Dark Souls 2 New PS3 Video Reveals Visual Downgrade

Some new unexpected details have emerged on Dark Souls 2, the soon to be released action role playing game launching on consoles and PC, following a new video taken from the PlayStation 3 version of the game.

Aparently the PlayStation 3 version has received some sort of visual downgrade. NeoGaf forum member Metroid-Squadron has made a comparison between footage taken from an earlier build of the game and the final PlayStation 3 release. As you can see from the screencaps – the ones with the IGN watermark are the ones from the earlier build – the visual downgrade is especially evident in the use of lightning, with the retail version looking quite worse than the earlier build.

This is really a shame, considering that the use of lightning in the Souls series is what manages to create the eerie atmosphere of the games’ locations. We still don’t know if the Xbox 360 version will suffer from the same visual downgrade. We’ll keep you updated on the matter as soon as more comes in.

Dark Souls 2 will launch on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on March 11th in North America and on March 14th in UK and Europe. The PC version of Dark Souls 2 is going to launch in all regions on April 25th. This version of the game is going to include some extra features not available in the console releases like higher resolution textures, an enhanced framerate option and support for mouse and keyboard.

first Watch Dog, now Dark Souls 2

from Steam? what problem?

Yea, from Steam.
Don't really know what problem because it doesn't pop out any error logs.

Just that when I start the game, nothing happen. When I start again, it says app is already up and running.
When I go to the task manager, I can see that Dark Souls is running on the process column. But nothing happen after that.

your GFWL client is working fine? do you have other GFWL game in your pc?

i am looking for any seller who sell this for pc. so far i only find for ps only.....can suggest me few?

How to beat Dark Souls II boss in just 10 seconds.

Is this open world RPG like Skyrim ??

Better to try DS1 first if you are new to this series.

Not sure Dark Souls expanded their map and dungeon or not.
In DS1, the world is not as open and big as Skyrim, but the game won't restrict you much from going anywhere.

Also take note that DS is quite different from Skyrim in term of RPG elements.
Dark Souls don't have quests log/marker, only few NPCs, and provide limited explanation and guidance on storyline.
And the biggest difference, difficulty. 

It is a masterpiece but not for everyone.
Many peoples got the game due to reviews/recommendation, then sells/stop playing shortly afterwards, not even finish first dungeon/boss.

Meaning the game is a hack and slash.

I prefer game like open world adventure .. Elder scroll and Fallout type. Currently playing Two World 2.

G2A Is this region global legit?

this game not typical mindless hack n slash game. u will die in 2-3 enemy atk if u do that 

its more like u adventure in dark world without any map. IMO its more like Diablo 2 3rd person game. most cikai enemy can 1-2 shotted u 

You tarak on PS3 already?

any1 already tried buying ds2 in GMG? can u redeem the code?

Anyone figured out where to buy non-region locked versions? I went and ask Steam about the extent of region locking and the jokers want me to send them my passport. So 'smart' lah them.

Buy here will do, read again note at store page.

Purchases made in Malaysia can only be added to your library if you are in Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia.

Does that mean I can play it outside of these countries? Their wording rather vague and +-RM 200 is a big deal for me so I'm kinda hesitant to buy.

Yes, refer to Steam Discussion thread several pages back abut this issue.

PC comparison with PS3 version

PC port analysis by Durante. that's seriously looking good

So I went to ask Steam support. If any of you are going around a lot, best to just buy from somewhere else NOT steam.

Problem is all those keys sold outside are also region restricted. Go to GMG and it'll say Dark Souls NA, haven't seen any RoW keys yet. Don't understand what's the purpose of publishers pulling this kinda stunt, doesn't earn them more money is all I know. They should just allow people to select region to connect to in-game instead of locking regions based on keys.

Apparently Steam is restricting a lot of upcoming games to respective regions as well, one of the most recent one is from Bethesda, Wolfenstein. No MP but still region lock.

That's totally different from the meaning of the notice they posted. Such a turnoff. If they are going to region restrict it, then the only way they are getting my money is when they price drop and 75% off.

Best played with a controller. For me this type of games doesn't go well with the keyboard and mouse.
