This game and Uncharted 3 are what keep my faith up in the gaming industry. In-game graphics that look better than most FMVs and still games that let you play every epic sequence. Production value and staying true to ideals - that's what's gonna keep the blockbuster games in business in a world gravitating towards an appstore format. (I would include The Last Guardian but nothing was shown on Gamescom, surprise surprise) | ||

The text were comments from viewers, some of which were quite amusing :-p A lot of people requesting a parry display, which the girl managed twice. I couldn't catch all of the dialogue because it was kind of chaotic, but they did say that it should take roughly 60 hours to "clear" the game, and up to 100 to go through it completely (probably meaning doing all the extra things, getting trophies etc.), though with online play that can obviously add a fair bit if you're into it. Apart from that, there wasn't too much new info that I caught, though they do make it to a boss area in the second video, which you may actually want to avoid if you don't want to be spoiled :-p The girl obviously isn't an experienced Demon's Souls player or anything, so a lot of the gameplay is just her puttering around. (Incidentally, the girl here was born a man, suffered from gender identity disorder, and had a sex change operation -- not really relevant, but some of the youtube comments were saying she's a man, so I looked it up. And please be forgiving of her voice -- it's Japan, that's just how a lot of women talk over here -.-) Really looking forward to this, it comes out next week Thursday here. In anticipation I started playing Demon's Souls again, though, and I'm kind of in the middle of things, so not sure if I'll get it right away. | ||

So awesome lol.  http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=31142213&postcount=1631 | ||

I've played about five hours so far, and yeah... After you play through Demon's Souls and know what you're doing, it starts to feel really easy and you think you're pretty badass, but playing Dark Souls from the start, knowing almost nothing going in, it's pretty brutal -.- I've already had several cursing-loudly-at-the-TV moments, and of course plenty of deaths. The open world is pretty interesting and definitely adds some difficulty imo. Just exploring, looking for where I can go to next, I've come across treasures / items, NPCs, paths that lead off to places I don't know if I should go to yet or not, strong enemies that I barely managed to kill, and strong enemies that just absolutely destroy me, repeatedly and mercilessly >.> Want to keep playing, but it's time to sleep -.- | ||

I've been trying not to read much about the game so im kind of in the dark on the basics. Yup, that's the gist of it. Each time you use a bonfire though all the enemies respawn from what I hear. Dormer, does the game need an install? I also read that there's been some glitchiness, especially in one case where the game seems to randomly freeze. Have you experienced any of that? | ||

Having watched quite a few hours of streaming, there were glitches ranging from monsters disappearing (the streamer shot a dragon, it went to fly off and probably due to the area not being loaded, just disappeared/died) to freezing up every hour or so. | ||
