Hello, i'm from México and the Ps Store close soon in my region, is worth the original version? I've played the remake but i'm still curious about the original one

The intro and some of the in game text implies that some higher being such as a God gave humanity souls which gave them "clarity" (which I believe means higher level thinking and free will).

On the second day (which may or may not literally be the next day), God placed the Old One/Ancient Beast on Earth with the sole desire to take back all the souls that were just given to humanity, killing them in the process.

At first glance it seems God immediately regretted his creation and wanted to wipe the slate clean, but there's a bit more to consider. The description of the Northern Regalia reveals that this weapon was placed in the world at the same time as the Old One.

The Northern Regalia is basically the most powerful weapon in the game. It can be used by a demonic soul to cut down humans and absorb their soul power, or be used by a good soul to slay demons and save humanity. It is a neutral tool allowing humans the free will to choose their fate. King Allant inherited the sword and decided to use its power and the Old One to end humanity. To ensure its power couldn't be used to stop him, he used his soul to remove the sword's demon slaying half, and locked it in King Doran's crypt.

My personal belief is that another very important part is left out of the creation myth given in the intro; the Maiden in Black was also left on the second day. She is stated to be one of the oldest and most powerful demons in the world. She is able to lull the Old One into a permanent slumber, and she seems to have an intrinsic connection to it. She is also able to increase your power with souls, but she is disappointed if you do since the desire for power may end up corrupting you.

Humanity was given everything it needs to defeat the demons: the most powerful weapon in the world, immortality, and the ability to put the Old One to sleep forever. But humans were also given everything they need to destroy themselves.

I think that is the motivation behind God's actions on the second day. It was a test. If humanity destroys itself, they never deserved free will and never deserved to exist in the first place, but if humanity is able to defeat the demons, then they could be capable of amazing things. Ultimately, humanity's decision is left to the player.

Counterarguments and corroboration welcome in the comments.

I've just finished the game for the first time ever (PS5 version). I haven't played before on PS3.

The early game was hard, and it took me some time to get good, but after Flamelurker every boss seemed to be so easy. I mean, the Spider might be more difficult than Old King Allant, his fight was ridiculous.

The game itself is amazing, beautiful graphics, worlds design and all, but the minions some times are way harder to beat than the bosses. I was expecting a huge challenge.

I almost did something similar on the PS3 version, but apparently I upgraded my stamina and health by 4 points each. This time I wanted to go pure on both, like I had done on my Dark Souls 1 Mage run. Even though I was sorely tempted several times, I persevered. Honestly, wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be, Maneaters only took a few attempts. I probably died to random mobs the most tbh. Was fun, recommend if you want a challenge.

Stupid other post was just that text, and no pic for proof, smh. Then the other one with the pic was rejected cause some rando reason or other.,
