Anyone on here got this game? and if so post your PSN details
(my ID is OranMcGovern and I have the PAL version)
for those that don't I'll do a quick summery of what the game is like

It's a Japanese made western style action RPG with arcade elements in it and a fantasy setting. One big thing to note is that the games learning curve is very brutal, I dislike calling it hard but the fact is most people will die a lot when they first pick it up. It also has multiplayer in the form of phantoms which can join your world to help you defeat the various bosses in the game(blue phantoms) or invade your world with the mission to kill you before you finish the level(black phantoms).

I quite like this game so please feel free to discuss it

I believe you are mistaken. Th game prob has one of the greatest levels of difficulty than any other game i have ever played.

I concur. Plus the difficulty jump from the first to second playthrough is brutal.
can't remember what my PSN ID is though.

Oh and my version is the asian one so I probably can't play with anyone anyway.

EDIT: PSN ID is inter_tonberry

Having played the game a lot I believe it's just a matter of knowing the patterns of the various enemies and what they are capable of(the best way to learn that is fighting them and can end up killing you tho )

That said, I think 4 simple rules will reduce how many times you die first time through the game.
1: heal after every fight
2: only engage 1 enemy at a time if possible(use a ranged weapon to get their attention)
3: tank hp
4: keep your block up against new enemies

Another useful resource is the demons souls english wiki it has tones of useful info.

certainly those rules can help, but its still an insanely hard game, where one mistake can (and often will) kill you.

I'm liking the sound of this. Knew about the game but never bothered to check it out.
