Atlus released this first commented Walktrough video of Demon's Souls, a game that definitely requires a long explanation to grasp how deep its gameplay can be.
MrWhite Instead people consult the oracles on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube. All of them with bastardised and warped views of the world driven by decades of repressed bigotry as a hand me down at dinner. (20 Hours ago)
MrWhite both on economic systems and a base understanding of the political spectrum. All you need to do is read a couple of books about history or biographies on prominent historical figures and events (20 Hours ago)
MrWhite Look at what we've done with it instead. And you're 100% correct about the public now paying more through taxes and tariffs. That would have been obvious to anyone with a modicum of education (20 Hours ago)
MrWhite What's alarming with these two things is that on their own, they're two amazing things. The internet should have been a great gift to humanity in driving it forward. (20 Hours ago)
MrWhite @jmd749: I strongly believe the internet and widespread misinformation tools in the combination of smart phones and social media have done serious damage (20 Hours ago)
jmd749 now tired people are glad for it to be "over" now with both sides convincing us that boris' deal is better than no deal. 2 sides of the same stinking coin, with the poor getting shafted as per usualol (1 Day ago)
jmd749 I remember them wearing their remain buttons in the City with every confidence it won't go ahead, then the drama of camron leaving, may leaving,and boris exhausting the people with all the brexit talk (1 Day ago)

I don't know much about this game and this "walkthrough" did nothing to get my interest juices flowing.

i got to get this game!
Let me make it crystal clear. Imagine you're playing Oblivion and you come across a boss. You die, but before that you realised that Fire was working against the boss. So once you die, you can leave a note on the ground. So, when some other player comes through that area, they can read your hint and even rate that hint if it was actually useful.
You can even see ghost replays. This game is adding online stuff to a single-player RPG. That's an immense step forward.

The notes being left, how does that work exactly? is it only by people that own the game that are on your friends list? or people top of the leader boards? or just random peoples hints generated as you play?
The game merely asks that you stay awake and learn. You will die a lot at first because you (not your character) are inexperienced – but there are no impassable barriers here. The combat system isn’t very flashy (nothing is) but it is certainly good. Your move set may seem limited to some action titles but every single move in your arsenal is important, which is more than can be said about everyone’s favourite button mashers. Each weapon handles uniquely, each enemy does will ask some amount of pattern recognition, there are lots of customisation options - it’s all there.
In addition to being the best RPG so far this generation it is also, strangely enough, the best survival horror. All the tension building and atmosphere in the world cannot beat getting to the end of a 30 minute crawl through a blooded dungeon and stopping dead in your tracks as a set of red eyes stare back at you from pitch blackness. Death is so significant you actually fear for your avatar, something I haven’t felt in a modern title for a long time.

These monsters aren't retardedly overpowered or anything. You just need to think before you act, which apparently is highly uncommon as of late.
