Game Prep

Stupefying heat continues and now begins the set up for the fabled Demon’s Souls “super-grind.”  In DS Nerd-Speak, this means pushing World 4 to pure black world tendency, grinding up a character enough to get six magic slots for casting both Soul Thirst and Soul Sucker, and then getting ready to hit up a Black Phantom over and over again for an obscene amount of experience points and a 1 in 200 chance at a rare “pure bladestone.”

Trust me, this all makes sense to the hardcore game nerds familiar with the title.
