Board 8 > is it a bad idea to play dark souls before demon?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I know story doesn't matter cause they're actually not related

But the gameplay!

I'd actually like to know this as well. I've already beaten Dark Souls, and bought Demon's Souls because of how much I enjoyed it, but I just can't get myself to play it over other games.

If you're planning to play them both then you might as well start with Demon's Souls, but I guess it doesn't really matter since Dark Souls isn't so unbelievably better that you can never go back. It's definitely better, but not makes-its-predecessor-unplayable better.

Dark Souls is the better game, however....I guess it doesn't matter which one you play first, but I found Demon's Souls easier so you might as well start with that.

Yeah, doesn't make the much of a difference, stories are different, areas are different, but gameplay is pretty much the same, just different weapons/spells and armor. There is only 2 NPC's from Demon's that show up in Dark.

Speaking of weapons and spells, there's a lot more variety in weapons and magic in DaS than DeS, so that could be a point of disinterest moving backwards. Can't use whips and scythes and DeS! (then again I think the whips suck?)

Yea, whips are terrible. Unless the patches made them more viable, but I doubt it.

If they make you feel hawt by wielding them then whips are doing their jobs
