In the next update you won't even need to turn the switch on, we will do it for you, all you need to do is have an internet connection, purchase our turn-switch-on DLC and Awesome-Light DLC. Welcome to the future!
My answer is :
Screw DRM, it helps none, in fact, it hepls piracy grow! We consumers just want to buy a product and use it NOT to purchase a license to use a product!
Dark Souls 2 is ours (last gen), for next gen i'm hoping for a Souls Collection with improved textures and framerate, and of course Dark Souls 3 (and maybe a PS4 exclusive Demon's Souls 2)!
The harvesting of souls will start in a couple of weeks... I "pity" the new souls that think the new Dark Souls is easy!
A boss that stalks and hunts you down sounds like an awesome idea! From Software at it's best!
This is very smart strategy, instead of constant dread they will build hope then smash it into complete and utter desperation. Now that's really soul-crushing!
Don't be sad friend, the Souls series are not for everyone or else it would get watered down. People will join us when they are ready for a real challenge. Other games live and die by their marketing strategy, the Souls series survive by being brilliant and constantly improving their gameplay, setting, and scope. Long live From Software!
Dark Souls 2 FTW!
If this doesn't win best game of last gen and life achievement award then humanity has failed :-)
You, sir, win the internet!
This is the kind of passion Dark Souls fans feel, it's great to know that the people who work in the game feel the same!
I'll be playing it on the ps3 but i'm glad to see so many awaiting the pc version (specially after Dark Souls port). It's healthy for From Software to test new waters.
You couldn't play Demon's souls on ps3 because it was a console version? The pc version of dark souls unmoded played like ass! Stop being a pc elitist without the ps3 you would have never had Demon's/Dark souls! Deal with it!
"crap version" is a bit much. The series started on the ps3 and i'm buying it for the ps3. I don't care about mods or "improved graphics", i want to play on my living room with a ps3 controller on my hand!
P.S. It looks beter on my ps3 games collection instead of in a steam list!
Demon's souls started everything so that's that but Dark souls improved everything (specially the camera and lock-on system). The story was deeper the controlls were tighter and there was more variety all around. With that said, Demon's souls came first was exclusive, had events and won a lot of awards!
I meant in the comments not the article. Everyone seems pretty satisfied, the opinions i care are the ones from my fellow gamers.
I haven't bough a ps4 yet because of Dark Souls 2 but as soon as i'm "done" with it it's ps4 all the way! Good to see it's meeting everyone's expectations!
You, me and everyone else my friend! I believe(hope) Sony thinks the same!
I like to start of with the right foot, usually i go for a character with good offensive skills and a bit of magic but this time i'm really unsure as how to start... If only the knight had +intelligence and -faith (and a shield)or the pyromancer returned. Classes don't matter that much in the long run but at the start i need to be ready to use any equipment/learn any (beginner) magic that might give me an edge and if possible look badass!
In Demon's souls you could exploit corners to use magic or arrows in bosses, in Dark Souls it was harder to do that. I love both games equally.
