  • For those who aren’t dedicated fans, they’ll be getting a fresh experience with Demon's Souls Remake on the PS5. And for the purists, they already are probably going to have strong opinions about the new art direction and style without changing anything else.
    On top of that, the developers were under pressure of being tasked with launching alongside the latest hardware and having to be a showcase for it- that’s really a lot to try and juggle. With that in mind, Demon’s Souls manages to do everything it needs to do, and this remake is a testament to just how good of a game the original was, that all it needed was a fresh coat of paint and still be nothing less than fantastic.

      Same for me! And I’m 39 also gaming all my life. Demons souls is my third favorite game of all time right after Final Fantasy 3 and Street Fighter 2! That game alone in 2009 changed the way I look at all games today!

      It was my surprise personal GotY in 2009. It seemed obvious it was Uncharted 2's year, and I also loved that series, but it wasn't even close to Demon's Souls for my top choice. I didn't stop playing it until I had the platinum trophy and then continued to play with other builds, escorted struggling players, and battled in little PvP fight clubs.

    Can you please talk about how the haptics are in the game? I don’t understand why reviews are ignoring this “next gen feature”. Sound great to me and I really want developers to take notice... unless it’s actually a gimmick

    • @sethb9687
      @sethb9687 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The haptics aren't a strong point in this game. Hitting different materials does give a different feel, but in a minor way. It almost feels similar to if you took an irod rod or something and hit a piece of metal, it'll reverberate like you hit a piece of metal. If you hit stone in the game, it'll reverberate like you hit a piece of stone. It's a very small difference and not quite as accurate as the real deal. Still cool, but not something you notice much. I haven't come across anything that takes advantage of the adaptive triggers yet, I'm assuming the bows in the game do something with it? But I'm not sure. Astros play room does a really a good job with showcasing the controller's capabilities. Surprisingly the new cod cold war does an excellent job as well. The trigger pull feels really quite realistic and very satisfying. The ADS trigger will feel harder to pull on heavier guns and makes it seem like there's actual heft to them. Even the haptic vibrations do a good job when switching weapons. Or there's a moment in zombies where it feels like the earth is vibrating through the ground. So there ya go, that's my take on it so far

    But they didn't have to revamp the entirety of gameplay and AI but just improve in the areas that needed it like more complex weapon movesets for one and secondly make the AI and gameplay mechanics of the easier enemies and bosses more difficult and less forgiving. I really don't think it would of messed with the original feel of the game cause the original game is solid but more of the edges should of been smoothed out in order to justify the high price tag of a game that came out over a decade ago.
