When I first played it I was all, "Wow! This is hard! You have to be dedicated to beat this game! And the multiplayer thing is so unique!"
But now I've been playing it, I've gotten better, and... meh.
Honestly? The mechanics and concept is good, but the plot, levels, and enemies are just so... GENERIC.
You have a fantasy kingdom that got invaded by demons! The remnants of a civilization at its peak! A few survivors struggling not to have their souls consumed!
And the best you can do is generic medieval levels, with skeletons and zombie bad guys!? Knights who say "thee" and "thou" a lot!?
If any effort had gone into the plot and characters of this game, it could have been awesome. I mean, even Diablo 1 had better story and characters than these.
But now... I'm just bored. I've beaten the first bosses of the first three levels, and I don't really care enough to keep going.
The combat isn't even that difficult, once you get the hang of it- it's just unforgiving. So it's not like you have to be a master of swordplay and blocking, you just have to be able to not get hit much (if that makes any sense).
Bah! Good thing I'm playing Mafia on the RP board- it's much more fun...

I amuse myself.
Demon's Souls is... disappointing

It's not about the plot.

It's more... the presentation. You walk into a room. Oh, there's the boss.

They do have some good music- especially when played by an orchestra *NM*
