Well, the environment is beautiful. An old overgrown castle looking over a dense forest bellow. The common slave enemies feel just like the prisoners in Latria. Fought the iron boar, but didn't defeat him. Lots of archers plugging you with arrows in this area. Fought my way through to a church hall, and fought a big armored knight, this games blue eyed knight I suppose. There was a spellcaster above shooting rays at me, who I got to after climbing up, and killed him.
Made it higher and up onto the church roof, lined with gargoyles. One of them came to life, and the boss battle ensued. He had a buckler, and was wielding a long poleaxe. I cut his tail of as I fought him, then a second one showed up, just like Maneater. This other one breathed fire, while the other kept close and swinging. Fought them on the roof for a while before finally taking them both out. It felt like their health was pretty low for the demo. I'm sure the real fight will be harder in the game. I quit here, because I felt bad for the pore guy recording with my iPhone. All that was left was to climb up the last bell tower, and ring the bell.
I'll try and upload the video later to share. There is more to the demo, too. Red wyvern, and maybe more. I'll try and get all of it recorded and linked. All I have is my iPhone, so we'll see....
Alright, off to play again

If possible, please try and take a screen of the equipment screen among other things you can think of.oracrest said:

I figured you could cut of the Gargoyles' tails, seeing as they had weapons on them. Does the second one only breathe fire or can he do normal physical attacks as well?
When you're playing, please confirm the difference between "dying" and "hollowing". Also notice the little flame in the icon next to your HP and stamina bar that goes out when you first "die".
Are the Solaire of Astora and Black Knight classes exclusive for the demo? Please ask the staff these questions, if you get a chance.

don't you guys think the Dark Knight and other class should be like level up classes? as in we get to choose them after we have leveled up and advanced quite a bit?
just being able to pick Dark Knight is kind of lame in my opinion, especially compared to just the simple and humble choices of Soldier, Wizard and stuff of the first game.

I'll by extra copies if I have to. We need games like this to survive.

Not only that but never forget what makes great games. It wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for us fans. I'd like to think GAF helped spread the word considerably. Gets me excited to usher in the new OT.Raide said:Sell games, make money, make better games!
Thank you PS3 owners for buying the crap out of Demon's Souls.
Man this game is beautiful... makes me flip the script on fools.
'You Died' has been replaced with 'You Hollowed'.
Uncharted might be technically more impressive due to some dynamics and cell spu pipelining tricks but Dark Souls is visually mindblowing right now.
Usually I would say no chance in hell but eyes are telling me otherwise.Riposte said:

Actually both phrases appear. Not sure however what the specifics are to display a certain one.Man said:

Yeah, those were two awful players lol. The phantom was swinging at air several times, and the player himself never allowed his stamina to rejuvenate and kept rolling and holding block. Neither really took the time to pot up when they had space, but then again, the # of consumables was probably limited in the demo.
Can't WAIT for this game. Although :sadface: at no Wanderer class.

I like better how he's trying to roll when he doesn't have enough strength. Ditch the armor, nub!

That is the one thing that I've been bummed about with the gameplay footage we've seen. Nearly everyone is playing heavily armored slow assed characters. I really want to see someone play as the witch. The Pyromancer footage was so good.

No, I think you die first and then when you die again, you hollow. Pretty sure I saw "you died" a bunch of times in vids.Man said:

Body and soul form isn't in Dark Souls. Instead you are either more human or more undead. The flame displayed in the top-right icon may be an indicator of how human or undead you are.
The flame dies down if you die, but is restored if you reach the place you died and regain your souls. It grows when you defeat black phantom players or the host as the invader.
