The lighting downgrade is unfortunate but a solid framerate was my biggest concern. I've been waiting patiently for the PC version. I'm glad we have footage now for this version.
Great game is great, Glad they sacraficed prettier visuals for a stable framerate and more playability
How much you want to bet they wouldn't ever update the PC version if that's the case.It was what they seemed to have done, but the problem was that scaling back as much as they did resulted in having to overhaul the level lighting (as in reducing the number of actual dynamic lights and adding ambient lighting etc.) and bringing that back would have meant going through all the levels again and balancing them again for the dynamic lighting which then would have resulted in supporting two completely different versions of levels for each patch to come. The only way it's going to come back is after the current console versions are done with (DLC and patches released) and they end up working on versions for PS4/XB1 and then update the PC versions with the assets from those versions.
We can mod the lightning.
Still I expected better.
No it's not.The same lighting engine as the console version? That is surprising.
Bullshit.Don't know why people are making such a big deal out of the graphics. I understand the Watch Dogs downgrade outcry since the game was all about graphics. The souls games however were never good looking ones. Just be thankful that the PC port is not atrocious like DS was
Looks yummy.
Why should anyone be upset at misleading marketing?

Expected.
Don't like it, don't buy it.
Durante's DS2Fix incoming
Pretty gutted they lied about PC being the lead platform but at least it runs smoother than DS1.
Can't wait for the meltdowns when the improved lighting will be in the PS4/XB1 versions.
FROM shall burn that day.
Do you have a source for this or are you making an assumption?
There is nothing to fix.

Some of the environments look really cool, although I guess some of them suffered from low quality assets, just a bit inconsistent but overall I think it looks alright.
60 fps vs 20.
I don't think you read what the person wrote.Anyone who is surprised had it coming. None of this should be a surprise at all.

GB says no cloud saves on Steam..weird
I just don't get it. I've played both, beaten the first. This is twice now that they've released performance disasters that were far from ready for prime time. They're completely silent about their progress, they mislead with bullshots almost to release day, and people are still just stoked to pay for it.
From Software should really stop dogfooding with their engine and just license a superior product.

. L'évolution graphique est pourtant évidente, et pas seulement parce que le jeu tourne sur un bon PC, à 60 fps. Une version qui servira de base, nous assure-t-on, aux adaptations sur consoles - avec un frame rate divisé par deux, on ne change pas un hardware vieillissant.
It wasn't supposed to be a 'port'.Not shocked that they didn't rebalance the entire game for a PC port.

Durante's DS2Fix incoming
He mentioned he would implement new lighting if needed in a previous DS2 thread
modders like Durante, ENB Boris and other should leave From on their mess this time, the first time Durante fixing the port was ok because it was first PC port job for From, but now? fixing Namco and From lazy job again? why? just let these big companies lose some sales and know that lying to their customers is bad and learn something.
