The experience from which he himself draws inspiration, over and over again returning to the ideas laid down here. I was surprised to find that in each of Miyazaki's next games there are echoes, references and outright borrowing from DemSouls. The game is chamber-based, but due to the well-thought-out game design, it is impossible to pass it quickly from the first playthrough. The art design of everything is also striking. Only for the sake of it is worth enduring all the pains of passing, because the design and stories in the game are engraved in the memory forever. From the pros: design, flexible roleplaying, world stories, a variety of locations, bosses and small enemies, each boss has an unobvious weak point, in some places music. Disadvantages: in places poor optimization, crookedness, in places unbearably complex game design (locations and placement of enemies are some of the most difficult in From games, while bosses are almost all easy), little usable music, some gameplay features (quickly breaking weapons, cutting HP) , no bonfires between bosses, you have to farm a lot. One of the main, at the moment, PS3 exclusives, not devoid of flaws and curves, but with a unique face, which later became a phenomenon and one of the most important, complex and deep games of recent years.… Expand

    The game itself is a MUST, the original I mean. They have done an amazing work with the remaster. It runs solid as a rock at 60 fps making a big pleasure to play it. Graphics are outstanding and the quick loading of the maps and the nexus gives a very pleasant feeling during all the game. For me is the best PS5 game you can play at this moment.

    This game is amazing! If like me you have never play to Demon's souls before this remake on PS5, when you start the game you will be annoying by the difficulty of this game and you will surely want to resell this game because it is to difficult. But if you decide to continue, you will understand the incredible pleasure that this game brings.

    Tho one drawback why it isnt a 10 is because the game instantly sends you to NG+ after finishing the game.

The game also has a choice for people who prefer fidelity or performance offering a 60 fps experience, not usually common in previous console generations. Of the biggest feature of the PS5 can be found here, which is a fast as hell loading time, this is one of the reasons why this game feels next gen compared to previous souls games.

Shrine of Storms is such a treat visually and in audio, as well as Valley of Defilement which is equally oppressive and soul crushing. I am phenomenally impressed by this game. I am a veteran souls player having finished Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1 and 3, and this game still is not easy. The levels are hard and one has to be really strategic. Dying and going through an area is still so much fun as the loading is almost non-existent.

The game is a work of art - every aspect feels crafted at the highest level. Visuals, audio, controls, animation, level design, performance. It is astounding. And frequently beautiful.

It feels like 2 seasons of the darkest TV show you'll ever find, and it frequently better than most TV on the air. That's saying a lot. I think it is an IMPORTANT game. It tore me up, and I will never, ever forget it. DS Remake is a game that will change you. In short, DS Remake put me through hell. I did not enjoy it. I wasn't supposed to. I was affected by it.

The original developers had nothing to do with the project, so I think it's commendable that Bluepoint was able to go as far as they did while keeping the base game's tone relatively intact. You can tell it wasn't for lack of effort either. The amount of detail and effort on display is staggering.

    With gameplay, I would say it is extremely faithful to the original. To a fault. The core combat is unchanged, in fact it's running the same code from my knowledge. This means that things like instant backstabs are still there, which could have been tweaked. Still, the original's core combat was exceptional and still holds up today. Additions like omnidirectional rolling, faster ladder climbing, limits to healing items you can carry, and a tweaked item burden system are welcome additions that improve the gameplay sandbox.

    Besides some missed opportunities and mistakes, I think Bluepoint knocked this out of the park. I would highly recommend this title if you have a PS5 and any interest in the Souls genre.    … Expand

    I have moved from Xbox to PS this gen and this is my first game on PS... What a game! Graphics are art and playability with the new duo sense is dope. I never had anything similar in 7 years on Xbox. Glad I moved and I feel sorry for the Xbox user who are giving a 0 or 1 rating as they wont be able to play any decent exclusive in years!

    Simply incredible. They not only remaked it completely from a graphical standpoint, but they did Quality of Life improvements to make the experience in line with modern days combat. Bluepoint are wizards.

    Sinceramente un auténtico juegazo, respeta mucho la esencia original del juego añadiendo algunas cosas, también está la opción de ponerle el filtro oscuro de la versión clásica, de todos modos es toda una experiencia jugarlo, el juego apunta a ser de los mejores exclusivos de ps5, y sobre las críticas negativas, son infundadas, esa gente no jugo el juego y solo le tira odio

    Awsome. Epic Bosses, great challenging experience.
    We play most all new games in hardest mode for a challenge and longer gameplay.
    Great to see they didn't stick in an easy mode.

    This remake is amazing, they kept the original identity and put a fresh coat on it, the shadows and atmosphere feels like the way it was intended to look like in the original, and now it can be played at solid 60fps to improve response time, no more excuses for me I guess lol. I doubt people realize this but this game is probably one of the biggest launch titles in any console.

    O remake está lindo!!! Na verdade, acho que a Bluepoint podia ter mexido mais, pra dar algumas supresas... kkk O jogo é meio besta pra quem já está acostumado com Bloodborne, Dark Souls e Sekiro, mas é uma bela introdução pra quem ainda não conhece a franquia. Acho que é o jogo mais bonito que já joguei

    Finally a FromSoftware game comes as a technical prodigy. The gameplay as I saw, got a little bit softer and accurate in therms of agility and movement. In the other hand, the bosses seems a little bit simple in the way that their moveset is kind of limited.

    Increíble puesta al día, respetando los elementos del original, pero gráficamente espectacular. Blue Point ha tocado los justo para que el gameplay no se notase anticuado, como el arreglo de la cámara y la implementación del rodado en 8 direcciones (antes era 4). Además han añadido un grandísimo modo foto y un editor de personajes muchísimo mejor que los que incorpora From Software.

    If you're a fan of the original, or love Soulsborne games you owe it to yourself to pick up this remake. It's just like the original, but with a better UI, gorgeous visuals, and more fine tuned gameplay. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you like exploration and a bit of a challenge you'll love this.

    It’s a perfect remake and I think the only people who might be disappointed with it are… the die-hard FromSoftware fans. You see, the new Demon’s Souls shows clearly how much Miyazaki’s games have evolved throughout the years. The Dark Souls series simply does everything better. The remake looks like a prototype in comparison, while still being way ahead of other developers’ achievements in this genre. [01/2021, p.46]

    Overall, Demon’s Souls is still the most interesting and varied game in the Souls series. This remake not only looks lovely on the PlayStation 5 but is also a joy to play with all the tweaks and improvements that have been introduced. Now if only people would look past its supposed difficulty and see its carefully crafted intricacy instead.

    I went in expecting the world out of the Demon’s Souls remake and it delivered me the galaxy. I don’t normally speak this highly of games, but this is the one exception. Absolutely every facet of the original has been enhanced and it has stood the test of time. Bluepoint has done an incredible job at not only reinvigorating an underappreciated gem, but also leveraging the new technologies afforded to them with Sony’s new system. While there are a couple of minor technical blemishes, they don’t take away from how good of an experience this game is and Bluepoint’s diligence as a developer will surely see these kinks ironed out. This game is a system seller.
