| Words Of Wisdom said: This game got a 9/7/7/6 from Famitsu. Seems mediocre. |
The 6 was predictably from someone who thought the game was too hard. Denegeki gave it 95/85/85/85. The fan and critical response to the game has been overwhelmingly positive. Hasn't famitsu handed out some questionable and unwarranted review scores in the past? Declaring this game to be mediocre hinges on much more than a poor Famitsu review.
Here is a quote from the person who gave it a 6.
| Maria Kichiji said: 'It's super-difficult... 'Souls' are needed for everything from shopping to power ups, and the entire game is unforgiving. Even worse, there are almost no hints. Demon's Souls is far too stoic... it's not a game for everybody.'" |
...and from the person who gave it a 9.
| Paint Yamamoto said: '"This is a game you learn how to play by losing -- you'll face sudden death frequently. But! Keep playing... and you'll realize how deep it really is. If you're looking to experience rich RPG elements, by all means play Demon's Souls!!." |
