i think so. also carnage who is a crypto-vgpresser
gamingeek said:So co-op, how many can play at once?
it's very restricted. the host needs to have his full body form (which is very uncommon for most people), and he can summon up to two players as blue phantoms to play co-op against a boss he hasn't yet beaten in his playthrough
Its 77.65% likley that I must buy a PS3 this payday and demons soul to save humanity from impending disaster, the world may be doomed if I do not!
Stupid, now I have to be a multi console owner, support multiple librarys and hope to pay for it all on the magic power of hopes and dreams.

Dvader said:It's almost impossible to talk about this game to people who have not played it. I will just say that it is excellent. It deserves all the 9 reviews it got. It is so different from the norm, I am almost amazed that a game like this got created in this gen.
You can say that again.
This game is really tough to describe so I will try to have some order to how I will explain the game and why its so cool. If you have any questions you want answered post them here.
Dvader said:I cant wait till the podcast is up, you guys need to listen to the Demon's Souls segment. Now I can talk more about co-op and the PvP as I have experienced both. This game is genius on so many levels but with that comes issues. Which I will save for the next podcast which hopefully I can make.
Also keep a listen for me repeatedly trying to get him to move on.

You failed.
Do an all Beatles Rock Band and Demons soul podcast.
Then I can rip my eyes out as I listen.

How can you not want to hear about Demon's Souls.
I guess it needs more home and gardening gameplay.

Damn straight!
I'm bandwidth challenged - it doesn't sound like this would be much of a draw for a solo gamer like me. Am I right? I mean, how much will I be mising out on?

solo is awesome too, i don't think you'd be missing much. also the online is kind of understated most of the time. it's good to have your machine connected as you will be able to see all the bloodstains and all the warning signs from other players. but it's very rare that you will have the chance to call a blue phantom for active multiplayer. so while the online is good for making you not feel entirely alone in boletaria, you are essentially playing the game on your own.
Bugsy - good to see you man.

Buddy have you received your order yet?
I've been playing this game again since i set up my ps3 again for my friend to transfer his PSN games.
I started playing as a Royal as Rag suggested. This along with my previous experience of it has made the game seem a lot less difficult than before. My spell (soul arrow) is practically limitless due to the magic regen. ring whereas the Mage would use up all the MP after casting the fire spell just 5-6 times. I almost feel i am cheating so i try to use melee combat as much as possible.
i went back to boletaria castle today and defeated the black knight with the red eyes. then i found the small king. was i supposed to just talk to him? anyway since i could lock-on to him i started firing soul arrows at him which did no damage at all. then he came to fight me and i gave a good few strong lashes with my sword, still no damage. at that point i ran off. have i fucked up that beat?
also in 1-2, in my previous profile i met the knight Ostrava again and talked to him and let him do his thing. this time, he was nowhere to be found. does this mean i let him die in 1-1? i certainly talked to him and killed the ghouls that were stalking him but i don't know if the knights then killed him. is this affecting my world tendency/character tendency? moreover, what is really the world tendency and how do i affect it?
in 2-1 i see a lot of glowing loot i can't get to at one point in particular there was a plank leading to a platform with what looked like a lot of good stuff but the second i began to walk on it it broke and there was no other way to get across.
i also need some advice with gear. i'm playing as a royal as Rag suggested and I got the crescent falchion+1 from 4-1. should i leave it as it is or can blacksmith Ed make something useful to it? and where are the guys who will teach me new spells?
it's now getting harder and harder to level up, each level coming at around 5000 souls or more so grinding is pretty well pointless.
i'm also a bit unclear about the online. sometimes it's pretty barren, with no ghosts what so ever and with hardly any messages. at other times it seems to be teeming with life with lots of ghosts running about and tons of messages and bloodstaines.
so far i've beaten 1-2 and 2-1 bosses but i feel i kinda cheesed through those battles. i fought the big knight with magic from up on the fortress walls (i had attempted a more direct fight previously by trying to run around him and dodge his attacks but i couldn't negotiate the camera at the same time so i ran up the steps). did a similar thing with the big spider who could hardly even attack in my direction since i had the thief's ring on and she was missing me.
i also met a bunch of other NPCs in the Nexus. a guy wanting to teach me to perform miracles (is that worth my while at all?) and st freke's apprentice who can teach me some spells. should i attempt to go rescue st freke yet?
