Yay!Doodled something quickly to celebrate
Yes, it's incredible, everything about that trailer is amazing. I can't keep up with my excitement.
DARK SOULS II Announced - [PC/PS3/360 - PR in OP]

220 hours on the PC version and I encountered a hacker 1 or 2 times.
But yeah, it's much more active on PS3.
The fact that the PC version isn't an afterthought this time around makes it much more likely that it has a decent budget behind it.. or wait maybe not.
Namco's all
"HEY IT SOLD DESPITE LOW BUDGET PORT. LETS DO IT AGAIN LOL"

I have no words, this is too much for me.
is it too early to start a hardcore campaign to get Durante hired by From? Assuming he wants to be of course.

Ah I'll buy it at a high price stranger!!!
Durante should get like 5% of the sales for what he did. I'd be actually pretty fucking cool if he was hired lol

I feel like a cat on catnip right now. I want to roll around in all this hype.
There's not really a special "obvious opening" -- what I did could be done for every other PC game, it's just that every other PC game has a resolution setting.
Anyway, I'm very positive the PC version will be better this time around and won't need fixing. I don't think it's even worth speculating about too much.

That'd be awesome, but if they know of his fix they will either try this time to implement it themselves (even if they don't know about it, they might try harder with the port this time), or they will just assume that he or someone else will mod it regardless.
For free.

I was holding off on which way the state of third-party Wii U support would go, but I'm hearing that our statisticians are almost ready to make a projection.

I want a Wii U version for if nothing else, the Miiverse community for it would rock so much! 
Dark Souls fans are awesome and Miiverse is awesome, it would be a match made in *AMAZING CHEST AHEAD*
Come on Namco make it happen!
Either way, surprised From didn't save it for the start of next gen. Oh well if it means I get it quicker then ALL GOOD.
YAY!
Haven't had the chance to use my D-Bry gifs in ages! Wooooooo!

More like the guardians of the painted world entrance in Anor Londo.

I'll be enjoying this on my 360, but no Wii U support is very bad form.

I played for 200 hours, all online, and encountered 2 hackers. One just dropped stuff, bowed and left...
A lot of the scenes in the trailer were retreads of areas from Dark Souls. We got brief glimpses of the Catacombs, Depths, Darkroot Garden, and Anor Londo too.

Cold + Dragons = Skyrim? Wat?
Demon's Souls had two dragons and a dragon god.
Dark Souls had numerous dragons (undead dragons, dragon god, kalameet & the various drakes) and both the starting area and painted world would qualify as cold places.
heck even some of the mocap seemed reused from Dark Souls, and the rope bridge seemed straight out of the painted world. plus you can totally see anor londo.
edit: oh, beats

Gaben needs to fly to Japan right now and knock some sense into them.
But I assume it CAN be fixed/blocked against that exact thing that you did, right? Just logically.
Anyway yeah I hope it won't need any help this time, and you proved to them that the help is not incredibly time-consuming (understatement).
Um you do know this is NeoGAF right? What else will the next 50 pages be filled with
It looks exactly like it, though it really is just a bridge in a shitty condition.

And the few times you do, like at Firelink Shrine, or the Nexus (or the blaring boss music), it's all the more effective.

There was a lot of painted world vibes. The cold look, the mask guys, the bridge, etc. Which is great since it was the best area in Dark. But new setting not much of a direct relation.
The hackers is an overblown issue, in 100 hours of gameplay I think I encountered one hacker.
As for the community, I'm sure the fact that the game was nearly one year late release had it's influence, plus the game suffered from some networking issues (which hopefully the sequel won't have).
I'm sure that a day 1 (or close to it) release will lead to a healthier user base on PC compared to DS, hopefully the experience with DS PC port will allow them to solve the issues that the first port suffered from.
Well, you can make it harder. But that would actually require a lot more effort than simply adding an in-game resolution option!
You're right of course. I just wanted to let people know what I expect.
I think it will be a normal PC version this time around. Same assets, much better IQ and framerate, still GFWL.
FROM probably has little idea what a Durante is, or how a Durante saved their asses on the PC port.
But hopefully they put an intern on it at least, this time.
