@WhoBurnedMyToast The part where you said that should be a BS animation I know they have tightened the area pertaining where you execute the BS but also I knew everything in Des was backstabbable except bosses other than mini's though I think they made some mobs non bsable possibly.
@sentyuu Wow. Thank you so much for your comment! I had no idea King's Field even existed. I've often wondered how they achieved such a great design for Demon's Souls since I had not previously played anything like it.
Don't worry about your english my friend. We got the point lol.
@sentyuu Very cool. Berserk is actually a Manga I currently read. I love it. I'll look into these other ones. -- Btw Sentyuu I wrote an article yesterday after you posted about King's Field on my Blog. I wanted to link it to you, but it won't let me. email me so that I can send you the link - I credit your name on it: whoburnedmytoast@gmail.com
With this game being right around the corner, people like VECTOR, jswsn, EWGF, chewyoreo (me), AstralDesign, Jassim, and Selen are all pumped like hell.
@GioGrimaldi Lighting the bonfire I think is just like a checkpoint. When you actually rest at the bonfire is when you'll refresh your canteen (heath item) and refresh your spells. Resting at the Bonfire also resets the whole world so anything you've killed is back of course.
It appears that Faith users have an offensive miracle again. Not too happy with the cast time of Lightning Bolt/Great Heal, nor the limitation of spells (PVP perspective), but at least we get some long ranged attacks instead of depending on a bow.
@50lid5nak3 I think it's a bit odd but it might level the playing field. That or it'll create some kind of perfect PVP combination that everyone will lean towards. We also don't really know if those cast times are going to be that quick.
Since this is just a demo for the Media I really think a lot of this was made to be super easy.
@whoburnedmytoast There will likely be that perfect PVP combo anyway, but it'll probably differentiate depending on the build. IIRC, miracles like Second Chance won't be in, so it's still possible for there to be room for LB for Faith builds in PVP, which is good. On reflection, I'm fine with Heal/G.Heal being relegated to PVE. I just hope they come up with some better miracles this time around (Lol Ressurection, buff Banish/God's Wrath)
so...where is the Nexus like place? and does anyone know if its like Demons souls, being able to go to nexus after beating each boss and upgrading? or are they not showing it cuz its a demo?
@whoburnedmytoast one big world as in i will have to get to a certain point in the game to access the Nexus or i will be able to turn around and leave the world for a nexus like place anytime i want?
I liked demons souls because it was the only rpg where i didnt have partake in some feeble quest to help a villager weed there garden or courier some letter the vast distance across the street. There's nothing i hate more than being some unlucky peasants erand boy.
@UnknownDude007 It's going to more difficult. This was a demo build at E3. That usually means that media are going to be playing the game, and reporting back to their blogs/websites about it. Which means they dumbed it down a lot.
If they made the game as brutal and difficult as it's going to be mostly all the reports you'd be reading from IGN, and the like would say "THIS GAME SUCKS" because they couldn't get past the first mob.
Uhhh, Did he say "its quite possibly more brutal"? From this demo gameplay it seems like a walk in the park. He did more damage to the boss than the boss did to him. . . Although im sure they made the demo easy so any random person walking by can pick it up and feel like a God. Lol @ when they actually buy the game >:)
i know why did they do this to us?! what game do u play first they all release so close to each other @@ im going to have to do dark souls then AC we will c what happens next
Compared to the boss on demon's souls that its just like this one, it seems way harder on demon's souls. Maybe on the actual game it will be much harder
@Gucollares You can also "Strengthen bonfires" which makes the bonfire up the amount of uses on the canteen and spells by 1. Everyone on the server gets that boost on that same bonfire as well I heard.
@mega227 Right above the spell (you'll notice now that I pointed it out) there's a number. That's how many times you can use it before it runs out. To replenish the spell you have to sit at the bonfire. I imagine there'll probably be some items to help too but I don't know how difficult it'll be to get them as there is no Nexus making this just a whole world you have to crawl around in.
In Demon's Souls when fighting enemies with the Dragon Bone Smasher, it does damage to the enemy but they're still able to finish off their attack animation even though you've hit them with a weapon first that should have sent them flying (example of this is the Fat Official can still throw fire when hit with the Dragon Bone Smasher first thus leading to an instant kill). Has this been fixed in the combat because I class this cheap in the original?
@slightlytwistedagain No idea there wasn't any mob that I encountered like that in the demo. I imagine that in Demon's Souls they made it that way on purpose. Just like the Skeletons with the giant swords in 4-2. Some of the same moves that would interrupt other skeletons won't interrupt them.
somethings should have been improved that were not, like the bodies of enemies that behave stupidly in the floor after they die. The stairs are still to slow to climb... but.... i can't wait to get my hands in this game! >D
@HandstandTeddy it pretty much is, but easier, maneater takes me 2-3 times at best on ng, after thatits more like1-5 depending on what class i am and what skills i got by then.
So is there no loot dropped when you kill enemies? Or are they just withholding it just for the demo's purposes, because I gonna be pretty pissed if I don't get my loot from defeating badass motherfuckers...
Hearing the player (a decently skilled player from Demon's Souls) say something along the lines of it being the "same feel" and the "same mechanics" of Demon's Souls is going to make a lot of people very very very happy to hear that.
He (or his friend behind him) mentioned from it also being graphically better in such a way that I think they mean it's a "big difference".
The detail in the enemy Demon Priest in Black and Gold weave at [time lapse] 4:20, is unbelievable.
You sir definately did the best out of all of the previous dark souls e3 previewers. You put all of those damn game review companies to shame with this (especially the ign guy who died three times on one skeleton).
@greystripe92 there is a four part demo i saw where the guy playing was a total pro. dodged like every move and killed both bosses without even using lightning, but this video has better quality.
its refreshing to watch someone who actually knows how to play. i wasn't constantly yelling at my computer screen because of how much the player sucked.
Whoa, someone actually completed the demo? congratulations! this demo made me realize just how incompetent the gaming press actually is when actually... gaming, weird huh?
@DavetzWin yeah elder scrolls games arent hard (unless you suck at making characters) but they still rock. those are the games where you spend the time to read scrolls and invent new spells instead of fighting skyscraper tall tower knights and have to learn weaknesses and tactics
@Goshujinsama01 It will but this is a different game. They said its not story driven. Its just a dungeon game and you can PVP/Quest together. Kinda like Diablo. Skyrim is a HUGE game with a deep story and Character progression. I'm excited for BOTH!
@62cky4powerthirst Nope if you look closely you can see a number right above the spell. Same with the healing spell, and the canteen. All of these things get refilled when you use the "Bonfire". Also when you use the bonfire--Everything comes back to life.
@62cky4powerthirst Na, but one thing to note is there is NO NEXUS any longer. So you can no longer "Touch The Demon" inside wax face lol. You probably just encounter someone along the way every once in a while since it's one big world now. Or who knows maybe you can touch your own Demon's inside of you ;).
@62cky4powerthirst I agree. I think one of the major flaws of Demon's Souls was to even have a leveling system. Why is that even there? Enough with the "RPG Elements". Force feeding us a shitty leveling system that has no place in action games like this. If you get invaded at an early level, screw it. What a better way to be introduced to the cannibalistic harsh world of this game.
@62cky4powerthirst I'm fairly certain there will be. This demo however didn't really showcase any of that. They just had you pick a character that was already equipped, and turned you loose.
Just for your information, just before this area, you have to fight a giant metal Boar. The fun thing about it is the backstand command works on it. It looks like you're shoving your sword up it's ass XD!!
@whoburnedmytoast Every time I hear more about dark souls I feel like jumping up and down on the floor screaming like an arogant child until I get what I want. October 7th is not comming quick enough, I feel like locking myself in a freezer until that day comes
Well From Software wasn't exactly too creative with this boss design . . . . .
Flying beast that you fight on a high up area that you can fall off and die. Also duplicates itself when down to enough health. Who does that sound like?
Not complaining, but they just got lazy with this boss.
@TheLeggio The Maneaters from Demons Souls. And if you go to 6:37 and look to the far left of the video, another Gargoyle comes down, the first one didn't duplicate itself.
@TheLeggio i think they just showed this boss for the demo to leave all of the awesome harder shit for later, plus i think this one can make four of itself, it has weapons,uses fire and theres a bigger area (thank fucking jesus) saw a boss that looked like a fat tower knight with no shield that was fucking huge, three times as big as TK and he just chases you around a giant field, which looks cool, it was like a 4 second clip but thats what it looked like to me.
@TheLeggio spells n miracles work on a stock system, meaning instead of havin a magic bar the spell or miracle has certain amount of times u can use it.for example in this vid great heal can only be used 5 times.Once u use it 5 times thats it, u cant use it anymore until u light up a bonfire.
Is grass gone? If so, that's fucking great because it made PvP a huge pain in the ass. Limited healing should reduce boss cheesing and three hour PvP matches, hopefully the urn is the only healing item outside of magic spells (also no magic meter from what I've seen, does that mean that all spells have a timed cooldown?).
@glukaschlok they seem to have a counter aswell that can be refilled by dying or via a bonfire. Same goes with hp. It has also, from what I read in the huge Gfaqs thread, confirmed that 3 invaders is now the maximum and that invaders CANNOT heal themselves.
Oh lord, two of em? Not another Maneater boss -_- I died so many times to those things, I had to cheese them to death with magic arrows because if I went in close-range they would just fly off and waste time until they could group up and knock me off the cliff or annihilate me with their lunge attacks. Not a fun memory... At least this arena gives you a bit more space, and they don't seem to fly off very often if at all, so I'm a bit more hopeful for the Belfry Gargoyles XD
I'm curious, did they explain if that circle next to your status bar on the top left is still Soul Tendency? Or is it something else? I also noticed that World Tendency is gone and your magic bar isn't showing, so I imagine the magic bar is only shown when you have a magic item out like a catalyst? I'm really interested to see what they've done with the game system, I hope they don't take too much out or add too much, as it seems the game looks just as good if not better than Demon's Souls.
@blazeeeji No it has limit, you can see the number next to the item. You can refill your bottle at a bonfire (and some others things like your magic) but it respawn the basic enemies so you have to choose.
Yeah, well some of the regular enemies can parry and riposte your attacks this time around. That shield won't save you. But really, the Solair of Astora "class" created for this demo is by far the strongest build available for the demo. It also helps that it looks amazing too. I may just take an Oath to Astora for this gear alone.
@DariusDaGreat86 Have you seen other videos with the character select screen? Solair of Astora's and Black Knight's boxes have a star in the upper right corner; this indicates a buffed up character. You may think this looks "dumbed down and casual", but I can assure you this game is anything but. FromSoftware has already stated the game won't be easier for the sake of casual players. BTW, standard enemies re-spawn after using the bonfire; there's a possibility of increased difficulty as well. =)
@DariusDaGreat86 I think it's just like that for Demo purposes. If it was as hard as it's going to be when you actually buy it, nobody would be able to get to the boss, less get anywhere lol. Game media is notoriously bad at video games, so they dumb things down for them.
Maybe it's because I've beaten Demon's Souls twice - but the combat in this game looks significantly easier. The attacks are just slower and less frequent...
@beastrn I was thinking that as well, but then, this is only a demo; probably just the first world at BWT. I cannot wait for this game now, nice to see someone who can actually play! I'm gonna have to fire up Demons Souls now; I'm just a pure bladestone away from the Platinum.

mega227 7 months ago
@mega227 There´s NO mana in Dark Souls.
The system has switched to a fixed number of uses per interval (probably recharge at checkpoints).
It is unclear if you can raise that number of uses or even if there´ll a "Poll of Use" to be divided between known miracles/spells.
The only certain thing is: There´s no mana anymore. So, no farming/stacking spices.
This will most likely mean that either the spells are quite buffed up OR the physical combat abilities of mages/priests are no longer SO bad.

@Goshujinsama01 It will but this is a different game. They said its not story driven. Its just a dungeon game and you can PVP/Quest together. Kinda like Diablo. Skyrim is a HUGE game with a deep story and Character progression. I'm excited for BOTH!

@whoburnedmytoast do you have infinite lighning bolts?
62cky4powerthirst 8 months ago
@62cky4powerthirst Nope if you look closely you can see a number right above the spell. Same with the healing spell, and the canteen. All of these things get refilled when you use the "Bonfire". Also when you use the bonfire--Everything comes back to life.

@whoburnedmytoast damn, do you know how the upgrade system works?
62cky4powerthirst 8 months ago
@62cky4powerthirst Na, but one thing to note is there is NO NEXUS any longer. So you can no longer "Touch The Demon" inside wax face lol. You probably just encounter someone along the way every once in a while since it's one big world now. Or who knows maybe you can touch your own Demon's inside of you ;).
whoburnedmytoast 8 months ago
@whoburnedmytoast I sincerly hope that there is no upgrade system, so I will always be able to engage in pvp
62cky4powerthirst 8 months ago
@62cky4powerthirst I agree. I think one of the major flaws of Demon's Souls was to even have a leveling system. Why is that even there? Enough with the "RPG Elements". Force feeding us a shitty leveling system that has no place in action games like this. If you get invaded at an early level, screw it. What a better way to be introduced to the cannibalistic harsh world of this game.

@whoburnedmytoast Is there still armor and weapon durability?
62cky4powerthirst 7 months ago
@62cky4powerthirst I'm fairly certain there will be. This demo however didn't really showcase any of that. They just had you pick a character that was already equipped, and turned you loose.
Just for your information, just before this area, you have to fight a giant metal Boar. The fun thing about it is the backstand command works on it. It looks like you're shoving your sword up it's ass XD!!

@whoburnedmytoast Every time I hear more about dark souls I feel like jumping up and down on the floor screaming like an arogant child until I get what I want. October 7th is not comming quick enough, I feel like locking myself in a freezer until that day comes
62cky4powerthirst 7 months ago
Well From Software wasn't exactly too creative with this boss design . . . . .
Flying beast that you fight on a high up area that you can fall off and die. Also duplicates itself when down to enough health. Who does that sound like?
Not complaining, but they just got lazy with this boss.
TheLeggio 8 months ago
@TheLeggio The Maneaters from Demons Souls. And if you go to 6:37 and look to the far left of the video, another Gargoyle comes down, the first one didn't duplicate itself.
BOXN1 8 months ago
@BOXN1 Seemed like it did because they had the same amount of energy either way... stupid fuckin' gargoyles!
whoburnedmytoast 8 months ago
@TheLeggio i think they just showed this boss for the demo to leave all of the awesome harder shit for later, plus i think this one can make four of itself, it has weapons,uses fire and theres a bigger area (thank fucking jesus) saw a boss that looked like a fat tower knight with no shield that was fucking huge, three times as big as TK and he just chases you around a giant field, which looks cool, it was like a 4 second clip but thats what it looked like to me.

Does anyone know how magic works now? Do spells and miracles take up stamina or something now?
TheLeggio 8 months ago
@TheLeggio idk it looked like there was a number over the spell -.-
xxKxNxIxGxHxTxx 8 months ago
@TheLeggio spells n miracles work on a stock system, meaning instead of havin a magic bar the spell or miracle has certain amount of times u can use it.for example in this vid great heal can only be used 5 times.Once u use it 5 times thats it, u cant use it anymore until u light up a bonfire.
Carreralu01 8 months ago
Is grass gone? If so, that's fucking great because it made PvP a huge pain in the ass. Limited healing should reduce boss cheesing and three hour PvP matches, hopefully the urn is the only healing item outside of magic spells (also no magic meter from what I've seen, does that mean that all spells have a timed cooldown?).
glukaschlok 8 months ago
@glukaschlok they seem to have a counter aswell that can be refilled by dying or via a bonfire. Same goes with hp. It has also, from what I read in the huge Gfaqs thread, confirmed that 3 invaders is now the maximum and that invaders CANNOT heal themselves.

SuperVidyaGaems 8 months ago
Oh lord, two of em? Not another Maneater boss -_- I died so many times to those things, I had to cheese them to death with magic arrows because if I went in close-range they would just fly off and waste time until they could group up and knock me off the cliff or annihilate me with their lunge attacks. Not a fun memory... At least this arena gives you a bit more space, and they don't seem to fly off very often if at all, so I'm a bit more hopeful for the Belfry Gargoyles XD
Quadraxis14 8 months ago
I'm curious, did they explain if that circle next to your status bar on the top left is still Soul Tendency? Or is it something else? I also noticed that World Tendency is gone and your magic bar isn't showing, so I imagine the magic bar is only shown when you have a magic item out like a catalyst? I'm really interested to see what they've done with the game system, I hope they don't take too much out or add too much, as it seems the game looks just as good if not better than Demon's Souls.

If there's no magic bar, what's preventing you from continually casting "Great heal"?
It does gray out at 1:10 but I'm not sure why.
psychomantis89 8 months ago
@psychomantis89 it seems like it has a certain number of charges with how many times you can cast it, and you recharge it at the campfires

@blazeeeji No it has limit, you can see the number next to the item. You can refill your bottle at a bonfire (and some others things like your magic) but it respawn the basic enemies so you have to choose.

That shield can hold ALOT of damage, there are only heavy shields like that in Demon Souls, with the shield the game looks kinda ... easy
Ziscariote 8 months ago
@Ziscariote
Yeah, well some of the regular enemies can parry and riposte your attacks this time around. That shield won't save you. But really, the Solair of Astora "class" created for this demo is by far the strongest build available for the demo. It also helps that it looks amazing too. I may just take an Oath to Astora for this gear alone.
XoRandomGuyoX 8 months ago
@Ziscariote - i agree, looks like dumbed down casual shit.
DariusDaGreat86 8 months ago
@DariusDaGreat86 Have you seen other videos with the character select screen? Solair of Astora's and Black Knight's boxes have a star in the upper right corner; this indicates a buffed up character. You may think this looks "dumbed down and casual", but I can assure you this game is anything but. FromSoftware has already stated the game won't be easier for the sake of casual players. BTW, standard enemies re-spawn after using the bonfire; there's a possibility of increased difficulty as well. =)
jroc1176 8 months ago
@DariusDaGreat86 I think it's just like that for Demo purposes. If it was as hard as it's going to be when you actually buy it, nobody would be able to get to the boss, less get anywhere lol. Game media is notoriously bad at video games, so they dumb things down for them.
