Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition GamesCom trailer [update: new screens]

Artorias looks bad-fucking-ass.

He's clearly hollow, or overtaken by something. He doesn't move like a human.

Can't wait for the console DLC.


as my namesake I truly hope I can save him still from whatever he is afflicted by....praise the sun, make this so!

one way or the other, his armor will be mine. i will become the new Artorias the people deserve and need......
 
If the port is garbage, people will be talking about it in the OT, I'm sure. Why wouldn't they? Official Threads don't have an "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all" policy. Also, there is typically a PC Performance thread for multiplatform games with PC versions, so I would hope most specific technical conversation will go on there to keep the OT about the game instead of optimization options.
 
Don't know if this has been confirmed or discussed but since we are going back to the past, I hope the game will expound on other NPC's in the game especially Dusk (Princess) of Oolacile
(Tomb of Oolacile might do this)
and the roots of Solaire of Astora for example.

I've always been most curious about
the Surt of Dark Souls, whatshisface who murders Anastacia of Astora.

It just looks like his left arm is broken. That's why he's one-handing his sword.

Love the slightly muffed voices helmets give in the soul series.
 
I'm so conflicted. I wanna play the DLC so bad and I don't think I can wait until Winter. But at the same time, I would rather purchase and play it on the PS3 because I doubt the PC community will ever be as large as the PS3 one, I will more than likely be able to carry over my character into the DLC, the framrate/resolution lock, and the whole GWFL thing.
 
I so fucking want this DLC, but after I beat the game, I just got tired of having a 20 minute load time just to start the game. : (

I must be lucky, I've played through Dark Souls with 3 different characters up to NG++, and my load times never got to be unbearably bad. What console were you playing on? Have you tried clearing your cache?
 
Well it does look like a rip-off Guts' Berserker armor. Him being injured isn't much of a stretch.

With all the time travel in the game, it's gonna be great that we get to be the person who put Artorias down AND robbed his grave.
 
Yeah, they definitely need some permanent BP enemies, otherwise for us vets the new content will be too easy.

Any idea what's going on here? I'm getting Demons Souls vibes from this.

They look like humanoid...flames of humanity o_o

EDIT: And yeah I want the PC version by means of having the full game+dlc early and being digital...but the PS3/360 version might have more of a community. Then again, if the PC version isnt as bad as it seems (I know) or can be fixed up by the community, PC Souls will probably have the most longevity.

Ugh decisions.

eh I dont normally get freak out or anything but that pics just makes me feel unconformable.

Excited for the DLC tho.
 
Is anyone planning on starting a new character and new game for the DLC or will you take your favorite character? I'm not sure how it will work but I'm afraid of being over leveled.

Most likely I will be starting over for this. Not like I wouldn't enjoy running through this game again.
 
I haven't heard anything from GMG about my refund. I should open another ticket. Did any of you who pre ordered from there was able to get a refund?

I opened another ticket after reading your post and got a refund 17 minutes later.
 
From Software has some quality character designers. Really. They probably went to hell and back again for inspiration, seeing how creepy most of their character designs are. Especially the enemies, jeez.

I love that in the DS games so much.
 
I'll definitely be getting this since I play my games on a laptop with a 15 inch screen so resolution shouldn't be a problem I think. Just hope I can run it.
 
shit.. i forgot i emailed GMG about a refund and they finally got back to me.. my order was reversed. kind of regretting that decision especially if a patch comes.
