Juan Young
Where is that tutorial area supposed to be?
Daniel Harris
4K 60FPS only on PC™
Logan Cox
Somewhere in the kingdom of Boletaria as with all the other areas in the game.
Luis Howard
will it run on my fossilized i7 960? At least in 30fps 720p
Kevin Powell
nice greaves
Brandon Russell
I miss it
Demon's was the Souls game with the best atmosphere
And while the combat was a bit unrefined it did many things right that later From games did wrong
I wish Fromsoft made a knights only no fantasy game with slow and methodical combat
Matthew Bell
Doubt it. Just get a cheap ryzen like a 1600.
Isaiah Jones
The nice thing about Demon's Souls is that each area was it's own thing that evolved into different areas as you progressed through them instead of having this convoluted theme park with strange areas that somehow connect to each other but feels completely out of place in the grand scheme of things. Also, something about the lighting and that blurriness filter they had going for it really adds to this otherworldiness feeling the game has. Latria is still the best area in the whole series imo, both the prison and the tower areas with the blood swamp.
Ryan Diaz
The graphics weren't that great on a technical level, but they fucking nailed it with the overall style of the game when it came to creating a consistent and creepy atmosphere that I think only Bloodborne has managed to match in the other games. I'm so glad it emulates so well to be able to bump the resolution up so much.
Also my favorite area for the lore has gotta be Shrine of Storms. The fog bringing to life a bunch of myths and legends for you to fight as bosses is such a great concept.
Isaac Jones
That foliage looks nice.
Hudson Diaz
Latria was fantastic but so was Boletaria
The impression of the scale when standing on top of that fort and seeing the level start and the long road ahead was really cool
Even open-world games where you can actually walk anywhere on the map don't give off the same sense of scale as Boletarian Palace
Matthew Clark
How did they make such a good game?
Jack Cook
Zero publisher demands whatsoever. They were given complete freedom to do whatever the fuck they wanted so they went nuts.
Jackson Roberts
By not being forced to make something outside of their vision. Today, you'd never get a DeS made.
Blake Long
Why does upscaled DeS look better than the Dark Souls remaster?
Lucas Phillips
this but also, it was basically a failed project that they were about to trash it until miazaki stepped in and tried to make something out of it. Basically they had no pressure and no hopes of the game succeeding so they made whatever they wanted with.
Eli Price
Japs attempting to make western fantasy, misunderstanding half of it but filling the nonsense back up with their own fantasy turns out great somehow
Ryan Bailey
The same reason modded Dark Souls looks better than Dark Souls remaster.
Tyler Powell
Soul
Jason Jackson
The game is much more polished imo.
Ethan Thompson
Best level design of the series, it felt like a really good, layered, semi-open-semi-linear approach that always felt like you were making progress even when you were exploring nooks and crannies of any given area.
DaS1 did an admirable job at a Metroidvania approach to level design, DaS2 got pretty weird with it though I appreciate the first half of the game letting you go in any of four directions, but then Bloodborne and DaS3 got very lazy just throwing doors in every direction that "do not open from this side" and then beg for you to praise it when you find the other side 30 hours later.
William Thomas
Thanks for posting these and doing the game visuals justice, the atmosphere is so god damn gorgeous.
Logan Williams
Thanks user, I've been replaying it lately and taking lots of screenshots.
Owen James
What CPU?
Hunter Murphy
No it doesn't. Bloodborne looks 100x better than this gay shit.
Justin Rivera
2600 at base clock.
Hudson Watson
Do I still need to deal with stutter while I wait for shaders to render if I want to emulate this?
Jackson Brown
It looks nice for an early PS3 game, faggot.
>muh Bloodborne
Wasn't even being talked about.
Jack Reed
Pentium 4
Benjamin Gonzalez
Fuck you Bloodborne is the better game than gays souls
Jeremiah Roberts
>game coming out soon is made with nothing outside their vision and no publisher restrictions
>acronym is DS
Jace Campbell
The main menu music was good, everything else (especially magic) sucked.
Bentley Cook
>Bloodborne
Daniel Cox
On your first playthrough, yes. But depending on your cpu it doesn't really stutter that much. The biggest problem imo is the annoying flickering bug that's plaguing the newer builds, to fix that you have to reload your save, which is fine since loading times on the emulator is pretty short even on hdd.
Thomas Hughes
I applied the 60fps patch but the game runs at 2x speed. What am I doing wrong?
Austin James
this good?
Aiden King
>Shartborne
James Harris
Follow the instructions, apply the patch, save everything and close RPCS3. Open it again, check if all changes were saved then test game.
Absolutely. You might even lock it to 60fps.
Easton Peterson
These. It's still the best Souls game if you don't count Bloodborne. It gets a lot of shit for being unpolished (probably from people who haven't played it) but the Dark Souls games barely improved on it and were worse in a lot of the things Demon's Souls excelled at
Cooper Roberts
Only good and original game in the Souls series.
John Peterson
Jeremiah Turner
Hi demon's souls, you are my gf (female)'s favorite game.
Connor Powell
It's the best game FromSoft has made in the last 10 years.
Anthony Nguyen
You have a heard of gold user
Don't let them take it from you
Kevin Bell
good post, señor
Ian Ortiz
How did you find a Souls loving girlfriend? Did you introduce her to the series or what?
Camden Morgan
We met on Yea Forums in a vocaroo thread, traded throwaway emails and chatted about games. after a year we decided to meet, a little over a year later she moved in. We celebrated our 5 year anniversary last week.
Levi Evans
DeS is my favourite souls game.
The music, the atmosphere, the obscure lore.
I can't remember most of the other bossfights but DeS had my favourite fights
Logan Price
and you're still on Yea Forums
well man
Hudson Turner
Why is everything so green?
Sebastian Carter
What is she like? I mean, her being a Yea Forumstard and all.
Ian Stewart
Charles Carter
Cute, hope everything works out between you two and you live happily ever after.
Evan Davis
When we first met she asked if I liked demon's souls, said I hadn't tried it yet but I loved dark souls. She hesitated, then asked me how many dicks I sucked on the way to meet her. Honestly its great, we both game but we play different stuff. She usually plays on her PS4 while I play on PC. I'm phoneposting at the moment while she plays dragons dogma on my PC, I was playing sekiro earlier. We used to play ff14 together, since it has cross play between PS4 and PC, and we do non gaming stuff together a lot as well. Best thing is we are both easy going, so we just do whatever.
Alexander Cook
w8 are you saying there are actual women on this board?
Jaxon Nelson
Is her dick bigger than yours?
John Wood
Pretty sure I'd have seen it by now, but you never know.
Daniel Powell
Boletaria is one big swamp

IT'S NOT FAIR BROS
CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
Brandon Edwards
You can easily emulate Demon's Souls and it runs almost flawlessly on PC. Only Bloodborne is stuck on the Bloodbornestation 4.
Logan Foster
I never noticed he was sitting down there.
Jack Reyes
>then asked me how many dicks I sucked on the way to meet her.
Well? How many did you suck?
Hudson Bennett
Look at the top of the wall.
Gavin Bailey
It was more than a few years ago, but i'd ballpark it at a bakers dozen or less.
Isaiah Harris
I know about satsuki I always get the hiltless its my fav weapon.
Aiden Russell
demon souls is only tolerable to replay with the dupe glitch for materials
Jordan Wood
>demon's souls claymore rolling attack
take me back brehs
Gavin Lopez
>thinking about replaying the game
>remember 4-2 and 5-2 exist
Eh, maybe not
Nathan Martin
even that can't fix getting the pure bladestone
Samuel Williams
>remember 4-2 and 5-2 exist
4-2 is really short and there's nothing threatening about it.
5-2 is literally a straight walk to the boss, you don't even have to fight anything.
Logan Bell
You can shoot at him there. He just walks away though.
Elijah Walker
is this game still playable offline on a ps3?
Mason Johnson
Why wouldn't it be?
Liam Ortiz
not sure. how does the world tendency work now?
Jayden Russell
like offline
Bentley Mitchell
im getting flashbacks of cursed DBS duels
Levi Miller
yes
also thearchstones.com
Samuel Walker
never played demons souls offline so I apologize for my ignorance.
cool thanks.
Brody Allen
Fun game that spawned cancer
Matthew Johnson
why does every print of the emulated version looks so sharp and less "foggy" compared to my version, is there a setting that I missed or something?
Austin Clark
Correct. The glitch fixes FromSoft's obsession with upgrade materials being a pain to acquire. It's as if they don't realize players keep more than one weapon on them.
Isaiah Turner
go to the gpu options
Asher Perry
demons souls general threads were great no shitposting good oc and they stood on topic but dark souls made these games mainstream and ruined it.
Chase Collins
>invade 4-1 with DBS
>run to the first flight of stairs
>use running attack to throw phantoms off the cliff
good times
It's beeter to play offline because online fucks your world tendency up by making it the average on the server. Just make sure you don't die in body form in a world and you can get pure white world tendency.
Andrew Hill
Why is Flamelurker such an atmospheric bossfight, bros?
His appearance, music theme and boss area made it feel like you were descending into hell.
Nathaniel Ward
sounds good, thanks user.
Chase King
>4-2 is really short and there's nothing threatening about it.
okay
Kevin Morris
It goes down if you die in human form so if you want pure white world tendency you it's best to always just stay in soul form and wear the cling ring.
Jose Sanchez
OP here, that particular screenshot is actually rendering in 10k internally. The other screenshots are in 4k though. Also, make sure you have antialiasing set to auto and aniso filtering to 16x.
pic related is 10k cropped
Lucas Adams
Unless I'm brain dead I don't know what else to do
Lucas Bennett
bruh
Jaxson Diaz
You can literally run past them.
>1080p
that's the problem, 1080p barely improves the image. You can probably push it to 4k or 3200x1800.
Kevin Sanders
>using items
You are weak
Cameron White
Your brightness settings are too high, ruins the atmosphere and makes the crude textures/geometry even more obvious
Nolan Thompson
hey I'm not the one having troubles with normal enemies, soul remains or not
Julian Edwards
AHHH WHY DIDN"T I JUST SPEND 30 MORE DOLLARS AND GET A K VERSION
James Peterson
>Dark Souls remaster
lol
Ethan Evans
idk about the others but ds1 works great on pc
just use a game pad
Carson Cruz
>going with intel
amd stronk now
Noah Cook
I can't play it because my PC is shite. I get like 10 fps in Boletaria.
Levi Ortiz
Since Sony is bringing games to PC now I'm waiting for a bloodborne port to upgrade from my 2013 build.
Kinda sux waiting, hope it doesn't have duneuvo
Xavier Campbell
try unticking write color buffers in the gpu tab
according to the 60fps patch it could give around 20% more performance
the game will be horribly dark though, a real pain in the prison
Jaxson Harris
you actually have to have the 60fps mod
and enable the
#OPTIONAL: Disable dynamic exposure (can turn off WCB for 20% faster performance)
#Enable this if you experience flickering
under whatever version of the game you have
Oliver Nguyen
I doubt these 20% will help me.
Also, GTX960
Oliver Roberts
I miss the old Demon's Souls threads we used to have, good times
Samuel Baker
All it's going to be now is screenshots and spec posting
Mason Myers
rip
I have a 3570k at 4.4ghz and it's rough at 30fps
lots of drops when rolling through barrels and such
but other than that is feels and looks a lot better than the ps3 version
Andrew Flores
It's better than nothing, the game is still good looking
Lincoln Ortiz
and people like you complaining
Brandon Martinez
Wasn't complaining
Ian Rivera
>DeS gets a new audience thanks to emulation
>people finally realize what a derivative soulless product DaS is
we live in the best timeline
Brody Cook
boletaria hits fps the hardest so far havent had any major dips outside of it.
I think I figured it out use f12 for screenshots. I was using radeon relive to take screenshots and they would come out in 1080p but with f12 they come out in whatever you have the res scaled to.
Ryder Reed
That's how I used to feel ever since Dark Souls came out but over the years I've come to appreciate both games equally in their own separate ways. They're both fantastic games.
Parker Clark
This
Joseph Carter
>>people finally realize what a derivative soulless product DaS is
But this hasn't happened at all. Probably because the spec requirements are too high to play the game and have fun.
Nicholas Jones
The chain set in Demon's Souls is so sexy for a cleric type character. You can kinda recreate it in the other games by mix-and-matching but it's not quite the same.
Brandon Sanchez
Goddamn this game had the best fucking atmosphere.
They don't make em like they use' to.
Adam Hill
tbf Dark Souls was a good spiritual sequel, it fixed a bunch of stuff mainly the healing item, expanded weapons, armors, interconnected levels in a unique way... it was a good refining. The problem started with making DaS into a franchise
Carson Brooks
Ryan Wood
I was disappointed in DaS with how horrible that chain armor looked and to make things worse the thorolund clerics set was not available to the player
Hunter Nelson
Couldn't give 2 fucks until shields can be rendered
Jaxon Richardson
Demon's Souls had the best armor sets.
Jaxon Scott
Yeah the chain set in the Dark Souls games is a complete travesty. It sucks you can't get the Elite Cleric set too at least not without using cheat engine like I did.
Jaxon Powell
bloodborne more like buttborne(poop)
Xavier King
due to the blurry ps3 graphics i thought all the other monumentals were shriveled up husks for some reason
Anthony Gomez
you are one of the best games i've ever played, DS1 and BB are slightly better, but i love you
Elijah Ward
Latria was peak atmosphere for me.
John Ortiz

Matthew Diaz
>Killzone 3 is still shit on rpcs3
Liam Cruz
I miss how broken magic was in this series. There were so many damage enhancements you could stack when using an already powerful spell that it was like having unlimited crystal soul spears.
Charles Torres
Peak Fromsoftware. Boletaria feels just like it came out of Fumito Ueda and Miyazaki. Truly a soulful experience
Wyatt Young
>The biggest problem imo is the annoying flickering bug that's plaguing the newer builds
Is that why the sound is stuttering again? I thought my PC was just overloaded, I forgot to think about regressions even though this happened before.
Ryan Parker
Best Souls game.
Angel Cruz
The audio will only stutter if your cpu isn't fast enough. Are you playing in 60fps? Also, make sure you have the right settings, my audio was stuttering until I fixed my settings. You should aslo try enabling time stretching, it sound weird when you get a long stretch but it's better than stuttering.

Will I be able to run Demon's Souls at okay framerates? I have a Ryzen 5 2600, an RX 570 and 16GB DDR4
William Evans
The evil ending theme in Demon's Souls was the best in the series imo, even better than gwyn's theme. youtube.com
4k30fps locked or 4k60fps with drops to 45 in the more intensive areas. I recommed playing at 30fps locked because it's smoother and dropping frames at 60fps is really bad because gamespeed is tied to framerate so when it drops the game slows down.
Robert Morales
It wasn't happening at 60fps for a few days but I've been updating RPCS3 a lot on a ccount of MGS4 and before that just because. I think this might be a regression desu. Time stretching seems neat though I haven't heard of this setting. It'll remove the microstutter in the audio?
Hunter Anderson
>It'll remove the microstutter in the audio?
probably, it's worth a try.
Levi Edwards
The idea of music stretching is somehow comfy, I might even try to lower FPS by increasing resolution.
Mason Rogers
Audio and music plays at normal speed regardless of fps and gamespeed.
Michael James
>no hands just bones sticking out
damn the detail missed on the ps3
Cooper Jackson
I have a ryzen 3 2200 and rx 570, will it run at 60 fps?
Asher Nelson
scrub here
going for pure white character and world tendency and I already died in the tutorial, do I restart?
Nicholas Hughes
No.
Tutorial doesn't count.
Matthew Adams
>reading a guide before playing the game
disgusting souls babby
Jeremiah Lee
can you get a screenshot of that ball of bodies in the valley?
Jordan Martin
I had to cave and look shit up after not knowing how in the hell to open that one door to the left in Boletaria. How was I supposed to know it's because I died in human form?
Hudson Jackson
Don't bother with world tendency stuff on your first playthrough. Character tendency is useless as it only affects online gameplay.
Ian Myers
“What’s the hurry? Where you off to.”
If this phrase sounds familiar, you need to quit cheating and play the game like a real man.
Carter Hernandez
>he doesn't mash x to make it faster

Benjamin White
she cute
Kayden Turner
Now that I know to just play in soul form the whole time I'll be alright. It triggered my autism knowing I wouldn't get all those shiny items because I fucked up my playthrough.
Christian Brown
I have so much good shit to say about this game. Despite all the bladestone farming and other pain in the ass shit, I got the Platinum trophy for it before Dark Souls was even announced because I loved the game so much I wanted to experience everything it had to offer. It's a shame I actually wound up not liking the Dark Souls series.
Carson Jackson
>Now that I know to just play in soul form the whole time I'll be alright.
Don't do that, you can get the world tendency stuff on your ng+ and most of the stuff you get is useless anyways.
Bentley Anderson
I don't need to, its perfection speaks for itself.
John White
I played into this guy's hands intentionally when I first played because I wanted to see what would happen. I had already played every other game in the franchise so I knew what would happen but still.
Colton Hughes
Isn't that what the blacksmith says when you walk away?
What are you talking about?
Julian Green
Best Souls game by a wide margin. I've got fond memories of Shrine of Storms PVP and being a total dickwad with my Mirdan hammer faith build.
I wish Sony would re-release it in HD for the PS4 or at least make it available somewhere outside of their shitty streaming service since my PS3 shat the bed and I'm a filthy macfag so emulation isn't an option.
John Cruz
The duplication glitch
Julian Barnes
Childhood is thing tower of latria is the best map
Adulthood is realizing Shrine of Storms is the best map
Ethan Flores
I don't know what you mean. There's a debug mode though for noclip(very hard to use though lol).
Josiah Hill
my fault its in latria the ball of bodies that shoot magic rays I think its in the swamp.

I have fond memories of DeS but that fight with astrea and her guardian would always hold a special place in my heart.

Not as good as DS3, Bloodborne or the first half of DS1, but it has a very nice visual style and i respect it for carving out this genre.
Nolan Brown

Blake Miller

Sebastian Davis
Liam King
Hudson Scott
I always thought it was a straw hat on the PS3.
Hudson Ramirez
Same. I mean Dark Souls as a series more or less blows almost every other contemporary action rpg out the water, but compared to Demon's it just feels inadequate. The lore was made convoluted but without the same feeling of desolation and solemnness, and the overall atmosphere just feels inferior.
Robert Moore
cope
Daniel Lopez
Must be awful without the online components.
Blake Turner
Will I be able to emulate it at 1440p/60fps?
Benjamin Perez
A shame 4-2, 5-1 and 5-2 are shit stages, and then there's certain terrible bosses like the Dragon God.
Zachary Davis
Probably.
Andrew Hill
why? I played most of the time offline on the ps3 to avoid fucking up my world tendency and the online was pretty much dead a year after Dark Souls released.
yes
Sebastian Cruz
Why is the music for every other level shit compared to bolteria?
Angel Martin
this game can run in my potato pc?
Core i3

You can run through a lot of enemies, but is that really in the spirit of the game?

Jayden Rodriguez
a ryzen 1600 is $100, you're better off upgrading your cpu than buying a console just for a couple of games.

it was good but it had too much backtracking to be considered the best. atmosphere was great though
