My First Date with Demon’s Souls (PS3)
I saw a review on this game and have been watching it for a while now. Tonight I traded in Batman and Folklore and laid out some fiat currency for this game. I heard I would die … many times.
The tutorial is pretty sweet and throws you into killing possessed bodies and skeletons of soldiers that have fought before you. Anyone online that is playing in the same area you can see as a ghost. Watching them can tell you what to or what not to do. It’s something that I never would have thought would be sweet until these things started wailing on me.
As a Barbarian I swing my club like a champ and brake many of these smaller obstacles, collecting their souls along the way. And then it happened …
My first boss battle. I lost. I charged and he killed me with one swipe of an axe larger than any bong I have ever seen.
So ended my introduction to Demon’s Souls. Pwned by some huge creature that I will not describe out of respect for this game. So far … I like this game. I see many sleepless nights in my future.
