Dark Souls.

Who has it, and if anyone has it, who has broken an electronic device because of it?

If anyone doesn't have it/wants info on it, I'd be more than happy to share said info on it.

I'd write a review on it or something, but I am busy playing it.

P.S. They do not use lube.

I'm currently playing Demon's Souls.

If you like Demon's Souls, then I'm sure you'd like Dark Souls, same gameplay style and same concept. Few differences, like the addition of factions, or Covenants, which give you different items/abilities, also no looting healing items and carrying 'em around, now you have a set number (can be increased) for a particular area. Increase is for that particular area. Also no more mana. Spells have a certain amount of times they can be used between bonfires.

A set number of healing items and spell casts is just brutal. Is Dark Souls like Demon Souls to where each enemy dies within 1-3 hits, and consequently, so do you?

[Vy'drach]

Depends which enemies you hit and with what weapon. I can drop most enemies pretty easily, but there are those enemies that take a lot of damage.

For example, there's some clam guys on a particular beach, who take a minimum of six hits with a weapon made from a boss's soul (+4 too), where as they can two hit me while I'm wearing the heaviest armour in the game. Pretty much, if not actually, one hit me with a particular ability, too, which also inflicts serious damage on all your equipment.

Ah ok so they did keep that aspect to some respect. That's what made Demon Souls so agonizingly brutal.

How about the physical body vs. your spirit body? When you die, do you come back as a ghost that only has half your maximum health?

[Vy'drach]

Not quite, you have full HP in "Hollow" form, which is basically zombie form, as everyone is now undead, but your drop rate and resistances are higher in human form, and certain things require human form.

However, being cursed, while instantly one hitting you, does reduce your HP to half, and if you get cursed again without curing it, reduces it to a quarter, and then an eighth.

So hollow form is the new spirit form?

What curses you and how do you cure it?

[Vy'drach]

Various enemies curse you, the first you'll likely encounter are frog type things, and as for how to remove it, using a special item. It's expesive or hard to farm, however, as the only enemies that drop it are few (only three of them), and are hard to kill but kill you easily. A weapon I can hit most other enemies for over 200 damage with one handed, only hits them for around 45 damage, and they can two or three hit me.

There are, however, enemies that require you to be cursed to kill them (or to use an item on your weapon, but it's only temporary, it's expensive, and it can't be put on special weapons).
