oranges to apples, one game is short but sweet while the other will be played for years until all secrets are discovered by the community. Elden Ring must be ur first FromSoft game based on ur criteria of content lmao.
Demon's Soul has a considerable smaller scope even compared to the first Dark Souls. Elden ring in on another league entirely. Even Bluepoint woudn't be able to produce that amount of assets with the same quality as the Demon's Souls remake.
Realistically I didn't expect Elden Ring to look nearly as good, given it's open world nature and dynamic lighting. As compared to bluepoints expertise in graphical fidelity and advantage of using fixed lighting and linear,smaller levels.
Elden ring does hold up on its once in places like it's legacy dungeons and with certain lighting though.
The overall scale combined with fantastic art design (and pretty good lighting!) make Elden Ring beautiful.
I don’t know why I keep seeing people say this, considering how Horizon Forbidden West is open world yet the environment even on PS4 has higher fidelity than Elden Ring.
@@WolverineBatman totally different studios. One of which is Playstation exclusive, optimizing specifically for that platform. And mainly, fromsoft has never focused and pushing the envelope with graphics.
Implying blueprints engine couldn't translate to the open world of elden ring is completely unsubstantiated.

The only things I wish they had taken onboard from Blueprint's masterful remake was the character breathing and exertion sounds, and the physics of dropped weapons and shields. Both were phenomenal and added so much immersion.
And the ragdoll physics of the enemies! Finally they were not as goofy like in previous Souls game but more realistic. Killing a human and seeing him fall down the stairs or collapse in a realistic behavior felt so satisfying

Demons souls is one of the best looking games period. Very few games have been able to match it since it came out.
This video doesn't do Elden Ring justice, he keeps showing Limgrave, where it's pretty boring to see, whereas on the DS he's showing the lightning, the ruins/castles. DS looks better, but to be a reasonable comparison, he should have done this test on Leyndell (though Leyndell looks a bit prettier and less run down) or parts of Lucaria.
Yeah I don’t get it. At least show comparisons of a castle vs castle or something. All said Elden Ring, artistically, I think is superior. There are so many varied and interesting places. Demons souls looks great, no doubt, but it doesn’t have the variety and scale.

Demon Souls Remake will always look better graphics wise. It was made exclusively for the PS5 and it is supposed to showcase the console's capabilities.

There's little preparation compared to elden ring which sadly but understandably have less details in comparison
I like the overall art direction a lot more in Elden Ring. It looks so fantastical
Bluepoint are technical wizards. Give them some exceptional art directors and they're going to create something unreal. Not that the visual direction of the remake is anything to sneeze at, but it seems that Fromsoft has a stronger vision when it comes to stuff like that. I feel that way about Shadow of the Colossus too. I still prefer the HD version to the remake because the look of the game makes the world a lot more ethereal.
i know youre trying to come to terms it takes time. also not saying elden ring is bad i like it more than demon souls but graphically come on bruh
@@LylatSASH The original demons souls had a unique art style that evolve to become elden ring. The remake looks like they took the art style of world of warcraft. It's a beautiful game, but the art style isn't as creative.
@@Sk8rGamer You misunderstood him, art direction has nothing to do with graphics or realism, for that matter.
@@anecro oh i can see that i guess but even that i like the cold atmosphere of demon souls
Demon's Souls is a remake by a different studio, so they already had the base game and could focus on the graphical aspect and mechanics. Elden Ring started being developed in 2016 from scratch, so they worked really hard to be up to the current graphics. They both look good, but it's obvious that Demon's Soul remake was made made for next gen from the start and Elden Ring is trying it's best to keep up. Both studios did a great job.
Optimism for the win
Stfu and stop making excuses. What about all the other games released. For this gen? Did GT7 and horizon forbidden west have ugly last gen graphics? Isn't Fromsoft using the same animations in most of their games?
Elden ring was not made from scratch, it's literally the same engine they've always used, just expanded to a more open world. Everything down the animations is the same as DS3..
In fact Bluepoint put all new animation into demon's souls and retro fit it into the engine and timings, which is much harder.
Besides, Elden Ring is a massive open world. It makes sense that Demons Souls Remake, which is not open world, would have better graphics. Elden Ring might be losing (by a tiny bit) on the graphics in comparison with Demon Souls Remake, but it's 100% worthy of the Souls franchise. A true masterpiece.
@@CGAA07017 i bet if blue point developed the graphics of Elden Ring they would be far superior from fromsoftware. They have many samples of good job at this point like the shadow of the colossus and others.
Both are great games in my opinion idc if from soft doesn’t look graphically better in comparison or at des remake level I think their both great and glad I got a ps5 to experience them both
It took me a while to adjust to the previous-gen graphics in Elden Ring after playing the remake of Demon’s Souls, but the art direction is so superb it eventually won me over.
Demons Souls is the benchmark for next gen graphics

@@TheWetworm I mean horizon is open world plus it's also on PS4 so for what it is that game graphically is amazing the only other game besides demon souls to blow me away
Elder Ring: mundo abierto con iluminación dinámica y cambios de clima
Demon souls: juego lineal con una iluminación ya predefinida
Demon souls no es remasterizacion, es remake, todas las graficas escenarios y sistemas graficos lo hicieron de nuevo desde cero, lo unico que Bluepoint tenia como base era el codigo del juego, un monton de artistas usaron los conceptos de arte original y remodelaron todo otra vez.
Elden ring no decepcionante visualmente, vez juegos como Horizon zero dawn y Death Stranding que son tambien de mundo abierto con sistemas de clima y todo y se ven mucho mejor y esos juegos salieron muchos años antes que Elden Ring con las limitaciones de PS4

Demon souls was mostly just a graphics remaster in a pretty small game. Elden ring is such a huge game that it would firstly be a much larger game file and probably have rendering issues if it had much better graphics. Demon souls also uses a different engine to Elden ring
Demon Souls remake has better graphics, detail, audio design, particle effects. Elden ring art style is superior though which makes the game far more interesting, enemy design is superior, gameplay in all aspects is superior.
of course gameplay is superior. DS is a 2009 game and bluepoint didn't change gameplay

Not even a contest.
Demon's Souls is really beautiful.
3D sound in Dark Souls must be crazy
It is , sounds intense as hell
It is.
Elden ring is a massive world and an enormous game with story. I’ll take that over graphics anyday
and that is what most games are missing the mark on now a days, is good story line because they focus too much on graphics (not talking about demon souls in this case, I love demon souls both ps3 and ps5 versions). love that both of these games have good graphics and good story line
Ghost of Tsushima: "uhhhh..."
a fromsoftware game with a good story?
What a lie
The texture maps from both games almost look identical. I think if Elden Ring added global illumination and VF, it would look gorgeous.
This was on resolution mode of performance ?
Demon's Souls looks much more polished, has better saturation, and sounds better as well. Elden Ring looks good too, and I would consider it a bit more "polished", but lacks in visual clarity and lighting.
Elden Rings almost a joke in comparison. Demon Souls is waaaay better, in almost every single way, even the controls just feel better in DS.
nah, Elden Ring is better videogame
What are you talking about in all the videos you can clearly see that Demon souls drags the stuffy gameplay of the original game, nothing to do with the speed and possibilities of elden Ring. The remake may give it a graphic overhaul, but ER beats it by far in gameplay and art design.
@@telacreiste984 Gameplay and art design?
Gameplay ED is the same old clunky mechanics, the only challenge being trying to operate within its clunky mechanics, at least Demon Souls modernised it a bit.
Art style Demon Souls is littleraly the route game which inspired everything, everything was based off that + the hand crafted linear levels look SO much better than Elden Rings generic MMO style open world, atmosphere and style.
@@TheWetworm have you actually played elden ring? its combat is so much better than the souls games, and i dont even know what you mean by "mmo stye" open world, if anything its more elder scrolls-like. this is from someone who tried and despised both ds1 and ds3
Uhhhhhh… what? Annoying inventory limit, the worst boss roster of the series, horrible level and stat balancing, the nonsensical and anti fun world tendency system, clunky boring 2009 enemy movesets, the simplest combat system with the least depth in the series. This game is old chief, elden ring mechanically smashes demon souls, lots of lessons have been learned since then.
Aclaro que este es mi opinión y no pretendo nadamas que compartir mi opinión...
La verdad el Demon Souls se ve wow porque fue echo para next gen y aprovecha todo de esta generación, gráficamente me dejó boquiabierto el Demon Souls lo admito es todo un viaje sus niveles, peeero no es mundo abierto, mientras que Elden Ring si lo es peca al forzarse a llegar a la generación pasada y siento que eso baja un poco su calidad gráfica, solo gráfica, y ni hablar de su motor que arrastran que la verdad deja mucho que desear, pero lo que más me encanta es su mundo abierto y solo eso, pero siendo honesto apenas está aterrizando y le falta por mejorar mucho pero es un juego para ciertas personas así Demon souls lo es para otras, pero ambos juegazos, aunque de momento recomiendo que si quieres un souls next gen para ps5 vete por Demon Souls sin pensarlo en oferta tomalo, si quieres un souls para xbox o pc opta por este pero ojito, no desesperes aún esta en proceso de optimizacion y eso espero porque si deja un poquito que desear ese rendimiento para pedazo de juego
completamente de acuerdo
Horizon Forbidden West has an open world and looks A HUNDRED TIMES better than ER. Stop making up excuses for an outdated engine.
Si RDR2 siendo mundo abierto con gráficos extremos y con muchísimo más detalle, clima dinámico, día y noche, sientos de NPC's, que ya tiene 4 años de antigüedad, etc corre y se ve mil veces mejor que Elden Ring y eso corriendo en las consolas viejas ¿qué te hace justificar que Elden Ring se vea así de jodido? Ese argumento tendría peso si ningún juego se viera mejor que Elden Ring, pero no es el caso hay al menos 5 de mundo abierto de la generación pasada que lo destrozan.
@@fernando_alfradiqueSe muy bonito pero es una porquería el horizon, súper scripteado el gameplay. Además de la historia cringe.

By 'soon' I would expect maybe 10 years :)
From software graphics design has never been their strongsuit. Even kings field 4 the ancient city that they released in 2002 was much worse graphically then many other games coming out, but its from software's gameplay and level design team for why people love them. From software games feel unique to play, no other company can make games that feel like from software games, even though they tried. There is something so old school feeling about from software that makes people love them.
They stated that graphical fidelity is not their focus, the gameplay is. So most of the budget is allocated towards perfecting dynamic gameplay elements, and thus graphics take the backseat.
God of war....?
Bluepoint did an incredible job remaking Demon’s Souls, but Elden Ring remade an entire genre.

I completely understand. The fidelity is obviously better in Demon’s but the way that Elden Ring can use art direction, lighting, and atmosphere is superior in every way and pushes them at least on the same level.

You do realize that the sole reason why From Software games are beloved by the community is because of Miyazaki right? He also has gained the respect and the trust of his fans as well. Taking control from the lore and story to combat and level design. Optimization is without a doubt the only problem that the studio needs to resolve. Alongside either improve their old game engine or develop their games in more optimized and modernized engines. Other than that, most of their titles are all sprawling masterpieces.

@@TipppedScales1015 well, it was promised to be released in those platforms initially, so they had to deliver. also I'm confident the reason many developers are not releasing next-gen only games is because of the lack of the people in those consoles.

Because it's built on the same ancient in-house engine
No hate on demon's souls remake. It is an amazing looking game. Absolutely breathtaking. But it is important to note that most of the hard work was done for them as it is almost 1:1 remake. There had to be atleast some selling point to the game if you didn't have to develope the rest of the game. Hence they focused on graphics.
Yeah Demon's Souls visually looks way better, but it's almost like that Resident Evil 4 HD mod that is in the making.
Thats the whole point of remake to bump the graphics where have you been?
@@sakuragi1062 is it even really a remake tho, from what I gather bluepoint didn't really change anything much in the game, Ps5 demon souls is more like a remaster than a remake.

Correct me if I'm wrong tho. Cause for me this nothing close to a remake as they didn't do much at all.

I have both, and I was playing Elden Ring first time yesterdya evening, DS is far more superior visual wise. Elden ring looks good, but again it is visually nothing compared DS. Look for the character creation for instance, look at Elden Ring, looks good, but then you look at DS character selection, those faces blow your mind!!!
One’s a remake with the only difference from the original being graphics, the other is a an open world rpg 5 times larger, comparing apples to oranges here
@@adonicetrig8908 both are the same game mechanics bro, what are you talking about? Both games are literally the same in almost every aspect, the only difference being the open world setting. I still am hooked to Elden Ring, friggin awesome game, but again DS looks visually far more superior. Btw, the dude who made this video also thinks that both games are similar, thats why the comparison video.
@@Saab79Turbo they are not the same dude, one’s an open world rpg with a map the size of a real life city, horse combat, sneaking, countering, freedom of levelling up, gear customisation and, imo, the most polished combat we’ve had in any game to this day, while the other is the same linear dungeon crawler from 2009 with a fresh coat of paint. Now don’t get me wrong, there are mechanics in ER from DeS, at the end of the day, ER encompasses elements from all FromSoft games, but they are beyond different from eachother. Yes DeSr looks better, ofc it would, it was made to push the PS5 to the max, while ER is on all platforms, they had to obviously cut corners to get what they got. The only game mechanics they have in common are the Health/stamina/FP management, the storytelling and the currency/level up resources…which are a part of all FromSoft games anyway (excluding Sekiro to some degree). It’s like saying Doom and Halo are similar cuz both guys wear green armour and shoot at non-human enemies, mostly, which is plain wrong.
@@adonicetrig8908 my bro, elements as open world, horse, more bosses, etc are all elements of the game, that has nothing to do with performance. Only thing I can agree on with you is the fact that one was idd designed as an exclusive launch game and the other for all consoles, I give you that. But, it sure doesn't change the fact that both games are quite the similar in many aspects. So again, it is a legit comparison. Its definately not comparing apples with pears, quite the opposite. One is a red apple, other is a green apple. Its not like he is comparing a souls game with a nioh game? Which is also a quite similar as a "game", but definately not rhe same performance wise, character design, level design, etc.
@@Saab79Turbo u lost me when u said that the “open world and more bosses doesn’t affect performance”, like cmon dude, that’s like saying that I drink water because I’m not thirsty, ofc a much bigger game on the same engine would be impacted by the sheer amount of extra assets needed to fill in the worldspace, I won’t repeat myself but I’ll say the first thing I said before, ER has 5 times as much content than DeSr, that’s more than justifiable enough for poorer graphics. Just because they have some elements in common, like I said before, that doesn’t mean they’re the same thing, they are individual games, I’ll give u more examples, The Witcher 3 and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Halo Infinite and Doom Eternal, Mortal Kombat X and Injustice 1, Dark Souls 3 and Monster Hunter World, Forza Horizon 5 and Gran Turismo 7, Fifa and Pes, the list goes on. The two games are not the same, somewhat similar in some aspects? Yes, albeit being completely different genres of games. A green apple to red apple example would be Dark Souls 2 to Dark Souls 3 or The Witcher 2 to The Witcher 3 or AC Valhalla to AC Odyssey. Demon Souls to Elden Ring is like Bloodborne to Elden Ring, not the same.
Demons souls graphic is much more beautiful than elden ring.......i love demons souls 😘😘😘
Bluepoint did great on this and shadow of the colossus. That being said, Fromsoft made the design, lore (as much as there is in DS), gameplay and atmosphere. In my opinion those are more important than flashy graphics. I'd really like to see Bluepoint make an actual new IP because they're really talented on the graphical side. Hopefully that rumor they are is true.
Yep. And don't forget the amazing aspects of demon souls(such as gameplay and lore) were made by from software. They just remake the graphics.
I heard rumors of them teaming up with from software to make a new game. Hopefully its true.

Clearly Elden Ring is made with the Dark Souls 2 engine and asets, same animations, walk style etc...
PhyreEngine
Demon's Souls looks better yes. Nobody would disagree. But that isn't to say Elden Ring looks bad. Some scenes in ER are absolutely breath taking.
I very much prefer Elden Ring's diverse palette and overall aesthetic but it's really clear that the DS remake has superior graphical fidelity and attention to detail. My only complaint about Elden Ring is that light sources like torches and lamps don't emit any shadows. The character just sort of glows from front to back.
That Ray tracing patch needs to hurry up and get here lol.
I also figured that elden ring’s size could also have something to do with their graphic capabilities. I mean to have the same level of details from the DS Remake to Elden Ring might be too much and cause problem for players. Where as Demon Souls isn’t as open world as Elden Ring with its entirety divided into different areas.
Seeing all the elden ring fanboys coping and making excuses is hilarious, sure the game may play great, I don't play souls games so I wouldn't know, but holy shit this looks start to mid ps4 era and people are too brainwashed tok admit it.

I like the artdirection of demons souls more because it looks more like dark souls. Elden ring is too vibrant, not depressive enought, even the overworld music sounds too happy. Demons souls artdirection is more dark-souls-like and depressive.
Showcasing Elden Rings graphics only on the starting open world area in the sunny weather. Truly a genius, did everything to make Elden Rings graphics look bad... If you compare the graphics you need to find comparable shots. Elden Ring has castles too and there it looks fantastic. Oh sorry, to see that you actually need to PLAY the game, and not just to enter it to record 10 minutes of footage.

Looking at this comparison, they actually look almost comparable. But having played both games the difference in visual fidelity is huge. The tree canopies are 2d ffs XD. But I think what does it for me mostly is the framerate. Demon´s Souls is a pretty much flawless 60 fps, while the ps5 version of Elden Ring stutters constantly.

First of all there are barely any games of this caliber from that time. I would even say no game from that time that is this huge and densely packed. And even if it was really like an older title what's wrong with that?
@@valentinvas6454 Nothing wrong with that, it's just pointing how it didn't require my needs, so if anybody from here had same wide monitor avoid it as it was an unpleasant experience from my point of view
Well, all of fromsoft games always focus on gameplay. Dark souls, demon souls (ps3), bloodborne, sekiro, armored core. They always focus on gameplay first, story second, and graphic third (more like art direction than graphic). The last is technical stability. Like, their PC port is troublesome.
If you want to play games with focus on graphic, try unreal engine 5 titles or demo.
Refund?
@@sulista4855 Nope, waiting for the game to get an update/mod hopefully in a few days otherwise probably yes it just breaks the immersion for me
Demons souls spoils you. When I first got into elden ring the low graphics floored me. And it felt so empty with no 3D sound and haptic feedback
It's been two years since Elden Ring came out, seems like so many things have been improved in Elden Ring on console version. Apart from Ray Tracing mode, Elden Ring is a pure masterclass in every aspect. Ray tracing adds too much in terms of graphics but unfortunately it just works on some areas, but for instance in Limgrave, everything turns into a soup.
Elden Ring's art style and design make it look next gen, but there are a lot of compromises like pop in, longer loading times and it barely keeps up the 60fps, they're using an updated version of their old engine and it makes it look like a glorified ps4 game. Demon's Souls runs perfectly, steady 60fps, looks great, loads quick, real next gen experience, its just missing that From Software touch that Elden Ring has.
eh Demon souls is a From Software Game ?
@@nanofcb3024 so? this isn't comparing elden ring to FS's demon's souls, this is the remake, which was done by a different studio
@@Wakshak321 I know but it's the exact same game just with a new engine, so the world aesthetic and design is extremely faithful (almost to a fault imho) to the original from software game on ps3. That's why I'm surprised you said it lacks the From software touch since it's the exact same design and artistic vision that from had just with a better graphical engine and hardware obviously.
@@nanofcb3024 Its not the exact same game, the animations look different, the graphics are less washed out without that blueish filter, the colors in the remake are warmer, less "grim", the bosses and npcs, even the enemies look somewhat different, in a way that another studio can't replicate. Its all based on the original game with pretty much all locations, enemy placement etc being the same, but its the little things that its missing from the original that FS puts in their games, even Elden Ring, which the remake of DS doesn't have. Its still a good game like the original, for different reasons, but you can't possibly say its "the same just better"
@@Wakshak321 The Demon's Souls remake has different filters you can apply to the game. Sounds like you never played it.
Elden Ring echoes a problem I've been noticing for the past couple of years now.
As new graphics cards come out, more companies become lazy and don't optimize their games because they expect everyone to have overpriced graphics cards and they expect overpriced graphics cards to run anything they throw at them.
Video game companies have started to rely on us spending more money to run the game better, than actually making their game run better.
I said this when DLSS came out. Shit optimization? Slap some dlss on it, look at Dying Light 2.
@@Minecarftable exactly people would wonder why I argued against dlss so much when it came out, it's because of shit like this, bandaids don't heal wounds they just cover them up
Haha PC Master Race!
Yet you still pay. Lmao.
@@jackjax7921 not anymore, from now on I'm not buying anything at release, I'll just wait 6 months - a year later when the game is either fixed or half price
We really need a Demon souls like graphics mod for Elden ring or a Reshade preset. This would give Elden Ring more atmospheric immersion.
beside the graphics, demon's souls has awesome sound design
Elden Ring looks cartoonish and less detail hasn't got good lighting compared to Demons Souls which looks so much better but how does the game play held up between the two. I have seen reviews that Elden Ring stutters a lot on pc and has some issues unless that's all been fixed and patched out. Shame that Demons Soles isn't out for pc that would of looked even better
Impossible to compare. Two completely different games. It's like comparing an open world game to the detail of Detroit Become Human.
What? No way?!? Elden Ring is an open world and Demon's Souls isn't?!?! Who told you that?!? You'd have to be a genius to know that one. Thanks Captain obvious, we really needed your completely obvious insight.
@@bigdaddynero Man it must suck to be a virgin in your 30s
Wish elden ring could look more like demon soul especially the magic spell sound. So awesome
