So excited for this to come out just a few more days.

The new matchmaking system looks absolutely amazing!

Omg, I had no idea they were going to add matchmaking for PvP and Coop, that's amazing! That more or less seals the deal for me.

Ordered it yesterday, hope I get it one day earlier

I've been struggling a bit with the descision, because usally I don't wan't to support bad console ports.
On the other hand, everything I've read about the game (and the few videos I saw - dont want to spoil it for me) leads
to the conclusion that I'll love it. And the people which make this game should be rewarded.
So it has basicly come to this: Show them that there is a market on the pc platform for these games. But they should better consider this for their next game! Additional content is nice, but I think I'd prefer a good port any day.
Come for the culture. Stay for the cultural decline.

It's always had co-op. It just wasn't implemented too well. You put a sign on the ground and if anyone sees it they can summon you. Mostly done to kill the fat/skinny guy for people going first time through or the four kings on NG+

The co-op in this game is not the standard co-op where you find your buddies and romp around together.
It is built in a way to force players to help other unknown players. It reinforces the feeling of how alone you are in the world and has a bunch of design reasons behind it. Dark Souls (and Demon's Souls before it) don't have this weird multiplayer for no reason. It was design choice. It doesn't make it bad, simply different.
The Innocent shall suffer... big time.

Is it for sure that this will be a bad port? I thought the lag was just going to be in blight town like on the console version?

100% direct port; they are pushing the game out too fast for it to be optimized at all.

And with GFWL I'm going to have to skip this game once again, guess I'll just have to buy console at one point to play both games.

Ah okay, hopefully they will update it constantly though and work on improving it. I guess we will have to see what happens, I am still really excited for it though!

Btw will it really make the game run bad if it hasn't been optimized?

That's pretty sweet, however there wasn't only lag in Blight Town on the PS3 version. I actually found it to be not too laggy down there. That ladder you unlock in New Londo Ruins always causes me gruesome lag (like, 0.5 FPS, takes 2 minutes to get up the ladder lag). I find it odd that Anor Londo doesn't lag. It seems so elaborate. Fuck, now I want to play Dark Souls >_<

I never had lag there on the Xbox 360 version of it, the lag wasn't that bad in Blight town but at the second bonfire it was pretty laggy until you went around the wall. I was watching all the videos released for the PC version of Dark Souls and it didn't seem like there was any port related issues.

I don't really think the PC port is going to cause a lot of problems. Regardless I am really excited for Dark Souls to come to the PC, I know so many people who are going to get it which is great for me!

I've been looking forward to this, but I refuse to preorder because there's still the chance that gfwl will screw everything up. If everything looks clear after a day or two, I'll buy.
it's my first day

There are only certain areas of the game that lag really badly and it's not that big of an issue. Most of it really is because the PS3 isn't meant to have such a massive seamless world, which Dark Souls has. If you have a good computer, the raw power should help abit simply because I believe the lag issues stem from the fact that the PS3 lacked the firepower to maintain framrates in high particle areas (Blighttown and New Londo were a few areas). That being said, don't expect the most optimized game in the world; the controls will be shabby at best on a mouse+keyboard, and the framerate will likely dip in a few areas. That being said, that shouldn't deter you from enjoying literally one of the best games in recent memory.

Is it odd that I'm considering buying this AND a controller just to play it on PC even though I've already put like 200 hours into the console version? My PS3 is basically an obsolete brick besides the 2 Souls games so it would be nice to have it on a more accessible and enduring platform.

This is all assuming the port is ok. After playing terrible ports like GTA IV I'm not going to assume anything.

Epic. I am sure none of you noobies will die this many times. This has to be the record for most amount of recorded deaths.

Dark souls is the best game I've played, same with Demon Souls and I think the PC version will be great

This guy is very smart, I am very curious as to what "Oolacile brought the abyss upon itself" means.
