it seems demons souls is really liked by alot of ppl on this site too make it into their top 5.

Demon's Souls is an experience like no other currently in this generation. It quickly rose to one of my favourite games of all time. 

One must taste the feeling of trying to defeat the Flamelurker with no herbs on your inventory and 500K souls accumulated. The adrenaline rush that you get has no match xD

 

What happens with those souls if u die against the Flamelurker? I mean why is ther adrenaline rush.

Whenever you die, you leave a bloodstain containing your souls in the place you were killed. The problem is, that if you get killed again, before getting your souls back, you lose them forever. 

Sometimes, if you're lucky, whenever you die in a boss fight, the bloodstain will be located just before the boss room, but most of the times, it will be located right inside the room next to the boss.

I have lost 2M souls that way, but not with the Flamelurker. I was farming souls of Black Phantom Black Skeletons in Pure Black Tendency on world 4-2, when a frigging Manta sniped me from afar, without giving the sound hint that they were attacking. 

When I got back to that area, I blocked the sniping attack, but the block drained my whole Stamina and put me in the FOV of the BP Black Skeleton which destroyed me in one blow. 

lol

Sounds exciting, this game. Good examples of how challenging it is. Im have to get it eventually.

If you ever get to play it, be prepared to be frustrated for the first hours of the game, if you can't evolve your techinque to fit the game.

I've seen people stuck on world 1-1 for days, others have passed it in a couple of minutes. It all boils down to individual skills. 

From minutes to days eh...?

Looking at videos the game doesn't seem hard and I've watched a lot of videos. I know it is very very hard, just saying. Are the controls responsive? I am afraid that the controls will feel sloppy and that being a reason why it's hard to hit or avoid opponents.

Actually, the controls are pretty responsive. You dodge, block, parry and attack in an instant. The problem is not with the controls, is to time each motion so that it won't come back to bite you.

You can play defensively the entire game, but blocking each single attack will drain you of your stamina, leaving you wide open for extremely damaging attacks and with no means of attacking yourself

If you play offensively the entire game, then you'll have to master the timming for dodges, and even then you're bound to be hit sometimes.

The game is just as hard as each person individual skill (or lack of). I breezed through NG+, NG++ and NG+++ which all have over twice the difficulty of the first playthrough, while I had some troubles on the first playthrough.  

Ok, cool. How many hours did that take? those playthroughs

Ok, cool. How many hours did that take? those playthroughs

First playthrough lasted me 60 hours, but bear in mind that I did every single possible thing that's to do in the game, on the first playthrough. Each side quest, World Tendency events and stone farming.

The three other playthroughs took me 10 hours each, because I was just doing them to get the Souls from the bosses, which are required to craft specific Weapons and spells in order to get the platinum.

So if you're just looking at the average playtime without much sidequesting and aren't looking for the platinum, then it will take you between 30-40 hours to complete.

you havent even scratched the surface about the online stuff lol, such an awesome feeling when your in a world with 2 summoned guys and a black phantom decides to burst into your game lol , i remember one pvp match i had with this one dude , it lasted for about 20 mins i t was so freaking intense and when you come out victorious that feeling of accomplishment and reward shoots through the roof.

the whole game is a materpiece , its so proffesionally crafted around the gameplay its amazing , its hard but it gets easier with time and its beyond addicting.  i put it in the game/drugs category like blizzard games and mmos.

Dude, I've been through the online for more hours than it took me to get the Platinum

My biggest Black Phantom streak online is 12. Insanity Catalyst + Firestorm + Monk Collar Head = Pure Win XD Or Poison Cloud + Baby Nail too

I would gladly try the online with you, although I will have to create a new character. The LVL caps of the online aspect of the game prevents my LVL 230 character to interact with players below LVL 200 and above LVL 260.
