LOL, it is still a tutorial of a huge open world game with many different enemies at varying levels. Everyone who has had extensive hands-on has made it a point to say that the game is by no means easy and will punish you if you venture off too far and come across enemies that out level you. Not to mention that you will often find that you will have to retreat and level up more just to progress period. But if you want to go ahead and write the difficulty of the game off based on the tutorial in the demo, then that is your right, I guess. As I said, it will not be for everyone.
I didn't find the framerate to be a hindrance at all. During combat it was fine and it never got close to Blighttown
I really liked the demo! Made my characters as well, a scrappy young Wander (Shadow of the Colossus) type and a fat bearded mage. Looking forward to using them next month!
Was it the OXM preview where the guy basically broke it down straight up like "If you go into the forest at night unprepared - You die. If you leave the city without preparing before hand you'll die. If you take on something that's a higher level than you without tact and skill... you're dead."
It won't be demon's souls but what is? I'm hoping that after some good quality time with the full game we come to find that becoming great in DD is the same type of path as really mastering DMC is... albiet a little more strategy and tactics and a little less reflex and muscle memory.
dark souls. demons souls is a walk in the park in comparison
LoL Demon's almost made me brake my first video game controller ever... i'm just not going there. Most likely burn down my house.
I could not be more pleased with it. It is basically everything I have been salivating over in gameplay footage, only I was in control this time... and it runs great on the PS3.
While it will not be winning any graphics awards, I still love the look of the game. The lighting and detail on the monsters especially stands out. How about the sun shining down as the Griffin swoops down in front of it? Scenes like that will have me pausing to make use of the screenshot feature constantly. The game is going to be amazing.
So sad,
I literally got to play the demo for 2 minutes before I had to head out to work =(

Demo players - does it have the black borders top and bottom?
i played 20 hours of dark souls and got to one part that pissed me off so badly that i did not come back to the game for over 5 months. demons souls was hard but i felt like there were just enough crumbs the developers gave you to make it fair. there is shit i came across in dark souls that is not fair at all and it pisses me off even thinking about it now
Really nice preview: http://www.destructoid.com/preview-dragon-s-dogma-226258.phtml
Dafukk?! DMC is mindless now?It's fast but not floaty, and there's plenty of strategy required, so it's not like you're doing mindless Devil May Cry-style slashing.
I don't think his explanation makes any sense, but thanks for pointing it out.No it's not, just read the comments and the author addresses that line.
Microsoft is set to release its Red, Blue and Silver "chrome" Xbox 360 controllers in Japan May 24.
They'll retail for about $70 each and they look pretty sharp. But you knew most of this already.
New to the equation is that, in Japan, each of the wireless controllers will include a code for eight special quests in Dragon's Dogma, which is becomes available to Japanese audiences on the same day.
Given the Xbox 360's lack of popularity in that part of the world, incentivizing the chromed-out controllers seems like a smart move.
Dragon's Dogma will also be available for PS3. The RPG releases in North America May 22, three days later in Europe.

Apologies if this has already been posted -

Seriously getting sick and tired of shit like this. It's bad enough that certain retailers have exlcusive armour/weapons/characters/whatever in various games nowadays, but now they're bundling "eight special quests" in with a controller?!
I know this is in Japan obviously, but how long before this type of stuff is the norm in other territories?
dark souls. demons souls is a walk in the park in comparison
any PS3/360 comparison videos (for the framerate and image quality) yet ?
Not sure if they are the same quests but there were suppose to be some 8 quests thing that's time exclusive on the 360, so it could just be that, probably means you just get it for free with the controller
I didn't even notice the letterboxing.
I assume this is done to free up resources right?
Oh damn, forgot the demo was out! Is there a PS3 vs 360 consensus yet?
