It's never coming to PC. Stop crying already.
Already is. RPCS3. I played it on PS3 in 2010 either way though. ;)
It's probably a shit version, and it's what you shit sucking leech faggots deserve. I'm glad that developers fuck up all your PC ports and you have to pay thousands of dollars to get anything running above 60 fps. Fuck your whore mom and rot ya spoiled cunts. You deserve nothing but pain.

Imagine seething this hard because you can only play the inferior ps5 version. Sad.
He's doing a bit

Yeah, this bit:

This video is a detailed analysis and comparison between the Demon's Souls PS5 remake and the original PS3 japanese version.
I explain in detail why the remake's changes ruin the original game's story.


Everything about the Demon's Souls Remake highlights how simultaneously out of touch and arrogant westerners can be. At the same time they fail to understand much of the nuance and subtle storytelling intertwined with the details and elements they dislike, but they also try to replace them with their own vision which falls flat and feels completely unmemorable.

From Soft slapped some random item descriptions in Demon's Souls and soul autists created their headcanon around it. If you disagree with their headcanon they accuse you of "disrespecting the game".

They put their own vision in the game because this is the purpose of a remake. Japanese creators hate when people just copy & paste their works. IIRC From Soft asked Blue Shift to change even more things but Blue Shift refused.

Fanboys are the only who cry about these things.

Turning the wierd jazzy score of the original into God of War slop already demonstrates all the priorities Bluepoint had.

The visual changes seem bad too stylistically speaking but the soundtrack is a veritable act of vandalism.

Is not only item descriptions, is visual design, art, armour, voices, sounds, architecture, music, atmosphere and even the general feeling of the game was changed. Is literally not the same game and I don't see why anyone would defend it.

It's because you are usually too busy not dying to pay attention to the soundtrack. FromSoft scores also got less distinctive after DS2 which cemented the idea it's mostly just background decoration but there's more meat to their older soundtracks and i think Demon Souls has the one that's most distinctive. Even DS1 if i listen to the music on its own it sort fades into the background in my head but each track in Demon Souls just stands out in my brain with quite a bit of clarity and i never even played the game. I think out of all their games it is the best one.

It is. I love all the games but it's the best one (along with Sekiro and possibree Bloodborne desu). It's a 3D version of a dungeon crawl. It's truly 3D King's Field.

It's more important to have a critical outlook of our own community and mentality than any other, lest you'll enclose yourself in your own circlejerk. The fact that the western approach to a remake is wipe something they can't understand after categorizing it as silly, not worth preserving and replace it with shallow bombastic art direction that could fit any other game shows a vey superficial approach and says a lot about the cultural and artistic bankruptcy of the West. If you are unable to appreciate art, you are also unable to create any of it.
Hollywood can't conceieve a fictional super advanced African society as anything different than LA but skyscrapers have straw roofs and baobabs where people still dress like tribals and the next leader is chosen through a 1vs1 duel to the bitter end and rules with no checks and balances.

How do you expect these people to write something like the Boletaria, Lordran, Yharman or the Lands Between?

This is true, I never notice soundtracks in action games but I noticed this one. It's partly that it's much, much better than all of its successors, but also that most of the boss fights are less intense and have some sort of trick to figure out, which they give you time to do. Everything about the boss fights in this game is brilliant and From never did as well again (with the exception of Sekiro, but that's a different thing).

I still want the PS5 version ported to PC. Better engine, better netcode for invasions, better sound design and animations. Even the most autistic individuals will be happy they got it since it's only a couple retextures away from being the definitive version.




If you look at this comparison and still say you prefer the left side you're out of your fucking minds. I've been saying it for years, From should've cut a deal with Sony to get their hands on Bluepoint's assets and engine. If they're gonna rehash assets and stay on the same engine for the next 20 years, I'd prefer Bluepoint's.

Right is complete trash. They turned Vanguard into dollar store Mancubus... vomit inducing.

Are you trolling? I literally don't want to step foot in the right when the left exists and oozes soul, atmosphere, art direction, subtlety, art...Gotta be joking.

They changed the artistic direction for worse in the remake, no debate.
We should ban all these woke retards from codex.

I´m glad we have RPCS3 to preserve the definitive edition.

It's literally the same game but with better multiplayer.
