Wait... what? I checked EVERY part of that place and couldn't find any other route besides the one I mentioned. There are like... uh, 3 or 4 paths to reach the Flamelurker for what I remember. So you mean to tell me I lost about 10000+ souls from falling on a poorly timed drop and I didn't even need to use that route? Excuse me while I cry myself to sleep. |

That was optional. If you go the "normal" way, the way you're supposed to go, there's no platforming.

I have the PSN version. I find it kind of a pain to play because of the aiming mechanic and all that. A map takes forever to finish.
For sure. If the aiming mechanic was quicker and less annoying, then the game would have been a lot better. But that would make the game too easy. I actually like that it takes a while to aim because it makes the combat more engaging and fun to play. |

Yeah but you can say that for most Strategy RPG games, they take a long time to play especially in their maps. |

I just hope to god they don't do any kind of level design that involves platforming like the one in Demon's where you fall on those platforms in order to get to the Firelurker. Ugh!!!

I just bought this game on PSN after remembering playing this game a lot when I was 10 years old. As someone who's always looking for some good Strategy RPGs to play, this is probably one of my favorites along with Valkyria Chronicles. It's sad that no one ever took notice of this game when it first came out, I would've loved to have seen a sequel to this game because this had so much potential to have more advanced mechanics put into it.
I wanted to see if anyone on the boards have played the game and share their thoughts on it.

Well I finally played like over 50 hours of Dark Souls like people on this thread told me too and I liked it. I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm a fan because there are a lot of flaws on a technical level that can easily be fixed in the sequel. Which is why I'm excited to see what they have to offer in the sequel. Also, I disagree with Rob when he said that less back-tracking is bad in a Souls game because sometimes it was such a pain to go through 10-20 minutes of an area to get to a Bonfire when I haven't been to Anor Londo, which I still can't find to this day.

Do it.
I'm going to. But I have so many games on my backlog, I don't want to overload on another RPG. |

The key with Dark Souls is to remember that once you learn how the game expects you to play it, you will have a much easier time. It can be obtuse and has a big learning curve, but you will be stunned at how much better you get as the game goes on. Enemies that you used to fear will become a total pushover, and you'll find yourself getting hit less and less often. It's incredibly addicting, and if someone is being pretentious and ruining the experience, just ignore them and don't let them bring things down for you.
Um, dude. I'm just kidding about the whole fanbase comment. I guess maybe I shouldn't be a jokester on the forums and act all serious for once. Lol |

I'm pretty interested but at the same time there's a good chance it'll suck and all the Souls fanboys will cry and I'll drink all of their tears with pleasure! ...alright. I haven't played Dark Souls yet, but the fanbase can be pretty pretentious. And? Is that going to affect your performance when playing the game or something? :| Seriously, just read a wiki if you need any help. There's plenty of info out there to help you with Dark Souls if you don't want to bother with the community online at this point. Sorry, maybe I should've hinted a bit of sarcasm on that comment. :P |

I cruised through it, good game. The camera is atrocious and it can make the platforming towards the end of the game difficult. Other than that it was a cool game.
The camera really isn't that bad you just have to know how to use it since you're used to most games not having a fixed camera controls. |

Not that I hate the games, I've played Demon's Souls and liked it and I haven't played Dark Souls yet, but the fanbase can be pretty pretentious.
