    Demons' Souls is the last pure gaming experience I can remember. It was seriously crazy on GameFAQs, people had no clue what the hell world tendency was, how to forge some of the weapons, what certain items did. The 4-1 Crystal Falchion was like Mew under the SS Anne but real. How the hell did the Blueblood Sword deal damage? Who knows!

    I was calling up my cousin to ask how you beat Flamelurker, and he was telling me "if you go off to the side near the end of 1-1, there's a dragon there that you can run past to get a 100% fire resist shield, but you need to have 18 STR and..." Old Monk was a boss played by a real person! It was great.

    e: Other things DeS had: a Scraping Spear that did immense durability damage and was purely made to grief in PvP, a boss that had an attack that literally stole a Soul Level (and you could learn it for PvP), Maneater(s), a boss so hard everyone dealt with it by peppering arrows through a crack in the pre-boss fog door.
