Demon’s Souls Guide Reveals Perfect Run, Explains How To Be A Jerk

By Spencer . October 5, 2009 . 7:01pm

Atlus’s Demon’s Souls strategy guide, which is bundled with the deluxe edition, is fairly elaborate. The guide is about the size of a PS3 box and it contains tons of charts. Just like Enterbrain’s guide, it also has a perfect run walkthrough.

Demon’s Souls has events that differ depending your character and world tendency, but there is a way to see all of the events in a single game and the guide explains it. The book also has a regular walkthrough in case the perfect run sounds too taxing.

One of the funnier points the guide makes is you can hunt and steal Crystal Lizards by entering other people’s games. Atlus’ official guide says, “if you’re a jerk, you can hunt down Crystal Lizards during your invasion in hopes of depriving that player of some of their drops.” Watch out for blue phantom thieves, people!

P90X prevents me from playing many games, but this will be the one I actually play

And Demon's Souls gets slightly more evil... By the time the average gamer crowd clears the game, there will be scalps lying around aplenty...

The "Jerk" comment is exactly why I will not be playing online in the US servers until at least my second playthrough. Most of the Asian players, not all, are respectful and wouldn't do that.

Well, on Normal Difficult, the easiest way to complete it without dying is being a Paladin, Soul Arrow probaly owns everything easily, lol.

But on Hard Difficult, enemies get a nice Magic Defense Boost, ..., *cry*.

This game is so mean. q_Q

One of the PR guys from Atlus posted a video on youtube a couple weeks ago of the unboxing of the Deluxe Edition, which was really cool. He shows everything off and I was instantly pleased. I'm also glad to know I'm not the only weirdo that loves that new smell of games.

There are lots of ways to be a jerk in this game (I've done a ton of reading on it in anticipation, which is rare because I usually don't like spoilers), but I've never seen mention of THIS way. That's just wrong. Doesn't it give you the option to refuse a Blue Phantom when they try to come into your game?

Mr_Qoo, do you happen to have the link to that YouTube video? I'd love to check it out. =)

Also, I really need to order this game ASAP, but have to wait for my next pay period.
Hopefully there are still some deluxe copies left by next week!

There's a video review on Amazon by a general user, w/ the creepy gothic theme in the background too. I love the robust package for this deluxe edition, as Atlus pulled out all the stops, but I don't think this game is for me at all..

I had posted the vid yesterday, but it got blocked, I believe. It's no worries, it was probably my computer locking up. If you really want to see it, just go to youtube and look up "Demon's Souls Unboxing" and I'm sure it'll be there.
