Camera change to classic on this one? Maybe I'm tripping...
Definitely prefer the new one closer to the player.

Wasn't the reveal taken from the 30fps fidelity mode?

Re-watching footage from previous trailers and the camera on this new clip does seem to be the classic one - a bit zoomed out.
The new camera on previous clips brings all the crisp detail much closer to the player... which is what some people may be noticing as the "downgrade".
Thank god for TLOU, and all the games that are copying it.
I think that's what we saw here - the original.

He's Sony's handler for Bluepoint on this remake.

Felt like he was auditioning for Digital Foundry or something.

Yes.. but he's referred to as "sie worldwide studios creative director" implying he's a creative director for Sony. Last time I checked, Bluepoint isn't a sie studio

'So what you're saying is' Sony have bought Bluepoint?
Clear

He also directed Puppeteer, so he's more than just a technical producer.

True. I don't think Bluepoint has been bought however. He talked about Bluepoint's studio size in one of his interviews where he spilled that 65-75 people were working on it from BluePoint, with external help from SIE external aid studios. Seems like a point man to give guidelines on the project, make sure it comes to fruition, make sure the resources are there, timelines are met etc. In other words, he's not a Bluepoint employee that suddently became a Sony producer because Bluepoint got bought.
Good point.

Game looks astounding, I just wish I really enjoyed these games. I truly do.
That being said, I'd be more than willing to give it another shot. How could I not?!

I don’t see a single downgrade. The reveal was 4k30fps fidelity mode and all subsequent gameplay trailers including this one has been 4k60fps. What exactly do you mean downgrade? If anything it looks jaw dropping in its current state. If you want to see an actual downgrade you’re going to be disappointed

Maybe but then why was it running at 60fps?

In an interview I read the developer stated they never had RT in mind for the vision of this game.

This and Ratchet and Clank but I don't think I've seen any "bad looking" next gen games other than Bugsnax but that was probably on purpose.

People bustin nuts over this? It looks very good, I honestly expected more though. Not just from the graphics department but other things as well.

So beautiful. I'm genuinely envious of so many of you getting this one week earlier.
Quite surprising to see all enemy positions intact. I wonder if they addressed some doubtful design choices from the original though, like killing the red dragon BS in Boletaria 1-2, the Dragon God "boss fight" or a different cheese strats like poison cloud...

Much appreciated! But I disagree... I see this as a coat of paint, but a really cool looking paint, that is.

Also, wanted to point out that there wasn't a downgrade. But I remember reading somewhere that in earlier footage the camera was adjusted. Not sure why, maybe for dramatic effect?
Seeing the lightning strike, particle effects, etc. It looks no different from the previous videos. Just the camera is now located where players expected and preferred it. That'd be cool if that new angle was an option in the game though, just to have.

Hope they've improved some of the boss encounters and some of the stats like how armor works (not by a lot, but balancing it a bit more). I'm actually far less afraid of some gameplay tweaks. Like how they limited grass, that's a good change.
However, the big sin is lighting. Some of the areas look utterly mundane compared to Demon's Souls (PS3), a lot due to the lighting.
Just look at the video and compare to Mind Flayers on PS3:
Visibility of VoD also seems to have increased, which in my opinion sort of ruins the disorienting nature and oppressive feel of the stage.
Have they increased the lighting just for the videos or? All in all, it feels a bit soulless compared to Demon's Souls (PS3). It looks great and will probably be an addition that those who loved DS3 will be happy with, but it just feels less scary and oppressive than Demon's Souls (PS3). Most of what Demon's Souls is known for is its levels and their moods. Boss-wise, they've been rather easy, which is why I always thought Bluepoint should stay as true as possible to the original arts-wise, but improve on the gameplay elements.

The fact that it's a filter and not default is itself a problem. I've yet to see any example of the filter either in the trailers I've seen, meaning there's no guarantee that the visibility distance and lighting is affect, it might merely be a color filter for all I know. All I've seen is that it's supposed to make the game look "more like the PS3 version" and not necessarily fix these glaring flaws.
Demon's Souls was 100% atmosphere and its level design based around that. That's why it's ridiculous to remake it and fail around making that the centerpoint. Because the original bosses were literally puzzle bosses, outside of a few select ones. That's why I hoped Bluepoint would focus on fixing outdated bosses (as in being far too easy) and gameplay elements.

You can't die before your death
The player really suck. surprised he/she didn't die sooner. I remember DS is more punishing than this. Even the boss gives very clear feedback to move away yet they kept attacking, I was like what!! "Welcome to the real Demon Souls'' ? more like welcome to amateur hour.
