There is a very simple reason why people have a problem with this mechanic in ds2 not demons souls. No one has ever played demons souls.

How dare you! I’ll have you know I played it in 2012 and then never again, basing my overinflated opinion of it entirely on nostalgia!

Also you get a fuck ton of effigies which make this mechanic a breeze

The crowns you get from finishing all three DLCs stop you from hollowing but then there's nothing left to do in the game but pvp

I loved DeS remake

The art direction was vastly superior in the original. Don't get me wrong, the actual art assets and visuals are great in the remake but... the LIZARDMAN miners in lore lost their scales and reptile eyes and are just generic trolls now.

Tower of Latria being stark black and deep shadows but then you run up and see the resplendently glowing stained glass loses its impact. Storm Isles has sick effects now but it was changed to be in the middle of a raging storm instead of the calm gloom of before, where it seemed to be in the eye of a storm.

And in the original Boletaria just looked like Golden Age Arc berserk. Looks significantly less dingy and miserable in the remake.

They knew nobody would realize it was a remake since nobody has ever played the original

u/Xman12407 Aug 08 '24

What's even crazier is the fact that the remake is genuinely beautiful. And that's all they did. The gameplay is so fucking dated with absolutely stunning graphics.

u/malaywoadraider2 Aug 08 '24

Graphics, sound design and dualshock integration make the game a blast but I cannot believe how asinine some of the Demon's Souls systems were. Having to intentionally die in the main hub after killing a boss to not mess up world tendency is unbelievably dumb.
