Unfortunately Demon's Souls hasn't aged well.
I feel like Bluepoint should've changed way more things than they did; this game is more than 10 years old, of course a lot of mechanics are gonna be bad and old.
Some changes wouldn't have touched the "original experience": major quality of life improvements were necessary (like the atrocious inventory carry weight); and they could've added way more armour sets and weapons (that weren't limited to pre-orders...).
Also, let's be honest the world tendency system is just straight up garbage and frustrating; that shit literally ruins entire runs after one mistake.
Other aspects of the game like the enemy AI, bosses and level design are just products of its time so there's not a lot to say about that.
I was left pretty disappointed unfortunately, nothing really clicked for me here.
