Prepare to die by giants armour + divine blessings. GET HYPE.

I've put an unreasonable amount of hours into this game on both consoles but if the DLC doesn't include any balance changes then forget it.

What kind of balance changes are needed?
 
Play this game on PC, guys. "Thou will understand one day." I know I cannot wait to get sucked back in with all of the new content on PS3. I just feel dread at the thought of everything else that will not get played once I do. As once you start playing this game, it grabs you and will not let go. It was the same with Demon's Souls.
 
What kind of balance changes are needed?

Somehow patch bottomless box issue so people don't have literally 70 divine blessings to use in multiplayer, edit how poise works, possibly change something about backstabs, fix the new infinite item glitch, fix the dragon + bow backstab glitch, blah blah.
 
So didn't they say they were adding matchmaking? Or is that just to PC?

Yes, it looks like it's coming to all platforms, found a little information about the DLC for the 360/PS3 here:

Xbox 360 and PS3 owners will soon have a reason to take Dark Souls off the shelf. Namco will be releasing the "Artorias of the Abyss" DLC pack this winter on consoles.

"Artorias" adds a new chapter to the game's campaign. A darkness in the forests of Ooolacile is threatening to swallow up the entire kingdom and it falls to the players to stop this menace. The new content features fresh areas, enemies, and items. Catch a glimpse of them in the screenshots below.

This DLC pack also includes more accessible form of player-versus-player content. A new matchmaking system will quickly find other competitors for 1v1, 2v2, and four-player free-for-alls. This bonus PvP feature should help you justify Artorias's $14.99 (1200 MS Points) price.

They are estimating the new content to be about 10 hours long.

Too bad you'll be matched with awful people most of the time. I wonder if it will have any options.

The youtube video has a higher resolution than the game. rofl

I think I might have to play this on my parents' bedroom TV (720p) if I actually get it.
 
Never played Dark Souls and really wanted to get it for the PC, but apparantly it's a really shitty port. Will see how bad it really is.

Gods, why can't we have more games like this? Demon's/Dark Souls style...
 
I spent more than 150 hours playing this game and Platinuming it.... now I feel like falling in love all over again <3

This is crazy, I can't get enough of DS :\
 
I will get this DLC as soon as it hits.

And I shall conquer it, over and over again. No secret shall remain. No enemy shall be unslain. And no back shall be unstabbed.

BRING ON THE WINTER!
