@BabyMetalMemes I literally did the same, then sold the playstation afterwards... the pain of being a PC player and having to buy a console just to play FromSoft games... I crie
Just beat the game after dying hundreds of times. The best RPG i've played in a long time and its my first Souls experience. I highly recommend it!! Very frustrating at first but satisfying af when you get the hang of it
I haven't ever played any souls like game but i enjoyed finishing god of war 4 in give me god of war difficulty would you recommend this game to he because i love how it looks
I just downloaded the game last night, and as a veteran of the souls games having NEVER even played the original demons souls that started it all. I have to say this game is beautiful, but the COMBAT, the combat is easily the most weighty and you can really feel the impact of your swings. The backstabs and riposte animations are absolutely brutal and I've only beat the Tower Knight at this point and made it though a bit of Smith town I think it's called, but holy shit I'm so in love and just thankful I have the opportunity to play a somewhat OG souls game that spawned all the other ones we love today.
The combats slow as snails and the healing takes 3 business days, the second you fall on the ground your character decides he can't move or roll even with Light weight
Damn, they seriously upgraded the visuals. I never played the original, only watched some gameplay here and there but I've got to say that this may be the most visually appealing Dark Medieval Fantasy game I've seen, the insane amount of detail, just damn.
@@LiterallyAM it is not the games it is the super toxic fan base. I love Souls Games for what they are. But I am not gonna put them above the rest of the games. There are a lot of better games but Souls game have a very different flavor altogether
"Soul of the mind, key to life's ether. Soul of the lost, withdrawn from its vessel. Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended. So the world might be mended."
Does everyone remember when Demon soul’s first came out? I remember just hearing about this little Japanese RPG that doesn’t look great but apparently the few that have tried it say it’s got some really cool ideas and it’s HARD. Now that same game is probably the most anticipated game to lunch with PS5! Selling consoles. Mind blowing.
Peopel I knew Fromsofts earlier titles and it still baffles me that their horrific controls schemes and clunky gameplay actually gave birth to a genre I really live. I mean Bloodbourne and DS3 control very well (almost too well) but DS and DS both are quite slow and clunky making the challenge very interesting and not all about speed
When I picked demons souls I literally was in a GS looking for something to play and had no idea what it was. I looked up on my phone the reviews it had a solid 8 so I said why not. Little did I know this would begin my love for the series and I couldn't believe no one was talking about it. Such a fantastic game only out done by dark souls.
@@mdogmatt5793 The use of qoutes kinda made it seem like you were saying it mockingly, kinda misread what you said then. But he does acknowledge the lore in the video too. I think the criticism is more like "the story itself is pretty thin, but hey, there's more to it if you go looking." Personally I don't really think that's a problem but I get the idea.
I’m playing dark souls remastered right now. It’s my first souls game. I couldn’t get a hold of a ps5. Really enjoying the game, can’t wait to play the rest of the souls titles
Step one: Be able to actually order a PS5. Seriously though, congrats to those that were able to. Edit: I am not congratulating the horrible scalpers!! 🤬
At least for Best Buy's website, no matter how much someone wants to claim "Bots got them" it was all the determination of people willing to spend a few hours constantly hitting that "Checkout" Button.
Be sure to play it using the 60fps performance mode (the default mode) like the devs suggested in their latest interview with Digital Foundry. There are no noticeable graphical differences between the two modes whatsoever, and the 60fps just feels so good and according to the devs the 60fps mode has been their main focus during the development. All the streamers I've watched have also agreed that it's the best way to play the game.
@@Tibovl have one. Been there done that. Still rather have the powerful series x to play at night on my comfy bed, and 65 inch 4k tv, than sitting at my desk. My pc is only used for pc only games
Tbh I think Bluepoint *does* use the combat data from the original, *but* has altered most animations to actually fit those timing better. That's why it feels much more snappy. A great touch if you'd ask me!

Keep doing this these actual full reviews are great and something some of us really turn to if we're thinking of putting our money towards a game.
It’s I incredible I’ve been playing it all day, the only souls game I haven’t played before. You should definitely play in performance mode btw cinematic mode is pretty bad.
@@nutterbutterman8609 Only one I haven’t played too. And I’m definitely using performance mode. But either way, after playing Bloodborne with that stuttery 30 FPS, I could handle either mode. Lol
The game feels easier because it’s at 60fps, it makes your reactions and sword swings more responsive and smooth so that clunkiness you feel is still kinda there in the 30fps mode
@@ZombieDude0001 they sped up personal attack animations to look even smoother but barely touched most AI making the game easier. Its the only flaw in my eyes and its a minor one to me at least.
@@Flourikum i mean, its kinda like they put the main character of DS3 into a DS1 area, while maintaining the speed of DS3. You can imagine that would make things much easier. Not a world ending problem, just questionable.
@@justanothercommentercarryo8367 that is absolutely untrue. It feels just like a demons Souls character in demons souls. They did not touch the enemy or boss AI, and the movement/run speed/roll is exactly as the original. Feels nowhere near as fast a DS3 at all
I've played pretty much all of the souls games except for the original Demon's Souls. I gotta say I am loving this game! Love the changes Bluepoint has made. I still die plenty, get frustrated, but more importantly still get the thrill when overcoming something particularly challenging. Am having a great time with this game so far!
Demon's Souls: TRAPS!!! Darks Souls: Play the entire game thinking eventually some trap is going to get sprung. Nope, MIMICS! Bloodbourne: Play the entire game attacking every chest just in case there was a mimic.
And attacking suspicious looking walls in search for illusory walls. And when you get used to the fact they're not in the game... turns out they exist but only in a specific part of the Chalice Dungeons.
Playstation direct will have more up tomorrow. Probably around noon. They use queueing and require acct sign in. So no bots. No crashing site. It works well. I was able to get one for myself and one as a gift for my brother. While at work! On my mobile phone! So it really is a great way to get one.
This is my first souls like game, I’ve never played any of the dark souls or anything, I am very glad this is my first step into this genre, what an amazing remake this is!
@@kingambrosius9125 give me as much as possible, i had only used the guide to help guide me where to go, everything else is just me wandering. The guide did give some tips that where helpful at the beginning and my brother had caught up in a week, where it took me 3 months to get to and he even passed me, that little shit
yeap, that's me... LMAO... I don't hate the idea of it. I think the world tendency was an interesting concept but it was also a pain in the ass. It'll also be a major pain in the ass for anyone new to the series.
I thought the World Tendency system was online based, but still found some kind of equilibrium between worlds; as one world gets harder, another gets easier.
Playing it right now - an absolute masterpiece and must have in your ludothèque. Even after completing bloodborne, DS3 and the likes. How amazing it is to see the FromSoftware formula was already all in there from the beginning, genius!
i Looove armored core. it was the first game i played, beat, and was able to bring my character over to the next game, and the again to the next generation console.
When this first released it absolutely destroyed me...put me into demolish controller mode more than once. Now after revisiting it after playing every souls and souls like game there is its so insanely easy. BUT, I'm loving every second of it. This remake is absolutely stunning!
I can't imagine how huge the size of games will be in the long future, I'm very lucky to live in this time to witness this games , incredible technology we have
Got my PS5 last month and I've been playing this game since then. Done with my 7th playthrough and I still want to go. Souls games are difficult and frustring but I am addicted to it. I haven't even opened the other 3 games I bought.
Having played and owning all of the souls games since the original demon souls, I have to say it looks really good. They did an amazing job on the graphic overall
@@thunderbuns6811 I believe he ment it in the way everyone else means it, you know how you can go through the game with out even knowing why unless you look hard enough. I mean he states that as well. Of course I'm not sure how much Falcon is into these type of games since he usually does JRPG games.
@@dsjgfxxkhrx4050 not in the traditional anime sense but yeah you're correct lol. I've only ever seen jake do any of the souls games so that where my thought process lays.
Recently started. First Souls-like game for me. Difficult and enjoyable! The forced repetitiveness results in gradually improving and flowing. A special experience!
My Friend: You should play this "Demon's Souls" Me: (Pops it in) My Friend: You can skip the intro, it's just like Grandpa is awake, and you need to make him go sleepy again. Me: Okay.
Demon's Soul is yet another reminder of the heinous practices mediocre companies are allowed to get away with CTRL V .darksouls rinse and repeat formulaic repetitive garbage for people who falsely believe there hardcore gamers but would never compare to someone of refined stature as myself
This is the main game shown off that made me excited about the power of the new consoles. No other game looked particularly impressive until they showed this off
Every Souls Game is a Souls-like, because Souls-like is the very genre they generated. I think you confused the term with Souls-borne games which is only used for Souls-likes specifically made by FromSoftware (Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Sekiro, Elden Ring).
He was using "souls-like" as a description for the genre, not just this specific game. Yes this is a souls game, but it is also a part of the "souls-like" genre when you are talking about games like these.
I have my copy of Demon's Souls in hand. My PS5 will be here on Tuesday and I can say that this game is indeed a system seller. If it wasn't for Demon's Souls being announced as a launch title I would have held off on buying the PS5.
@@KingofScrapMetal I think he’s getting at the point that the game was actually remade from the ground up, despite it being the same exact game. Cuz a lot of remasters nowadays are lazy
I am a Souls veteran. Started with Demon Souls, and i was hooked. Also a big Bloodborne and Sekiro fan It looks fantastic, but like you said, i think it will be easy for the veterans. I know this game inside out. When i ever get a ps5 i will def play it.
The most fun combat system I ever played was in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Combine that with the dark aesthetics of Demon's Souls, and it'd be a 10/10.
This game is really awesome! The graphics, art work and overall mood are gorgeous and gameplay is super fun. The difficulty is well balanced between enemies and bosses. It's a hard game, just like the other Souls games. But it's more strategic and less mechanical. Bosses are puzzles rather than fights where you have to study every move of your enemy
Speaking as someone who lacks gaming SKILZ I bought this game and quickly developed stomach ulcers. Nausea, dizziness, sweating, WHAT FUN!! I now pay attention when a game gets the "hard" label.
Finally was able to order a PS5 now I'm just waiting for it to be delivered and I can't wait dude lol. Supposed to get mine sometime later this week probably Friday and it can not come soon enough for me xD. Got my copy of demons souls remake waiting in my room ready to go soon as the PS5 arrives ^_^!
Well, there were many games with similar fighting mechanics, even Ocarina of Time had very similar targeting system etc, but I really think noone knows nowadays what souls-like stands for - most people use it for difficulty and dying all the time, so Contra was the first souls-like in some people eyes lol
Love your channel! Been watching for sometime now, and after hearing Falcon speak so highly of the Souls games, I gave souls games I hated a second try. Loving DS! Thanks for the great work!
Hooked up my ps5 and downloaded the game. 8bhours later im halfway through my second playthrough. Funny hou 10 years later i still remember every enemy spawn/weakness....
I’m not going to call it a system seller. Demon’s Souls sold me be you looks amazing and I had to give it a try. Bought a PS5 already so that felt like I had to play
I'm currently playing the original through the RPCS3 emulator, honestly there are some parts of the original that's still better than the remake: NPC's, music, certain sound design, certain enemy designs (like the vanguard or fat official). Aesthetically imo, the original holds true to itself compared to what the remake tries to achieve. I also wish the original still available to play instead of being replaced by a remake. :/
Bought this at launch, but no ps5 till may 18 2023, finally after 3 years looking at this game I finally get to play it. Have delux version on ps3, that guide book spine is worn out for how long I played it, then disc drive crapped out on ps3, so bought digital version, remake looks amazing even on my first Gen smart TV, Samsung is amazing btw. I have 3 versions of this game and probably will buy the next one too lol
finally someone that likes these games while admitting that the stories aren´t a big deal, i can´t stand those fanboys that´ll tell ya "these games have the best stories, once you get it" ugh
dude its not fanboys its hard core fans. We listen to the story because we love the games and like to see the lore. If you skip the story you are skiping a whole experience in its self.
From Software concoct the most pointless and shitty stories just so they have something to base their game on and then fanboys who have apparently never seen, heard or read a good story in their entire lives pretend like it's life changing.
i did play original and i'm actually agree when you become Pre render story addict at the time. i know there are lore and deep story with in item but back in the day compare to FF series like FFX even FFXii or Ninokuni, White Knight story,MGS4 or FFXiii which story kind of suck.... i'm expect more cut scene and i didnt get it even finish the game i still dont get it and feel "story kind of thin"..... but i like the game and like it more than FFXiii at the time. make me feel great that i get PS3 i remember when fought the king in stage 1 and most fun boss fight that i never get before and become boss at stage 3 which make people have a bad day or experience 5 difference field of setting... in it self this game make gameplay experience become something and complex system make it even better and for get platinum with many run cause you miss cystal lizard... well good old day.
Played the original, became a rabid fan, obsessed over it for months and was proud to finish it. Is easily the very hardest game I’ve ever played. Makes all subsequent souls titles feel easy by comparison. Will def play it again on PS5 but I’m not in a hurry. I still have hundreds of ps4 titles to catch up on first.
@@Hiro_515 not yet, it’s $90 CDN, although was on sale for $55 recently but I’m too into other games right now so I’ll just keep waiting for it to come down in price.
Finally bagged a ps5 on Friday with demons souls and wow, im a huge souls fan absolutely love every game and played through each one many times, this will be no exception, im very early on but so far it has blown me away. An absolute must have and worth getting a ps5 for this alone
"you know what I'm talking about if you played the original game" "you know what I'm talking about if you played the original game" "you know what I'm talking about if you played the original game" "you know what I'm talking about if you played the original game" "you know what I'm talking about if you played the original game"
Demons Souls was my favorite game from the PS3. It was my most hyped reveal when they did it, even more than HFW, which honestly HZD is my favorite game ever. When I grab a PS5 likely next holiday season, this will be a day one buy for me. I tried to pre order it for the goodies. But the deluxe was digital only and I want the physical. To go with my original. I'm sad though, I've heard the Thomas Dupe Glitch doesn't work anymore and honestly that's a huge bummer. Being able to dupe stuff for Alt Toons really increased the longevity of the game. Without it, I'll likely only make a few toons and move on. Versus the 50+ toons I probably created originally.
Just a quick launch day first look. So far so good! We'll have a 'Before You Buy' video looking at the whole PS5 console up soon.
hi
Can't wait man. Waiting for delivery.
Hey gameranx I was wondering if you're doing a godfall before you buy?

I don't hate the idea of it. I think the world tendency was an interesting concept but it was also a pain in the ass. It'll also be a major pain in the ass for anyone new to the series.

@@princelaharl664 you perish, world gets harder. You succeed world gets easier.
@@SoberRamen nope git gud. Quiting is for quiters my friend.
I thought the World Tendency system was online based, but still found some kind of equilibrium between worlds; as one world gets harder, another gets easier.
Before you buy. The show I watch exclusively after I buy something.
Bruh same 😂😂
Playing it right now - an absolute masterpiece and must have in your ludothèque. Even after completing bloodborne, DS3 and the likes. How amazing it is to see the FromSoftware formula was already all in there from the beginning, genius!
"I've played these games since 2009 in the original release"
Him playing Demon Souls:
*FAT ROLLS CONSTANTLY* 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Maybe he’s just goated with the fat roll
Jeez
100% what I was thinking
Carrying all that grass is definitely smthn lol
Maybe he was doing a fat roll challenge run lol
Now they gotta remake Armored Core, and King's Field for us ;D
Please let them bring back armored core. I grew up on that series
i Looove armored core. it was the first game i played, beat, and was able to bring my character over to the next game, and the again to the next generation console.
Technically dark souls is kings field
Good to know I'm not the only one who thinks these games need a remake aswell.
YES MORE ARMORED CORE!!!
When this first released it absolutely destroyed me...put me into demolish controller mode more than once. Now after revisiting it after playing every souls and souls like game there is its so insanely easy. BUT, I'm loving every second of it. This remake is absolutely stunning!
Demon souls is amazing, brought me back to my ps3 days. Blue point did a great job.
I can't imagine how huge the size of games will be in the long future,
I'm very lucky to live in this time to witness this games , incredible technology we have
Downloading it as we speak! Hope I’m not too bad 👀
Ur bad
U got ps5😭

Don’t worry after awhile you will be good at it that’s just how these games are.
Just came in the mail. Now if I only can get my hands on a damn PS5.
Same lmao
Yup!
We’ll get one guys, just have no idea when haha.
This reminded me of that meme where Timmy's father yells about the reserved altar for his trophy lmao
Got my PS5 last month and I've been playing this game since then. Done with my 7th playthrough and I still want to go. Souls games are difficult and frustring but I am addicted to it. I haven't even opened the other 3 games I bought.
Never played Demon's Souls before. I'm loving the remake on PS5! Awesome way to start this new generation.
Having played and owning all of the souls games since the original demon souls, I have to say it looks really good. They did an amazing job on the graphic overall
I'VE BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THIS GAME BUT YOU GUYS KNOW YOUR STUFF SO I WILL LISTEN TO U
well clearly they don't know their stuff. they just had the gall to call the story "pretty thin".
@@thunderbuns6811 I believe he ment it in the way everyone else means it, you know how you can go through the game with out even knowing why unless you look hard enough. I mean he states that as well. Of course I'm not sure how much Falcon is into these type of games since he usually does JRPG games.
@@youuruyyeiyueyey5154 but demon souls IS a JRPG
@@dsjgfxxkhrx4050 not in the traditional anime sense but yeah you're correct lol. I've only ever seen jake do any of the souls games so that where my thought process lays.
@@youuruyyeiyueyey5154 heh yeah it's kinda wild
I'm watching this in 144p to not get spoiled too much haha
I unplugged my ps4 and hooked up my switch. Figured might as well play B.O.T.W. again because part 2 will be out before I can get a ps5.
Recently started. First Souls-like game for me. Difficult and enjoyable! The forced repetitiveness results in gradually improving and flowing. A special experience!
Failure is a good teacher
One of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. It's right under legendary in my opinion.
My Friend: You should play this "Demon's Souls"
Me: (Pops it in)
My Friend: You can skip the intro, it's just like Grandpa is awake, and you need to make him go sleepy again.
Me: Okay.
Well, that's a common plot device in most From Software games (specially, in Bloodborne... but in reverse).
Shaman Xeed
Preach
@Shaman Xeed Stop spamming that. Ive seen you write that on other demon souls videos
@Shaman Xeed you literally have no life. This is beyond pathetic and you should seek help especially if you think you're funny
Demon's Soul is yet another reminder of the heinous practices mediocre companies are allowed to get away with CTRL V .darksouls rinse and repeat formulaic repetitive garbage for people who falsely believe there hardcore gamers but would never compare to someone of refined stature as myself
I'm watching this even though I couldn't get a ps5, one day though
Broke a55 bish
Yep they're basically all out of production.
I’m rich as fuck so I bought it from a scalper. Life is so much easier when you’re wealthy. Thanks dad.
I have the money to buy one I just don't wanna pay double to a scalper for it
Buy a handgun and wait for someone to brag about their ps5. Unethical but effective.
This is the main game shown off that made me excited about the power of the new consoles. No other game looked particularly impressive until they showed this off
Srsly tho... Its not even that good graphicly.
I must be getting blind 😑
@@justanimage5012 oh nah...
I played it and the game looks outstanding.
Just picked up Demon’s Souls and so excited to begin my journey 😊⚔️
Souls like? This is literally a Souls game.
“Souls like” is a genre, not a literal description. Like Metroid and Castlevania games are both “metroidvania”. It’s the same concept.
Every Souls Game is a Souls-like, because Souls-like is the very genre they generated. I think you confused the term with Souls-borne games which is only used for Souls-likes specifically made by FromSoftware (Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Sekiro, Elden Ring).
Not just a souls game , it's the original darksouls.. it gave ideas to all the following games
He was using "souls-like" as a description for the genre, not just this specific game. Yes this is a souls game, but it is also a part of the "souls-like" genre when you are talking about games like these.
I have my copy of Demon's Souls in hand. My PS5 will be here on Tuesday and I can say that this game is indeed a system seller. If it wasn't for Demon's Souls being announced as a launch title I would have held off on buying the PS5.
Buy it! Yes, its a system seller. I bought the ps5 for this game alone - though im a PS guy thru and thru. I love Demon's Souls remake.
Me trying to order a PS5 right now
May the flames guide thee

“A game we’ve all already played”
A lot of people didn’t have ps3 lol
I think he was being sarcastic.
I had a ps3 and I still didn’t play it
I bought an old, cheap PS3 just to play this game.
@@elmaxo1591 Same, wasnt a fan of these games until i got bloodborne. Now i just need to buy this game and ds1
I've already played it on PS3 not gonna pay $70 to play again😂
The graphics are MIND-BLOWING
Last time I was this early, cyberpunk was still in development.
“Buy a PS5 first” *video ends*
That’s pretty much it lol . I’m ready , I got time to spend , I got the money, but the fucking console is sold out :/
What did you say about December 10th? I am a little hard of hearing.
@@Xalocin I feel you dude. It’s so frustrating
Ikr, I really want the game but I don't want to buy a PS5 so RIP.
I've been playing in my ps5 for the past two days but haven't bought any games for it. There are a few out there who want these types of reviews
0:42 it's not an HD remaster, it's a remake.
No, you're wrong. Get over it
@@KingofScrapMetal I think he’s getting at the point that the game was actually remade from the ground up, despite it being the same exact game. Cuz a lot of remasters nowadays are lazy
Stefan Delipoglou lol how is he wrong
I am a Souls veteran. Started with Demon Souls, and i was hooked. Also a big Bloodborne and Sekiro fan It looks fantastic, but like you said, i think it will be easy for the veterans. I know this game inside out.
When i ever get a ps5 i will def play it.
The most fun combat system I ever played was in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Combine that with the dark aesthetics of Demon's Souls, and it'd be a 10/10.
I agree with you. Kingdoms of Amalur combat was oh so satisfying
Really it's just a button masher the combat feels awful in my opinion
Finally managed to get a PS5.
The only Souls game I haven’t played yet! Here we go.
This game is really awesome! The graphics, art work and overall mood are gorgeous and gameplay is super fun. The difficulty is well balanced between enemies and bosses. It's a hard game, just like the other Souls games. But it's more strategic and less mechanical. Bosses are puzzles rather than fights where you have to study every move of your enemy
No smile on Fat Official 😭 I hope the laugh is still there. That’s what really matters.
I guess they can't understand why he laugh so they just remove it.
The smile and the laugh are both present, and when you wear his hat your character laughs and smiles now
@@Krosstic his smile is gone. He looks like a boiled frog. Looks absolutely awful now
*Gotta LOVE that draw-distance around **9:20**!*
Currently playing it. It’s my first of the type. It’s hell. It’s a beautiful looking hell. Probably why i keep coming back to attempt to play it
Hope you play the rest when your done they’re amazing
It's like I'm watching Skyrim with 200+ mods and an enb
If I had a money and a PS5 it would probably be one of the first games that I would install
I’m so excited to play this game I really hope it’s fun
It looks great too
No you dont
Do you got ps5
It’s incredible. You definitely should play it.
its bad, buy a nintendo switch
Speaking as someone who lacks gaming SKILZ I bought this game and quickly developed stomach ulcers. Nausea, dizziness, sweating, WHAT FUN!! I now pay attention when a game gets the "hard" label.
Finally was able to order a PS5 now I'm just waiting for it to be delivered and I can't wait dude lol. Supposed to get mine sometime later this week probably Friday and it can not come soon enough for me xD. Got my copy of demons souls remake waiting in my room ready to go soon as the PS5 arrives ^_^!
I was lucky enough to get a PS5, this is best looking game I have ever played. Perfect showcase for the PS5.
everytime he rolled my heart was crushed by the fat roll
03:59 I’m curious about what he means here? What other **Souls**-like came before demonsouls?
Well, there were many games with similar fighting mechanics, even Ocarina of Time had very similar targeting system etc, but I really think noone knows nowadays what souls-like stands for - most people use it for difficulty and dying all the time, so Contra was the first souls-like in some people eyes lol
Maybe DARK SOULS
@@reign80 Which is the younger brother to Demon Souls. So... no
@@errorx_x1063 lol
I don't want to google, but whats the fromsoft game where you're a samurai-type; futuristic with a lot of motorcycle montages? was literally SO bad
Just bought my ps5 for $380 today. Can't wait to play this. Downloading it now
I don't have a ps5 yet. I want to buy one this year but I REAAAAALLY want to play this game. I'm so excited.
The contrast between the old looking UI and the graphics messes with my head.
Why? The UI and HUD are all new, that's not how the originals were
@@JTisOneCrazyMan20 it just doesn't look fancy dude
@@hotamadeus2726 I agree, I think the HUD like shit lol. I thought you meant that you thought the UI was old as in it was the UI of the original game
@@JTisOneCrazyMan20 all good

@Shaman Xeed bro just play the fucking video games there's nothing to it other than that
Love your channel! Been watching for sometime now, and after hearing Falcon speak so highly of the Souls games, I gave souls games I hated a second try. Loving DS! Thanks for the great work!
Hooked up my ps5 and downloaded the game. 8bhours later im halfway through my second playthrough. Funny hou 10 years later i still remember every enemy spawn/weakness....
This sets the standard for remakes. I hope other developers pay attention.
Agree it’s incredible
IF I get a ps5 (that's a joke about ps5 inventory), those fluent/different weapon animations and updated graphics will take some getting used to. lol
You know i was kind of thinking the same thing. Taking it as a different game though should smooth that transition
I’m not going to call it a system seller. Demon’s Souls sold me be you looks amazing and I had to give it a try. Bought a PS5 already so that felt like I had to play
That’s why miles morales is also a launch title.
@@jaahman0098 exactly and I bought that game too. Along with sackboy cuz that looked like fun
@@keith1314 yeah can’t wait to pick up sackboy
I tried playing BloodBourne and i was so bad at it I didn’t get too far but I think I’m going to give this a shot and try this genre one more time.
@@EJD339 good luck
I'm currently playing the original through the RPCS3 emulator, honestly there are some parts of the original that's still better than the remake: NPC's, music, certain sound design, certain enemy designs (like the vanguard or fat official). Aesthetically imo, the original holds true to itself compared to what the remake tries to achieve.
I also wish the original still available to play instead of being replaced by a remake. :/
Bought this at launch, but no ps5 till may 18 2023, finally after 3 years looking at this game I finally get to play it. Have delux version on ps3, that guide book spine is worn out for how long I played it, then disc drive crapped out on ps3, so bought digital version, remake looks amazing even on my first Gen smart TV, Samsung is amazing btw. I have 3 versions of this game and probably will buy the next one too lol
Sweet man, you’re a true fan of Demon’s Souls, that deluxe version looked amazing 👍
finally someone that likes these games while admitting that the stories aren´t a big deal, i can´t stand those fanboys that´ll tell ya "these games have the best stories, once you get it" ugh
dude its not fanboys its hard core fans. We listen to the story because we love the games and like to see the lore. If you skip the story you are skiping a whole experience in its self.
From Software concoct the most pointless and shitty stories just so they have something to base their game on and then fanboys who have apparently never seen, heard or read a good story in their entire lives pretend like it's life changing.
"The story's pretty thin," Me: Angery.
i did play original and i'm actually agree when you become Pre render story addict at the time. i know there are lore and deep story with in item but back in the day compare to FF series like FFX even FFXii or Ninokuni, White Knight story,MGS4 or FFXiii which story kind of suck.... i'm expect more cut scene and i didnt get it even finish the game i still dont get it and feel "story kind of thin"..... but i like the game and like it more than FFXiii at the time. make me feel great that i get PS3
i remember when fought the king in stage 1 and most fun boss fight that i never get before and become boss at stage 3 which make people have a bad day or experience 5 difference field of setting... in it self this game make gameplay experience become something and complex system make it even better and for get platinum with many run cause you miss cystal lizard... well good old day.
Played the original, became a rabid fan, obsessed over it for months and was proud to finish it. Is easily the very hardest game I’ve ever played. Makes all subsequent souls titles feel easy by comparison. Will def play it again on PS5 but I’m not in a hurry. I still have hundreds of ps4 titles to catch up on first.
Well, did you play it?
@@Hiro_515 not yet, it’s $90 CDN, although was on sale for $55 recently but I’m too into other games right now so I’ll just keep waiting for it to come down in price.
Picked up my pre order yesterday and have been loving it! First souls I have played other then Sekiro!
Finally bagged a ps5 on Friday with demons souls and wow, im a huge souls fan absolutely love every game and played through each one many times, this will be no exception, im very early on but so far it has blown me away. An absolute must have and worth getting a ps5 for this alone
This is the best game i ve ever played. my Number 1 off alltime

@@tristenbell6929 is it short?
@👁 not that I've seen
This is the first generation of hardware that has me stunned at the visuals.
Ryse son of rome stunned everyone at launch, only for the graphics of course
Demons Souls was my favorite game from the PS3. It was my most hyped reveal when they did it, even more than HFW, which honestly HZD is my favorite game ever. When I grab a PS5 likely next holiday season, this will be a day one buy for me. I tried to pre order it for the goodies. But the deluxe was digital only and I want the physical. To go with my original.
I'm sad though, I've heard the Thomas Dupe Glitch doesn't work anymore and honestly that's a huge bummer. Being able to dupe stuff for Alt Toons really increased the longevity of the game. Without it, I'll likely only make a few toons and move on. Versus the 50+ toons I probably created originally.
