......duh.
It's Demon Souls 2 with a name change so that they can make it multiplatform.

New screens....good. Something to FAP to tonight :)

Alot of people are saying this looks graphically inferior to Demon's Souls.

Apparently alot of people also need to get their eyes checked. Look at the level of detail in the environments, it looks really good. They've also added a wider range of colors. I'm really looking forward to this, maybe we won't need a new King's Field.

demon's souls never needed/had awesome graphics. design, mood and gameplay were features making it the most awesome game ever.

ds could run on much worse hardware and still look the same. the only people who don't want to believe that are actually offended it has gone to 360 too and don't really care about ds. all it matters to them is one exclusive less

Vagina monster is still the best monster.

The game looks better than Demon Souls in Many aspects. They learnt a lot from developing the first one on the PS3 so its normal that they made improvements in second one. Anyways i dont know about the 360 version but according to a mag from japan the PS3 version of dark souls looks better than demon souls.

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.
