wtf is dark souls? thats an action rpg with huge open world like.. err.. skyrim.. but 3rd person and quite hardcore.

Dark Souls is the new action role-playing game from the developers who brought you Demon’s Souls, FromSoftware. Dark Souls will have many familiar features: A dark fantasy universe, tense dungeon crawling, fearsome enemy encounters and unique online interactions. Dark Souls is a spiritual successor to Demon’s, not a sequel. Prepare for a new, despair-inducing world, with a vast, fully-explorable horizon and vertically-oriented landforms. Prepare for a new, mysterious story, centered around the the world of Lodran, but most of all, prepare to die. You will face countless murderous traps, countless darkly grotesque mobs and several gargantuan, supremely powerful demons and dragons bosses. You must learn from death to persist through this unforgiving world. And you aren’t alone. Dark Souls allows the spirits of other players to show up in your world, so you can learn from their deaths and they can learn from yours. You can also summon players into your world to co-op adventure, or invade other's worlds to PVP battle. New to Dark Souls are Bonfires, which serve as check points as you fight your way through this epic adventure. While rested at Bonfires, your health and magic replenish but at a cost, all mobs respawn. Beware: There is no place in Dark Souls that is truly safe. With days of game play and an even more punishing difficulty level, Dark Souls will be the most deeply challenging game you play this year. Can you live through a million deaths and earn your legacy?

Key Features:
Extremely Deep, Dark & Difficult – Unforgiving in its punishment, yet rewarding for the determined – learn to strategize freely and conquer seemingly impossible challenges.
Fully Seamless World – Explore a completely integrated world of dark fantasy where dungeons and areas are seamlessly intertwined, with great height.
Mastery Earns Progression – Contains 60 hours of gameplay, with nearly 100 uniquely despair-inducing monsters & an incredibly nuanced RPG systems including: weaponry, armor, miracles, faith, and more. Player success depends on their eventual mastery of how and when to use the magic spells, choice of armor, the number of weapons, the types of weapons, and the moves attached to the weapons.
Network Play – Players may cross paths with one another, invading each other for PVP battles, or to play co-op and take on giant boss encounters as a team.
Flexible Character Development & Role Play – As the player progresses, they must carefully choose which of their character’s abilities to enhance as this will determine their progression style.
Community – See other real players and empathize with their journey, learn from seeing how others died, find and leave messages for your fellow players; helping them or leading them into death.
Symbolic of Life & Hope – The Bonfire is an important feature in Dark Souls for many reasons. Though in gameplay it serves as a health and magic recovery and a progression check point, it also happens to be the one place in the dark world where players can find a fleeting moment of warmth and calm.


the game is horribly ported so to play it anyhow you most likely need a gamepad. but game is still awesome.
also you will need resolution fix by durante since port is horrid.


so yeah, prepare to die, since in this game you will die alot. ALOT. but it's still fun a s fuck.

Yup, have it on 360, pc soon enough, to bad there is no fucking options, why the hell would i want to buy this on pc, when it is the same on 360?
Doesnt even look any better.
Makes me fucking pissed.

well.. i got it on pc. using resolution fix and gamepad. unplayable without

Because it's the "Prepare to Die edition" which includes numerous new areas, items, and bosses. This content won't come to consoles for months.

Currently I have Dark Souls for Xbox and it's amazing, I've been waiting for the Prepare to Die edition since it was first announced. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy off steam.

That doesnt change the fact that it is a worthless shitty ass pc port that just works with a pad and with no options what so ever.
I love dark souls as well, it is a great game.
But i was expecting something more when i played it on a 10x more powerful machine.

Have it on PC and Cleric OP. Don't like the Multiplayer.

Guh, stuck at the gorgoyles...
Thief here..

Are you kidding me?

...No, really?

re-started as bandit. and no dargon, red dragon doesn't come back ;( so this is another long shot.

gonna do all str and swing claymore or dragon tail (if i will get it)

Ye, i pretty much failed when the other one appeared.
Made it though, wasnt so hard anyway x)

Cant really use any good weapons, so yeah.
