    I just bought Dark Souls Remastered, and as a newbie, the extremely heavy Companion Guide to go with it. I put it on my bookshelf, but it wasn't seated properly, so it fell off and missed my head by millimeters on the way to the floor. I know it says 'Prepare to Die' on the blurb, but I didn't think Dark Souls was so hardcore it actually tried to kill you in real life.

It's challenging but if you stick to it, it'll give you a sense of accomplishment like no other.

      @JohnXina97 6 років тому +21

      Even though this is meant in a sarcastic way... this is really a bad remaster when it comes to PC.
      Mostly a graphical update and some slight conveniences.
      60 fps? We had that before without paying 40 bucks for an update.
      They released the game with a 30 fps cap which modders fixed in less than 24 hours after release and the problems that were back then like chain backstabbing...are still there. Instead of giving small conveniences like an extra bonfire and that u can now change covenants at them, they should've addressed serious issues that the game had back that they never fixed in the original one. Zero updates on the original one and I wouldn't be suprised if it was the same with this one.
      Hell they don't even give previous owners of the original one the remastered for free.
      I mean for example... one of the dev studios that loves to suck their fans dry of money. Bethesda... even gave the remastered version for free to players who owned the original Skyrim.
      It's a cashgrab and nothing else than a slight graphic update and some minor changes disguised as a remastered which addresed issues that should've been fixed in the original one with a few updates.

      I love Dark Souls because you can block attacks with your shield, especially if you're able to use Havel's Greatshield by getting Strength up to 50. In Bloodborne you don't have a shield, so the only way to avoid damage is to either become a god at dodging, or replenish your health by hitting enemies before it disappears for good.

      Atlus only published Demon's Souls outside of Japan. The rights to the IP and game is with Sony Japan Studios (aka Sony Computer Entertainment) and From Software the two teams that developed the game, that also developed Bloodborne. If anything it's a mixed call from Sony and From Software to get a Remaster or Remake in the works.

    I've been playing since the first Dark Souls, loved it so much I went played Demon Souls, and now I've played every game in the series. For those of you new to the series, I highly recommend you buy this game. Dark Souls 3 makes so many nods to the 1st game that you likely wouldn't have understood/caught them unless you had another player tell you. It is before a time where you could stand from one bonefire, and see the next, so be prepared for more of a challenge. Mostly, get your diddly hole ready for Dragon Slayer Ornstein and Executioner Smough. I have still have nightmares about the first time I did that fight.

It also looks like the fire in Remastered actually looks like fire as opposed to the ugly streaks on neon orange in the 360 version.

    People say these games are hard. But really once you get use to how the game works and figure out your build and what not it really isn´t... Not saying this is a cakewalk of a game but it´s not gonna make you break controllers or what not. All you have to do is figure out what build you want and get use to dying. 9/10 times when you face a new boss you're gonna die. But if you accept that and make sure you can't lose a ton of souls it's just trail and error and not harder that most NES games!

I haven't beat it yet but I think I'm near the end (I have 3/4 of the lord souls to put into the vessel right now).

    I tried playing Bloodborne and after a couple hours and actually making some progress, I realize it wasn't my type of game/mechanic systems. I knew what I was getting into after following a lot of people that posted DS2 & DS3 videos and BB looked so cool. That said, I have watched play troughs of both games and can still respect the game series for what it is as a viewer and not a player.

    This remaster is significantly darker in most areas.
    Also there's a new bonfire added in the Catacombs next to the blacksmith.

    To everybody flipping out in the comments because of what or what not the remaster did, nobody gives a damn. You are not going to change anything about it, the console players who want to play it will. (I am one) so rather than trying to make the community seem even more toxic, just keep your opinion to yourself and don't criticize others. P.S sorry for the rant

      Bfjf Bu The Switch version may not look as good. But I can still die on the go. Or just play normally on the tv. But who does that?
