I saw mention of this in the main Demon's Souls thread, but the latest post in there was back in Feb.; figured this game deserved it's own thread seeing as how it's coming up in a few weeks.
I recently got a triple and have been co-oping through DS with a friend while we sit in XBL party chat. I'm loving DS, but I'm one who tries to play games that I like a lot pretty thoroughly. The more I read up on this game, the more complicated things seem. Now that I'm getting curious about unique items and how to get them, I'm wandering into the Tendency mechanics of DS and I'm starting to realize that I'm just not going to be able to even scratch the surface on this game before Dark Souls drops. So I'm just enjoying it for what it is now knowing I'll probably never play through it multiple times or see everything.
At any rate, I've been reading up on Dark Souls and it looks to need just as much time and dedication, if not more so, than DS. Plus, even though I'm having trouble finding any official news on the game, from what I've read on message boards they've disabled party chat for the 360 version of the game. I guess they're really dedicated to this vision they have for this game/series. I plan on getting it on 360 regardless, but me and my friends may just have to party chat on PS3 or something. Kind of lame.
Even still, I'm starting to rethink my game purchasing over the next couple of months just because of this game. I'm questioning whether I should try and keep up with the majority of these triple-A games coming out or just dedicate all my gaming time to Dark Souls when it drops and pick up the rest of the stuff later on. Not sure yet. But Demon's Souls is that good to make me think like this. Shame I was so LTTP on this.
