ATTENTION: Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition coming to PC in August

[QUOTE="musicalmac"]I wonder why this is a big deal.Siamak8286

yea please do tell why you would think its not a bid deal....

I think online petitions with over 90k signatures from a game community demanding a particular game that actually ended up working happens too often for this to be a significant event

Wait... what? This is coming to the PC? Awesome. Even though I do have PS3, I prefer playing on my PC and I've been wanting this game so this is certainly good news!

From Software is actually quite a mainstream Japanese studio...they have 200+ employees.

And From Software has released two titles to the PC before, so this wasn't that much of a stretch.

They aren't mainstream in the West, where the PC market really matters.

I'm gonna laugh if Blight Town kills somebody's PC.lamprey263

[QUOTE="tenaka2"]

[QUOTE="AdrianWerner"]Is it? Hardcore PC RPG fans will propably argue it just an action game pretending to be RPG and failing at it.

Bread_or_Decide

Well it is mostly a hack n slash really.

Why the negativity? I mean, you made a thread about Baldurs Gate on iPad, when in reality it's nowhere near as much of a big deal as Dark Souls on PC is.

He also gets excited for yearly releases of Apple products, so we should probably just ignore what he said. Seems he wa trolling anyway since he won't respond to anyone

Wasn't there three?

I know I should look through this topic to see if anyone mentioned this already but, are they making the game somewhat mod capable? Oh an since this is the PC we're talking about here, wouldn't cheating be more present? Pvt_r3d

There could potentially be cheaters, but it could never be as bad as on the 360.

Apparently it uses GFWL...

Well making a trollish comment and having people respond to it but then justingnore it isn't exactly respectable.

Your comment reads "why is this a big deal" like you have no knowledge of how this game coming to PC came into fruition. Basically, a forum post turns into a petition that gains nearly 100k supporters and within months the game is announced. How many other examples are there of this happening? None that I can think of

Maybe because it will be actually playable with no FPS drops? Or full HD and above? ;)

No, I said you making a trollish comment and getting responses from it, but then ignoring it, is not respectable. I never said I would be ignoring you.

And I have already explained above on why it is a big deal that it was ported.

It's not like the game is some technical marvel, or a graphical showpiece. Mouse and keyboard will not benefit anyone, as it would with a FPS port.musicalmac

The framerate was one of the main problems with the game on consoles, from what I hear (Demon's Souls certainly has awful framerate in spots). The PC version should solve that.

As for the controls, it's a relatively complex game so a keyboard can only help. And in a dream scenario it would have a PC-specific interface.

I love this game but I'm not rebuying it.

Hopefully some DLC.

NOOOOOO! GFWL!!!!!

So the PC version isn´t only getting new bosses but new areas,new enemies,new weapons and armor and new npc´s,as well as a revamped online system?

That´s sure sounds sweet.

Edit: Ok GFWL sure makes it a bit less sweet but it´s not really a big deal lol.

Of course the framrate will be better on high-end systems.musicalmac

If they optimize it properly, the framerate will be better on low-end systems.

You really should not need anything remotely high-end to run Dark Souls.

So there's at least 3 new bosses.

• Artorius the dark knight
• The chimera
• The dragon

I love this game but I'm not rebuying it.

Hopefully some DLC.

3Guilty_4Spark3

Not really fair to console gamers... Unless it's just dlc on consoles.
