Wish FromSoftware would add these additional contents to the existing console versions down the line.

[QUOTE="3Guilty_4Spark3"]

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

Hopefully some DLC.

Oh wow...there's more than I thought.

the PVP matchmaking system has me excited. I spent so much time trying to summon my friends into my world. I would be nice if I could just select their name and bring them in

^^ PC exclusive? no way :lol:lawlessx
You know,this whole thing reminds me of Loosey trying to claim ownage by saying the 360 version of TW2 was getting exclusive content when the PC version is in fact getting the exact same thing day 1,and now it´s Dark Souls,a game that he praises so much and bashed the PC for not having it is now coming to the PC with a ton of content apparently actually exclusive to the PC version! :o

I wonder how big is the hole poor old Loosey is hiding into,haven´t seen him lately around these parts. :P

Yeah I'm not a fan of GFWL, but I'm just too happy that a PC version is actually coming to get mad at this

GFWL is fine. Stop crying. It's just extra software. Everyone always cries when there's something extra. It happened with Steam, it happened with Origin and it happened with GFWL.

I'm pretty sure LoosingEnds is happy it is coming to PC. As a huge Dark Souls fan he should be glad more people get to enjoy it.

Oh yeah,I´m sure he´s really happy with that. >.>

He was only a fan of the game because it was on the 360 and not the PC. Just like he only started getting interested in Witcher 2 when he thought the 360 version was getting exclusive content

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.

Arach666
You are correct Arach and with the added KB/M support we get the best version by miles.

GFWL isn't terrible anymore. It had it's period of sucking, just like Steam did, but it works fine now. If people aren't going to buy it because of GFWL that's just sad.

Yeah that isn't going to happen.

GFWL isn't even that bad. It works fine now. It's not like how it used to be.

People should just be happy they are getting a PC version.

Most developers dump it as it's a pain.

My guess is that using GFWL makes porting from the XBox 360 a lot easier since GFWL integrates a lot of features that are already present in XBL.

They probably used it becuase they don't want to spend a ton of money trying to port it and the game was never truely designed for the PC.

As someone who plays gears MP everyday.. GFWL is still a major problem:?

Expect plenty of:

  • disconnections
  • CTD
  • lost saves

Everyone of my gears friends, including myself, is afraid of opening GFWL while playing because of the chance of crashing... thats how bad it is.

Why does the game have to come out a week before I'll be going back to school? Also, I don't mind GFWL after I've been using it for Arkham City. You don't need an extra client, and I'm sure the game will still be offered through Steam like Arkham City is.

i guess you'll have to agree to disagree with the PEOPLE THAT MADE THE GAME, then. you obviously know better than they do!

i mentioned it in the other thread - i'm pretty sure Capcom has been doing GFWL for all of their PC games for the last 3-4 years, it's just that no 'dark souls PC fan'-types noticed until now

ouch, swing and a miss. I guess using GFWL can be forgivable considering they originally didn't have plans for a PC version in the first place. They're probably just ignorant of PC gaming in general.

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

Of course the framrate will be better on high-end systems. So those few gamers won't suffer through a handful of annoying framerate dips. It's not like the game, in its current state, is nearly unplayable on consoles. It's not without flaws, but they certainly don't detract from the experience. It's not going to be a very different experience.

Enough for me to get it again on PC this time. With new environments, new enemies, new bosses, new PVP mechanics etc.

YES! I actually held off on buying Dark Souls for my 360 because I just had too many games to play for my PC. Now this baby gets to run on my PC! The PC gods knew it was coming and whispered for me to wait. I know it!
