Dying in Demon Souls for Demon's Souls (2020)

Dying in Demon Souls

Shortly after making it through the tutorial stage of Demon Souls you will be killed by the Vanguard Demon. This is supposed to happen and dying will be a common occurance as you progress through the game. It does however have it's benefits, each additional run you make through an area you have done before should be easier as you will know enemy placements and you will be able to sharpen your combat skills a little bit each time. It also gives you the opportunity to collect more soul currency and if you manage to reach the location where you last died you will be able to retrieve the souls you lost.
