Dark Souls to be 1.5x larger than Demon’s Souls

Quote :

Dark Souls is From Software’s unofficial sequel to its PlayStation 3 exclusive Demon’s Souls. According to Game Director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, despite being an unofficial sequel, you can expect the two titles to offer up similar gameplay that also includes vast changes to make the experiences a bit different than one another. While Demon’s Souls was about traversing certain levels in order to reach an objection, Dark Souls will allow the user to explore the world uninterrupted in order to create his or her own unique adventure.

However, that’s not the only change being implemented as the world around our hero has grown exponentially as well. Apparently, the world is roughly one and a half times larger than Demon’s Souls as well — which should make for a much longer gaming experience than the previous one.

they also said that Dark Souls wont be as difficult as the first one.

I hope it has different difficulty levels. So far it sounds awesome.

Sounds awesome, never played Demon Souls.

Awesomeness man. I didnt play the first game but I'LL PICK THIS UP!!!!!!

I really liked the gameplay in Demon's Souls. What was so cool about it was how realistic it was. Rolling away from attacks was slow, like it would be in real life (unless you're wearing no armor). The weapons had a sense of weight to them as well.

The combat was really cool.

Which is actually really awesome because they're doing it for their fans rather than dumbing it down for the casuals.

Zero interest in this game. I like a challenge, but after hearing the complaints from your average gamer, like myself, about how difficult Demos's Souls's was ala Yahtzee, don't think I'd even rent it.

Its difficulty was way overhyped. The key to beating it was spamming roll with under 50% encumbrance.
