I started playing Dark Souls couple of days ago on my PC. Though it is a disappointing port, the game is still a master piece. I am right now crawling through the Darkroot forest to defeat the Moonlight Butterfly.

So, any one playing this game? lets discuss. If you are not playing.. get the game ASAP and start playing. All the best(I mean it) :p

Because you will need it when you die in Tutorial itself.

Get used to it faun. You will die here thousands of times. In this game, death is not a punishment, but rather a lesson.

Bad port. How ??

Yes. A bad port. The game is designed to take advantage of PC hardware. And the game's internal render resolution is fixed at 1024x768 no matter what resolution is.

Yeah, but there is a mod out, which will improve the visuals.

Funny thing is, the mod came out in less than a day. A no name enthusiast almost fixed the issue. Although Fromsoftware says that they have no experience in the PC platform, but this just shows that they are lazy.

Well atleast they released it on PC. I would give them that. If a mod could fix the visual issues then they better hire that modder for their future PC games. LOL :)

I'll probably start this once I'm done with Resident Evil 6. I have a 2 week leave planned from 8th of October. That should give me a good amount of time to make some progress in this game. Having completed Demon's Souls recently, I can't express how excited I am to try this game out. For first timers, this would be brutal and frustrating, but those who have the balls to stick with it, will reap it's fruits later on. I have started with the Pyromancer class with this game. Have Durante's 1.5 fix applied and added SweetFX graphics filters, which make the game look amazing. For some reason, I can't seem to get the 60fps fix to work properly. Apart from that, I think the mods have really made the game much better.

Playing as knight this time as opposed to deprived last time.

Defeated Asylum Demon in second try. First time I stood over the pedestal for too long and he got me there.

Beat the Taurus demon last night on my first try. Spammed the same fall from the top + RB to do some massive damage and he was down in 4 hits or so.

Folks... DSfix 1.7 is out. And it is amazing. I unlocked the fps limit and its smooth like butter. Kudos to the modder. If you are playing this game, this fix is a must.

I'm downloading this game..
Read the reviews, checked some videos.
To me this game looks somewhat like Wheel of Time (if anyone remember this game) since it has the exact environment like that one, plus, its horror + rpg game also.

Any tips for the newbie apart from "its tough...take your time" ?
