    Game » consists of 14 releases. Released Sep 22, 2011

    A quasi-sequel to From Software's action-RPG Demon's Souls, set in a new universe while retaining most of the basic gameplay and the high level of challenge. It features a less-linear world, a new checkpoint system in the form of bonfires, and the unique Humanity system.

    Now that the game's been out for a good week what classes have you guys stuck with and has it been working out for you? And I don't mean just tell me the names the game gave you in the beginning give me some details.

    I'm rolled a 2H wielding warrior in honor of Berserk's Guts.

    Sorry if this thread has already been made I looked around a bit and couldn't find any.

    I have three I'm switching between. A strength focused pyromancer, a glass cannon sorcerer pure magic type, and a str focused faith guy.

    There was a thread like this somewhere, but whatevs

    I picked the cleric, but I'm building the stats kind of like what I consider a paladin. Working on building up strength mainly right now.

    Really wish there was more maces. So far I've only seen 2 (the one cleric starts with which is bad ass and a spiked one you can loot fairly early but isn't as good as the cleric starting one). I'm sure there's more (hopefully) later but just sayin'.

    I chose and stuck with the Warrior. Weapon wise I use the Drake Sword because thats the best thing iv'e found so far, and it's fairly early on. Iv'e hit a few dead ends but there's always a weak spot in the game, somewhere.

    Yea i'm playing a hunter primarily fighting with arrows but also using the drake sword if they get too close. That thing is crazy strong.

    @CornBREDX: I was actually thinking of doing a paladin sword/shield on my next play through. Is he working out alright for you? The thought of casting holy shit on my blade before going into battle is really appealing.

    @hungrynun: I love it, and I find it very satisfying. I also feel he hits pretty damn hard with the mace (I have it upgraded to +5 because basically its the best weapon I've seen other then the drake sword which I cant upgrade yet anyway and I hate using it cus everyone does =P). I haven't been able to cast anything on my weapon yet but I am still just into lower undead burg and I haven't really looked into it much yet.

    But ya, so far I love it.

    I choose Knight, I have the crystal shield, with the drake sword, the gold-hemmed armor (which is badass looking) and I just learned the soul arrow spells so I could fight the Butterfly boss easier. I'm currently at 29 strength and I really want to get to 50 so i can use the dragon axe but that's gonna take a while.
