That was slight hyperbole. They've typically sent them out within 24 hours, just like they claim they will. It's that I've had one game key sent out 12 hours prior (which doesn't matter since I was still able to play at launch) and another not until ten hours after the launch, but we were all warned ahead of time by a lot of sources not to take any chances with GMG with TW3.
They might start sending out the keys today or tomorrow. I really have no idea, but I went ahead and got a refund anyway and now have it installed.

Yeah, my converter was off. I'm just going to purchase the standard edition from GMG. I'll pick up the season pass later on during a sale.
Nah my OS is 64 bit

Well makes sense, I guess they will send out keys on the 10th April.
Very happy with Gamesplanet's service too, first time buying there. Read on reddit that preload was up, checked my Gamesplanet account and the key was already there.
just picked up the pc version for $45
took 3 minutes to get my key...
Here is a thread detailing the deal:

I'm so hype, I just want to go to sleep till the game unlocks. I gotta get to the store and get some snakes for game night
Some what now?
What better way to play Dark Souls than to litter your floor with deadly exotic snakes to make the danger more real
I'm not even going to edit it, I'll live with my shame
In exactly 58 hours it is, for me anyway.
:[
You still get it one hour earlier than me goddamnit bro
DS1 and 2 had cloud saves iirc. i'd imagine this would
I don't think they had actually. Maybe the new version of ds 2, but not the original release.

Nope. DS3 has no cloud saves afaik.
Nah it's the same time WW. I'll have to wait for 1 am here in Germany
SOTFS doesn't either. AFAIK only DS1 has cloud saves, for whatever reason.

so is something wrong with greenmangaming? I see they've changed their webpage, but now everything is in pounds instead of $ and if I go to the sign in page to go to my account, it doesn't seem to load correctly and there are no places to type anything in

Sorry, I'm sure this has been beaten into the ground by now, buying from Gamesplanet won't cause any issues for an American Steam Account? If their keys are direct from Namco, I'm more than willing to give them a shot.
Yes they are legit and authorized. You can buy from US without problem. The game is only region locked in Japan and Korea.
When you join this steam group and link your account you also get an additional 5% off.
Damm, been checking mine for the last 2 or so days. I guess Dragon's Dogma wasn't the norm in terms of key release.

Fuck it, I'm in. £30 from Gamesplanet with the 5% off. I've used them many times and they're an official reseller so why pay £10 more from Steam? This will be my first Dark Souls game at launch.

Just pre-ordered along with the Steam controller since the bundle brought the price down a bit and my 360 pad is starting to wear out completely now. Is there a way to VPN into an English version of the game early perhaps? Using JPN VPN maybe?
I was about to buy the Pad too but is it really worth it?
Do you have any more info on that?

Never preloaded something on steam, but is the unpacking really taking that long ?

Well I've been debating buying one for a while and this worked out the cheapest way. They DO whack an extra £7 on at the end for shipping but it still comes up at around £31 which is a saving of around £9 versus GAME, not to mention they (GAME) seem to require you buy £20 credit for steam while you're at it. I'm not expecting any rapid shipping though being Valve. Unless you already need the pad I wouldn't bother.
It depends on many things.

It has sold more on PC AFAIK.
Yeah I've used them twice now for this and The Division, and they've gotten the keys out very early both times.

Like most PC releases, yes.
Most likely, but Souls games are primarily single player, so it shouldn't affect many people.
It only took a long time for me when I preloaded Mortal Kombat X, but that game was ~50GB
Hackers were everywhere man heh, regardless of system.
