The most pressing issue they could fix for the pc release (and console) is giving the game actual sanity checks. Cheating is already happening quite a lot on ps3, and it's only going to get worse on the PC version. Soul memory makes easy way for much, much worse griefing than in DS1.

As someone who has spent nearly 200 hours on the PS3 version now I can safely say that the game looks really good in places and really poor in some others. The PC version can only make things better. Realtime lighting IS in the game, it just isn't always active.

The lighting is still active BTW, just not everywhere I wonder if modders can change that. PS you all are a bunch of whiny babies. For every area that looks bad the game has 2 that look stunning. I'm super excited for the pc version.

Yeah it looks different, but have you actually played the game? It's still good looking overall despite the flaws.

Well, there is still hope in the form of mods.

If you want to invade, bloodbro. Bluebro is ok on ng+. Bellbro is very limited.

HitmanAndQuitIt posted:Uh, what? One of the starting gifts is the "top tier" trade in item for the crows in this game. Everything they give out is RANDOM. Top tier rewards include slabs, twinkling, the channelers trident, Demons Great Hammer and the best whip in the game.

Whips have amazing range, also the old whip which you get from the trade does 340 damage fully upgraded (+ scaling) But yeah, Old Whip, Channelers Trident and Demons Great Hammer are all trade only items. You can get unlimited trade items though if you really want so you will get them sooner or later.

Thanks to bonfire ascetics existing you should get coop somewhere always. Also the bellbro areas are going to be hellish on PC because of the short loading times!

Noxville posted:It's fine. It never goes below 50%, there's something you can use to limit the effect (and thing you can abuse to prevent it entirely). This is somewhat wrong! If you are a sinner, you can actually go as low as 10% if your sin level is really high.

tRIDAV posted:What the gently caress is up with weapon durability. My broadsword broke twice inside 30 minutes inside Forest of Giants. Is this going to be a thing now where I constantly have to warp back to Majula to repair my weapon every time I even see a bonfire? Protip, watch the red bar under your weapon. It resets when you rest at a bonfire.

nftyw posted:My favorite enemy moment so far was with me as a white phantom, helping some dude explore some kinda sea/sewer area. There was this elevator shaft, I decided to go down for a bit since he seemed to be AFK, and I got two giant swamp things pissed at me, so I ran back to the elevator, and noted that the platform was going back up... so there went the escape route. However because the elevator platform was going up, there was a hole in the middle of the room... which one of the monsters fell into and died in because it was taking too big of a swing at me Sinners rise? Yeah that's a legit strategy for those jerks.

I think I opened all the doors the soldier's key can open, is my only option killing the pursuer at this point? Cause that guy wrecks my poo poo. You can always go back to Majula and explore other options.
