I also never played it, I came to PS3 for MGS4 and I was more casually playing games at the time.
I think a lot of PlayStation exclusives were not taken as seriously as they are now, back then.
Now I look back and regret not playing things like Folklore, Mod Nation, MAG and this.....
I think a lot of people missed some of the best games Sony ever made.
I missed the entire Resistance series for god sake and I love Insomniac....

Start as a Royal and soul arrow your way through your first playthrough, in that case.This game looks gorgeous, from what I've heard the difficulty is up there with ds? Worried about getting frustrated

After the tutorial and first level, Demon's Souls has multiple paths for continuation. It's great because if one way is proving troublesome, there are other options which may be more doable. The first time I played I met a boss I couldn't get past, but after going through the other worlds I was able to level up, gain more familiarity with the mechanics, and go back and beat that boss.

I think some people are confusing this remake with a remaster. This game has been built from the ground up by Bluepoint on PS5 using their own engine/code. They took Demon Souls as the template and built this game, trying to keep true to the original level design/story/bosses etc. They have said to expect plenty of QOL changes and I wouldn't be surprised if they have added/changed some stuff also.
This will show how good Bluepoint is as a games developer, as it will be effectively their own built game.
I completed DS on PS3 and I'm a big souls fan so Ill be getting this day1.

Glad I could help. A great game is a great game. That game must be out of this world in the value/$ chart.
You can't go wrong with that line of thought. Enjoy the ride.

In a way yeah. Look there is games like Horizons 2 and the new God of War that will be coming to PS4 too. Very curious why DeS didnt get that too.They want to milk us Souls fan to get a PS5!

Gamers lie to themselves all the time, it's always about the visuals. The could've showed the craziest bridge action scene in Miles Morales, but the talk of the show will be Demon's Souls because it looked amazing graphically. It was my favorite part of the showcase, but I'm an admitted graphics whore

I actually dislike how Darksiders the new DS looks.

Eh, they’re staying true to the From software gameloop, that’s what matters.

Better load times, and visuals
We already know the base is one of the best games ever, and I haven't replayed it in years so yeah its eye candy with a brain
The same way I bought a gamecube for Resident Evil Remake, didn't regret that either

Aside from the insane visuals I see no reason to go back
I'm past that stage in my gaming career where I want to punish myself
There's no way I'm paying $500 plus to get my ass handed to me and let the game collect dust for months before returning
But just thinking of how the Man Eater battle looks?!
If I can secure a PS5 I'll get it but definitely won't get this at launch

A death + load screen could take anywhere from 15-30 seconds in the PS3 version, though it does make me wonder how they'll present the "Item descriptions" to the player if the game loads in under a second...
Demon's Souls never had "item descriptions" during the loading screens, just pictures of NPCs and their names/titles.

Good catch. I guess it wouldn't be so bad if those were left out.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
You haven't gotten better at playing it (and the rest of the series and like-minded games) since first starting it in 2009? Dang. Also, it's a remake.

Nah, I realized these games are not for me. Although for some reason I tried again with Dark Souls, same result, put some hours in, finally realize shit just is not fun, trade in game. I learned my lesson.

So you think it will only sell like 1.5 million? If that 70% is folks who had the original, they weren't many. A huge waste of money for Sony, lol (nah, it'll do better, duh, the Souls games have gotten way more popular since, it will ride on their coat tails even if it's not as good, and if it is, even better).

It'll sell better than it's 2009 launch simply because it's a launch title and it looks amazing. Less competition

Different kettle of badgers. Remasters and remakes have very little in common. Blueprint could still do a DS remake, but then we’ve all bloody played it, so a bit pointless.

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
Have they given any details? Is there any added content?

If you can get hold of Bloodborne, try that. It’s the gateway drug to the Souls games. Faster, better paced, and more accessible. It gets you accustomed to that sweet, sweet gameplay loop at a better rate. An awful lot of people couldn’t stand Dark Souls when they first tried it, but went back after Bloodborne and loved it.

No indication so far. The sixth arch stone is still broken.

My question is, do you think Elden Ring will look this good?? It would be weird if a remaster released before a new IP from the original studio looked better, but if Elden Ring is targeting the 8th gen still it's possible. Maybe they should just get this porting house to fix up From Software titles in general...Bloodborne with this treatment would be amazing, fix that damn frame pacing finally.

From tech perspective probably not, since Elden Ring is going to be cross gen game but man it’s going have killer art direction.
Just like Atlus games, I don’t go in to FROM for high tech graphics.

Well, iv wrote an example, like what Capcom did with Resident Evil 1 and 2. The core game is still there, but new content was added. Its a bit hard to understand the meaning of Remake vs Remastered today tbh, this is where its a bit confusing with DeS remake, is it just the QoL experiment that was tweaked? So far nobody know, but its just confusing calling it a remake.

The same benefit of getting any other launch title: it showcases some of the advancements of the console.

It will look like a PS3 game in comparison to this... Demon's looks like From's cinematic trailers.

I mean, as someone who still has a PS3 hooked up with my other consoles (and I own the original game)... I'm really looking forward to this. I do think, however, it's a sad state of affairs when the most exciting game at launch for PS5 is a remake of an 11 year old game. Can't wait to play this remake at some point, but yeah this is a pretty underwhelming start to the gen to say the least.

Yes it looked very detailed. Most next gen.

And then there's FF&: Remake which is a whole new game

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
The one thing I didn't like of the gameplay was the weightless feel of the combat. Maybe they fix that or who knows, perhaps it feels different while playing.
The game looked fucking good tho.

Sony fans were saying graphics don't matter? When? Have the two not been battling graphically for at least a decade and a half?
Do you mean to say they've been saying a 17% difference in theoretical GPU throughput doesn't undo talented developers who make games you want to play on it?
