Demons Souls

[Ellisandra]

I've sat down with this game some, I gave it up when my schooling picked up and I didn't have the time or dedication to not suck so much.
I got to the fire demon guy at the end of 2-2 and just couldn't beat him. I'd always be doing pretty good, and then he'd go nuts at like 1/3 health and just rock my face
I think I took him on about 5 or 6 times and just couldn't get it!??And I couldn't find or figure out how to get any fire resist armor to make my life easier.
I'm fine with trial and error, and figuring things out.??It just seemed like this game was about 5% trial and about 95% error, heh. I did really enjoy it though, I like these kinds of games and I like a real challenge.

To be honest what turned me off wasn't so much the fact that I would die ALL THE TIME but the fact that the time-penalty for death was so high.??I don't mind losing all of my souls or taking armor damage.??What really started to get to me was the fact that I had to run through the entire level all over again, which would take me two or three times as long, at least, as it took me to get whomped by the boss XD. I guess I could always go online and read a guide or watch a video, but I didn't want to cheapen it.

Plus in 2-2 they had those stupid giant bugs that took FOREVER to kill, or even to move out of your way, which slowed things waaaay down.

Maybe in a couple weeks I'll have a good chunk of time and sit down and let this game have its way with me for a while until I start to enjoy it lol.
