Teensy quibbles aside, it’s difficult to imagine how this Demon’s Souls remake could be any better. It looks great, it sounds even better, and it’s extremely respectful of the PS3 original, which has aged surprisingly well after all these years. This is an exceptional remake, and it’s exactly what Demon’s Souls deserves.
Bir arkadaşımda oynadıktan sonraXbox Series X'in yanına bana PS5 aldıran oyun oldu. Çok dengeli bir zorluğu var, benim için en kolay souls oyunu oldu sanırım, daha doğrusu en az çıldırtanı.
Although the gameplay of the original Demon's Souls isn't out of date in 2020, Bluepoint still did a perfect remake job. It's not only because the remake version looks like a next-gen blockbuster, but also because it plays more smoothly than before. If you love souls-like games, you really should buy PS5 as soon as possible to enjoy it.
Revisiting Demon’s Souls in this fancy new package was some of the most fun I’ve had all year. The return to Boletaria was a pleasant reminder of just how good the game is, and the influx of new players makes it the current definitive choice for someone looking to get into the series. There’s a certain boldness to releasing the game relatively functionally the same so that a whole new generation of people can experience just how weird it is. While the facelift can cause some dissonance, most will experience a beautiful action RPG with some of the most tightly-designed levels and a bevy of different ways to approach the game. It may not be a brand new game, but even all these years later there still isn’t anything else quite like it.
Demon's Souls is an amazing game to show off that the PS5 is a graphical powerhouse. The mechanics from the original are intact, just like the grim and mysterious atmosphere. This might be the best launch game on the PlayStation 5.
An unforgiving, unrelenting classic reborn for a new generation, Demon's Souls is no more accessible now than it was back in 2010 (though the frame rate is much better). If you've ever been the slightest bit curious about the Souls series then you can revisit ground zero in all its glory, making for one of the best PlayStation launch titles of all time.
While you’ll get a lot of enjoyment from your time with this title, FromSoftware has definitely refined and improved on the design and mechanics in the more recent released Souls games. Without a doubt Bluepoint Games has delivered a brilliant remaster of a niche game that not a lot of people had the chance to play originally. Demon’s Souls is worth checking out on the PS5. But if you’re looking to see what makes FromSoftware so amazing at what they do, you’re going to find a better overall experience in one of their newer titles like Dark Souls III, Bloodborne, or Sekrio: Shadows Die Twice.
A great remake with incredible visuals and precise controls. Unfortunately the structure and mechanics of the game remain untouched and they didn't age that well. the progression is somethimes frustrating and some boss fight in the middle of the game are harder than the final ones.
I have very mixed feelings about the game after finishing the platinum in 3 playthroughs (2 NG+ Cycles).
The bosses being more mechanical than the bosses in later Souls games was something I needed to get used to. Once you figure out the mechanics you will never die to most bosses again... except for one... the infamous maneater...
If you think maneater was bad on ng, it is nowhere near the experience you will have on ng+ or ng++ and it is astonishing that they have not made any changes to the bossfight or at least increased the width of the bridge. It is borderline RNG which attacks he does and if you get hit, you'll more often than not drop off the bridge. Yet this is not the worst part, since you can learn to dodge or block the attacks. Once the fight starts, a timer starts for a second maneater to appear. If you are unlucky and the initial maneater decides to do more aerial attacks, during which he can only be hit by spells and arrows or he just flies off and you'll have a horrible experience when the timer runs out and you have to fight 2 of them at the same time. If you melee only on the NG+ you'll hit your wall here.
The combat in general is fine. iframes feel much shorter than in other games of the souls series though I have not done any research here. Unfortunately tight corridors make it much less interesting and more often than not you'll just hit behind your shield and let enemies hit first. The amount of ranged enemies you'll encounter in these corridors will also leave you with mixed feelings about the game.
The soul-form mechanic (getting a 50% health penalty for dying) seems stupid to me, especially for people new to souls games but if you are a souls veteran it will not influence your gameplay whatsoever as bosses are mechanical and require a less reactive playstyle.
The hardest encounters in the game are the 5 Pure-Black-World-Tendency Phantoms. They are no joke in NG+ cycles. If you get hit, you die, they have massive healthpools and defenses and one of them almost instant heals once he reaches 30% so good luck with that :)
The overall experience is good tho and as long as it is on PS Plus Extra I recommend playing it. NG is fun and the experience is pretty good (based on NG only it is a solig 9/10). Only NG+ Cycles and make the game much less enjoyable at many points and Magic builds start to massively outperform traditional melee builds.
Too hard and too easy? Demon's souls benefits from its unique art design and next generation graphics. However I found that playing the game was really hard if you were playing the "correct way" and was really easy when using an exploited strategy. The easy way make it less fun and the hard way is infuriating. Also I found the dodge mechanic to be very unresponsive/inconsistent.
SummaryFrom PlayStation Studios and Bluepoint Games comes a remake of the PlayStation classic, Demon’s Souls. Entirely rebuilt from the ground up and masterfully enhanced, this remake introduces the horrors of a fog-laden, dark fantasy land to a whole new generation of gamers. Those who’ve faced its trials and tribulations before, can once agai...
