Kudos.


I've actually been taking something of a break from Dark Souls until the patch comes out.

Only reason I play my Darkwraith so much is because my sunbro never gets summoned.

Depends on the area...  and your level...  Blighttown, for reference, you can probably grab a few around 26-35...

Capra, Gargoyles, Gaping...  between 16-25 seems an active range...  26-30 has some activity for Gaping, but I guess that is partial on luck.

Well, havn't been able to get much further then where I am, no access to PS3 for a bit.

Evidently, the reason the patch isn't out for us yet is because FROM released it in Japan, and it actually completely broke the online so namco is waiting for them to fix that before giving us v1.05 instead.

Sometimes it pays not to be the country of origin.

I just got a spirit of vengeance in Anor Lando, guy had a lightning katana and was doing flips all over the place. He killed Brolaire but I got him with my Occult Barbed sword.

Patch is finally out, after many namco shenanigans.

Online vastly improved, drop rates increased, pyromancy nerfed, tons of stuff rebalanced and stat scaling much better now.

Evidently Hollowed Soldier Shield went from best shield to absolutely terrible.

I've been playing this like crazy lately. Currently have a 125-ish zweihander knight build and I'm nearing the end of my second playthrough, finding it's not exactly the best build for PvP, but it's a ton of fun just marching around and slamming my sword into things, even after over 60 hours of gameplay on that one character. On the side, been trying out other builds, but not really sure what I want to work on next though.

Dark Souls PC edition confirmed

[terkiey]

I'VE BEAT IT ON CONSOLE, I'LL BEAT IT AGAIN!

[Zangi]

Hurk.. PC is getting exclusive boss fights?  Are the consoles getting em too?

[lordcooper]

That would contradict the 'exclusive' part of your statement.

Trailer showing some of the new areas for PC version

[Roundabout Lout]

PC version will use Games For Windows Live. They had to fuck it up somehow, they just fucking had to. >:O
