I really really don’t want to like Demon Souls. I started off hating it and its evolved into a game I’ll most likely purchase…go figure.

Demon’s Souls is THE rpg for the PS3 this year. Noone should pass it up.

I hated XII, because of gambits and grinding just wasn’t fun anymore. For some reason i’m not that into WKC, i’m more hyped about Demon Souls if anything.

I’m a SE fanboy, FFXI fan and a Sony fan and I didnt like the battle system in FFXII either. Specifically Gambits. While its nice to create some intuitive auto-responses…the game darn near played itself…

What I’d like to see that evolve into is a sort of QTE option. Say a player is dying and another character wants to respond to that. Instead of telling the game to cast Cure and basically leave you out of the it all together, it be nice if it flashed up 3-4 options mapped to a different button and a time limit to choose before the response is lost. aka (square = cure) (triangle = potion) (circle = strong attack to offensive enemy)

Allowing you to choose what option is mapped to what button still leaves the creativity and strategy in tact but still allows you to be immersed into the game.

The worst part about FFXII was the fact that it was boring and uneventful. The battle system was okay but FFX’s was the best of last gen’s turnbased rpgs.
