Jess Ragan Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Just beat Phalanx! Yeah, eat some of THAT tasty crap! Now I can actually DO things. (HINT: Never start the game as anything but the Royalty class. You'll hate yourself if you try anyone else.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Just beat Phalanx! Yeah, eat some of THAT tasty crap! Now I can actually DO things. (HINT: Never start the game as anything but the Royalty class. You'll hate yourself if you try anyone else.) When I first got this game last year I had no manual, no guides, nothing to tell me what the heck I was doing and I started out as a naked Barbarian. I died like a million times until I tried the Royal which was my third try. (My 2nd character was a Hunter). Don't forget the cling ring Jess but it sounds like you have it. Remember to use magic from a distance for the 2nd boss. I need to catch up to Moycon. I will be playing it this weekend.

moycon Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) I will be playing it this weekend. (Offline because I need to level up) Obviously (to me anyways because I've done it a dozen times) the easiest exploit to leveling up is in the 1st level and luring the red eyed knight to his doom via the stairway for a quick 2000+ souls. Knowing what I know now, I may be able to play as another class. That however remains to be seen. There can be no doubt I have issues with this game, but don't mistake my bitching for anything more than just that. Petty bitching. Demon's Souls is easily my favorite PS3 game and I highly recommend it to everyone, but especially to those who love RPGs. If you've mastered many RPGs in the past, you will easily master this game. (Looks at Tempest) When I first got this game last year I had no manual, no guides, nothing to tell me what the heck I was doing Heh, I know this feeling, I purchased Shadow Man 2 for the PS2 the day it came out, and beat it probably within two weeks, but it was two LONG frustrating weeks, because in spite of having the internet...there were no guides at all for the game. None. In fact other people were hitting me up asking me how to progress. Good times. Edited November 7, 2009 by moycon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Thag Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Yeah, this game finally made me take the plunge to get a PS3. It's sooooo good. I love the uncompromising toughness, and the fact that it makes you pay for being stupid, like the old Wizardry games did. In fact, this is the first RPg in years that's really taken what I used to love about RPGs (exploration, freedom, customization, challenge) and update them in a modern action format. I love the setting, the plot, and well, pretty much everything, even though it occasionally makes me want to throw a controller at the wall Yeah, I'm liking the PS3.

cimerians Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Its white tendency the next few weeks! PLAY!!!! Where is everyone at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 To anyone who is still playing...white tendency is still in effect. The gate in the lower left when you first start the game should become unlocked. That psycho executioner chick Miranda is down there so beware. Her female only light armor kicks ass and if that doesnt work cause you have a male character then a complete set of Brushwood Armor is just below her butchery. There's also a set of rafters you can balance across to reach some treasure, I havent been able to do it. I usually fall off and die. Not sure what it is...

DaytonaUSA Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I havent played this in a while. I need to get back to playing it. Are the stones that bring you back to life more common as you go on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I just got this for Christmas, but I dont know when I'll get to it. What is this White Tendency thing? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 What is this White Tendency thing? Tempest There are certain gates in the game that lead to areas that can only be opened if you have white or dark tendency and usually getting that is determined by acts you do in the game. This site looks like it breaks down the things you would have to do... http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/world-tendency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gospeedde Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I know I'm a little late to the party, but I've been chipping away at this game and I finally beat Flamelurker and I'm pretty pleased about it. I was stuck on him for nearly a month. I suck at magic, so I mostly kill things with my trusty axe or my not-so-trusty bow and that bugger was too fast for me for a long time. Now things are much more fun since I can make fancy weapons and the last part of level 1 is open finally and I found the crows and gave them shiny things and since I've beat at least one guy in every level but 5 I can work on more than one thing at a time and not get so frustrated playing the same part over and over and over. This game is really hard, but you can see yourself improve and so it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White tendency is in effect till Tuesday. http://playstation.joystiq.com/2010/02/12/demons-souls-bipolar-valentines-event-begins-today/ AWESOME news! My issue last time there was White tendency is I'm stuck in the swampy level and can't figure out how to get back to the Nexus! I don't just want to press start and warp back because I'll lose all my souls! UGH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't just want to press start and warp back because I'll lose all my souls! UGH. Ha! I know the feeling! This is the perfect time to beat a boss or access some of the white tendency secret areas. Especially the one I mentioned earlier. (The executioner chicks armor set). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Whichever, I can't wait. Man what a great game Demon Souls is!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophero Sly Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Do you have to be online to play this game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Blast from the past. Do you have to be online to play this game? Nope. Dark Souls is the same deal if I recall. It automatically puts you online but if it does not detect an internet connection then your offline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
