Going to spend this week beating Darksiders but grabbing my copy of DSII tomorrow. Hopefully I won't be tempted lol. How long is the first one?

Steam says I played for 15.7 hrs. I only beat it once and didn't really do anything extra.

I think you can clear it in about 12 hours if you don't go hunting around for any of the collectibles.

 

[excaliburps]

just confirmed that i will not be buying this.

not interested in ports

Good luck with that. I gather you're going to love playing 1-2 games out the year...never got why people are so anal when it comes to this. Unless they're poorly-made, then you shouldn't be bitching.

 

[Derrick01]

I'm not interested in ports either.

fake edit: Ah shit thought this was the dark souls PC thread.

 

[Peterthumpa]

90 seconds, come on. I love midnight releases.

Going to be up later today. Have to contend with those till I get paid and I can buy it.

Is this the start of the avalanche of games for 2012? Why, I think it is! Darksiders 2, Sleeping Dogs, Borderlands 2, etc. Here we go!

First one to give their impression of the retail release gets a cookie from me!

 

[burgerdog]

Oh shit. Ingame!

 

[eznark]

launch damn you

 

[rybrad]

Did anyone who ordered the PC version from shopTHQ get your season pass code with the unlock? My friend and I did not so I assume those will be sent later?

 

[burgerdog]

I think it froze, game has been sitting at a screen with death for over 2 minutes now.

 

[forrest]

Got my THQ email! Time to start downloading!

1 Hour plus download...

 

[JaseC]

I think it froze, game has been sitting at a screen with death for over 2 minutes now.

Yeah, same issue.

Me too. Buzz kill.

 

[Megasoum]

Same....my guess? It's trying to access the online metrics server and the server is getting overloaded.....fucking metrics...

Just got mine with season pass too! WOOT!

 

[eznark]

Does this have some bullshit online authenticator??

 

[Adnor]

Same....my guess? It's trying to access the online metrics server and the server is getting overloaded.....fucking metrics...

Nah, the game just want you to wait one more week like the rest of the world.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Where's da HD patch?

 

[Derrick01]

So I got delayed after the start menu by some stupid bullshit THQ account creator that also wouldn't let me skip it. It was held up for like 2-3 minutes too. Why do publishers do this shit?

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Ha. Steam down for everyone else?

 

[Pimpbaa]

Thanks for not letting me set my resolution and v-sync BEFORE I start the game Vigil.

 

[JdFoX187]

Thanks for not letting me set my resolution and v-sync BEFORE I start the game Vigil.

Was thinking the same thing. Is there no way around this?

 

[Peterthumpa]

Thanks for not letting me set my resolution and v-sync BEFORE I start the game Vigil.

Yeah, a shame.
Anyway, that's it for graphical options. V-Sync and Resolution.

 

[Yuripaw]

I get the feeling the steam servers are being slammed with the release of this game. My friend list refuses to log in on steam right now saying there is no network connection, but everything else works fine.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Tried to update, said something something Disk Read error. Restart steam, can't connect. Wooooooooooooooooo.

 

[CambriaRising]

Yeah, a shame.
Anyway, that's it for graphical options. V-Sync and Resolution.

Same as the first game.

 

[QisTopTier]

Time to play

 

[toastyToast]

Death feels so much better than playing as War

So slick

 

[eznark]

Stupidest fucking shit. I need to load a game to change the resolution??

 

[Megasoum]

Thanks for not letting me set my resolution and v-sync BEFORE I start the game Vigil.

Yeah seriously this always bugs me in games... Why the fuck don't all games starts by default with the desktop res? It's not like anybody want to play in something else than the native res (well unless you want to downsample but that's different)...

And even worst for DS2, but there's only 2 options in the video section... Vsync and Resolution and you have to restart the whole fucking game to change the res.....give me a break...

 

[Patita]

although it's 7 AM here where I live but I'm on a vecation and I'm downloading right now.

THQ <3

 

[burgerdog]

Unless I missed it, there are no graphic settings. Fuck. Just resolution / fullscreen / vsync.

 

[Megasoum]

Well fuck...and looks like the resolution change won't even stick even after a restart.... What a terrible shitty pc port...

 

[gdt]

Just played the opening bit. Getting 50 fps, where I had a hard time holding 20 fps in the first game.

This is a very well optimized pc version.

Ah damn, that sucks.

 

[Doublesith]

Same here. WTF?

I had to do mine twice. It finally synced the second time.

 

[DonMigs85]

My copy is waiting for me at the shop, but it's late so I'll be picking it up after work tomorrow.

 

[kayos90]

So it's not just me that it isn't working, right? Cuz this is sort of ridiculous...

Who do I believe!

Also how did you guys get past that shitty THQ account screen? Every time I try to go past it it just brings me to the top of the page.
