The game looks and runs great though, that's all that matters. The waiting was indeed worth it. Just the load times and the fps alone make it worth it.

Will pre-order.

This news is pretty pleasing. Sad about the lack of awesome lighing though. I can live without the super dark areas, but really awesome lighting is always awesome. I'm more worried about textures. And of course I'm going to be downsampling from 1800, that that will certainly help.

We can force those with the driver anyway so not that big of a deal.

Thoughts? The PC version only looks a bit more washed out because YouTube compression, so don't judge it for that.

Crossing finger for texture mod for DS2, so we don't have to see those repeating ground texture ( and some of the ugly rock texture I saw at 4:21-435 of the Dark Souls II (PC): Giant Bomb Quick Look, etc.. ).

Holy shit at that 4K shot. This game requires modest hardware at best, right? i5 3570k + GTX 770 4GB might do it for 4K?

 

[JMTHEFOX]

Although I'm not ready for 4K gaming just yet, I feel that the screenshot is just as beautiful as (or better than) the console versions, but I will get both the PC and PS3 versions regardless.

GB QL looked fucking great, can't wait: c'mon GMG, gimme my key!

It'll be interesting to see what the next few months brings, with regards to technical patches, if there be any. It be nice to see the original art and ambition fully realised on the PC at some point, which I'm sure the dev team share.

I'm level 105 53 hours in on the ps2 version. I don't think I can bear to start over, even with the FPS and load time gains

Just continue playing your PS3 copy and pick up the PC version if you ever wanna do a 2nd playthrough.

Come on, don't be like that... it doesn't look great in consoles but... ps2?

This is what inevitably happened to me with Dark Souls. I was very far into the game, but double dipped. Never looked back. Lost progress but made it back up in no time and the experience was so much more improved I couldnt complain.

Don't get your hopes up about the Mirror Knight fight guys:

I wonder how the input lag is on PC. The ps3 version definitely has input lag. Less lag could make the learning curve on some of the bosses shorter.

Looks awesome (love this webm thing BTW!)

Also looks incredible in that 4K shot too.

Wait, are GMG sending keys out already or are people just getting excited?

I haven't gotten a key yet.

God, we got fucked over again. From lied, they put shit all effort into the PC port, they barest of bones.

Maybe with Dark Souls 3.

But I'm still upset.

The hyperbole, it's too much. The entire game engine was changed to support development on the PC. They shouldn't have supported the PC at all and stuck to consoles, this is ridiculous.
