no no, i mean i haven't beaten dark souls yet but it is the same general idea as demon's souls. the game itself is really short, what makes it take a long time (first play through) is learning enemy locations/attacks/weaknesses. once you learn how to play the game, things can progress quite quickly. my first demon's souls playthough was like 60 hours. my next one was under 10 -- and i wasn't going for a speed run.

Yeah, each subsequent playthrough gets shorter and shorter. My NG+++ on Demon's Souls was about 3-4 hours, since it was just a matter of going through the levels and killing everything on sight (at that time my character was very OP too, everything went down quite fast).
On Dark Souls, it's even faster because of it's open world nature. Once you know every shortcut, you can take a trip from almost every place in the map in a couple of minutes.

yeah that's what i'm figuring out ... i should have taken that damn master key. the friend i'm "playing with" keeps bragging about it. i just have to keep telling myself -- this damn witch's ring has a use right, right?!? i'm just really glad i didn't take the binoculars lol.

You wanna hear the truth, or do you want to continue to think it has a use?

no i don't actually -- i'll plat dark souls and i know i'll have to go to a wiki site or whatever to learn every detail of the game but i'm being very careful to avoid any spoilers this first play though. the figuring it out part is a lot of why i like it. xD
also, now that i re-read your post two back ... that description of dark sould reminds me very much of how i describe super metroid; can skip bosses or take bosses in different orders as long as you know the right tricks. i knew there was a reason i'm loving it so much!
