    @ ALL GAME DEVS OUT THERE! This is how you do a Remake/Reforge/Reboot or whatever else you want to call it!
    After all the resent sloppy/horrible remakes of late I had no hope for Demon's Souls, glad Bluepoint showed the industry that remakes can be done right!
    Souls... you either love them or hate them.

    The best thing of Demon's Souls were it's design and artstyle and Bluepoint has successfully ruined it, by editing characters, colors and architecture. On the other hand the bad thing about Demon's Souls were it's unbalanced gameplay and mechanics (you still need to grind items and can abuse some weapons in pvp) and Bluepoint didn't even touched it. Bad, very bad.

The ones complaining about the changes to the game's appearance probably haven't realized there are different visual filters in the display tab and one makes it look like the original PS3 version, I commend Bluepoint for caring so much to even put that in there for diehard fans of the original who are probably bashing them for DARING to remake their game. But as for the rest, ignore their stupidity, this game alone is enough of a reason to get the PS5, my guess is a lot of them are butthurt Xbots who are pissed they won't get a single exclusive for 2 years, who the heck else would hate on such an awesome game. Demon's Souls kicks ass! Expand

    I think they did a great job with the remake. Having lightning fast load times really made this game better because I often found myself warping around the levels often. All the visual filter options are cool and the game looks great.
    I think it plays well but I did have a few minor glitches.
    My only issues are with Demon's Souls itself. Playing a melee character is really difficult

    I think it plays well but I did have a few minor glitches.

    My only issues are with Demon's Souls itself. Playing a melee character is really difficult and not as viable as it was in Dark Souls 1-3. I had to start over and play a mage because otherwise the game is frustrating as heck. But I definitely enjoyed it. I just don't think it's as balanced with the classes and customizations as Dark Souls.
    While there are some memorable and fun boss fights, they were definitely a lot easier than Dark Souls bosses. It felt like the levels themselves were more challenging here and just getting to the bosses was the real challenge. I wish the end boss wasn't such a wimp.

    This game isn't worth $70 but when it's on sale I'd definitely recommend it.

    Cons:
    -SJW character creator "body type" vs. Male/Female (keep politics out of games please)
    -Lost some of the lore in the character design
    -Soundtrack is great, but not as oddly alien as the original (perf the original)
    -No 6th Archstone

    Pros:
    -Literally everything else

    I'm someone who played and loved DS3 and Bloodborne and was excited to give Demon's Souls a try, never having played it before. It turns out that this game is extremely faithful to the original game, which means that the mechanics of the game are quite dated. I've put about ten hours into it at this point and I don't think I'm going to go any further, because it's just so tedious.

I've put about ten hours into it at this point and I don't think I'm going to go any further, because it's just so tedious. The game is pretty easy for the most part, including the regular enemies and bosses. This, unfortunately, leaves the challenging parts to be the things which aren't fun at all, including the maze like levels and distance between the save points and the end of the level. If you make a mistake, or if the game throws in something like an invisible enemy that inflicts a new status effect that kills you in seconds towards the end of the level, then you get to retrace quite a long trail to get back where you were. Maybe ten years ago, this would have been less of a tough pill to swallow, but in today's day and age, and after having played (and mastered) DS3 and Bloodborne, this type of gameplay just feels tedious to be moreso than fun. I guess I'm back to waiting for Elden Ring. Expand

    While the graphics is indeed awesome, the most iconic aspect of this game was its soundtrack. They "remastered" wrongly, removing all the iconic bits that made it so special, and now it sounds extremely generic fantasy music. The soundtrack of the Tower Knight boss fight? Gone.

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.

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.

    This is such an amazing game and enjoying this so much! I love the graphics, UI and gameplay! It's been so awesome! Over 15hrs and 6 bosses down already and more to go!

The atmosphere, the voice acting, the world I have never played before, going into this souls game for the first time has me frantically hoping to play even more than I should. So far, I’ve come to the point where I’m at the prison and I can’t even describe the feeling I get discovering the unknown, reading the silly notes peopleJust want to say, this launch title is absolutely amazing!

    El mejor remake que he visto hasta hoy en dia. Un verdadero desafio con el padre de los soul que no te puedes perder, con un aspecto técnico impecable y que te dejará con la boca abierta. Aquí empieza la verdadera Next Gen.

    The best thing about this wonderful remake is that it truly feels like a new "Souls" game, rather than an old one being brought back to life. The graphics are incredible, the music is wonderful and the kingdom of Boletaria was recreated beautifully by Bluepoint Games. If you managed to get a PS5, but still haven't played this game, you're wasting your time.

    Work of art when it comes to video games, difficult, beautiful and rewarding.
    The user review will have two bases of haters, people who don't have PS5 and people that can't "GIT GUD" just read the red reviews and you know what I mean.

    I'm a Xbox/PC player, but damn this game convinced me to buy a ps5 and i regret nothing. The most beautyful looking game i've ever seen. Great lightning, awesome enemy design, the soundtrack is just wonderfull recreated, the gameplay is just great fluent with locked 60fps.
    That's what i call an absolutely great remake and awesome launch title for a new console release.

    Demon's Souls Review: 10/10
    Blue Point didn't just made the original Demon's Souls a hundred times better but they made a must play experience that showcases the power and potential of the PS5.

    Is this still a great Souls game that was remembered by many? Yes! Does it play fantastic? Sure! But is this a good remake? I think not.

    It's really a shame that Bluepoint went with a new art direction that lacks subtleties and eccentricities which make the original game mysteriously gloomy. This is especially evident on the controversial design changes of some enemies. I don't write
    Is this still a great Souls game that was remembered by many? Yes! Does it play fantastic? Sure! But is this a good remake? I think not.

    It's really a shame that Bluepoint went with a new art direction that lacks subtleties and eccentricities which make the original game mysteriously gloomy. This is especially evident on the controversial design changes of some enemies. I don't write this to tarnish the amount of work they dedicated to the project, but a huge portion of the extra work is redundant.

    Some may argue that it's inevitable to be westernized. Well then hire more competent Asian artists with an Asian upbringing and aesthetics in Cthulhu and Japanese tentacle art.

    And some may say the original intent can in no way be fully understood because of the tech limitation that plagued the original. Well, just look at more recent Souls games like Sekiro, and see how far it's come since Demon's Souls in tech. Surely, Sekiro isn't a technically amazing game, but you can still get the idea how a proper gloomy, dark, morbid image should look with new techs.

    At the end of the day, the original will still stand high, because its art endures. And the remake is such a squandered opportunity, and SotC Remake is much better in comparison.

    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.
