Apparently the game runs at 30fps. The demo was running on an Xbox One. Will most likely run at 60 on PC.
[QUOTE=Murdoco;47983922]Apparently the game runs at 30fps. The demo was running on an Xbox One. Better not be hardlocked to 30 on PC. That would be a huge step backwards. We would have to make DS3Fix.[/QUOTE]
DaS2 was 30 on PS3 and 360, I doubt they'd go backwards after fixing everything in DaS2

Yah you're right. I'm tired and not thinking clearly. 60 fps is basically a given at this point for the PC version. No way they would fuck with that.

Taking that with the largest grain of salt.

I can just imagine this.
Miyazaki is sitting in a comfortable chair, bombarded with questions. PvP is brought up. The pressure is too much. Under his breath, he mutters a low "dedicated game servers". Room goes nuts.
Apparently they started prototyping on this around 1 year before DkS2 released, weird. And Miyazaki has a co-director.
The servers are probably just going to be the same as in all the other games, a method of matching players together and propagating signs and bloodstains. Once players connect you can bet your arse it'll be P2P.
I must had been lucky or something because i didnt have too much issues with P2P on Dark Souls 1 at least. And i did a fair bit of invasions.
If it's more like Dark Souls 1 and less like 2, then i can't really complain.
You'd think with the dough they're raking in they'll hire some decent netcoding dudes.

"Miyazaki stated that he personally has taken over the world design for the game, and there will be no world hub."
HNNNNNNNNG
So no firelink?
Also called lord of cinders
Huh, so they're pretty much doing what I had though, a sorta alternate sequel where the age of Dark -actually- happened.
this is starting to sound so good i need to see this demo
I bet that we're the Chosen Undead, but since we gave up all of our power to rekindle the flame, we have to start from scratch.

That wouldn't make much sense, otherwise Gwyn would have still been a sentient being instead of a hollowed mess like he was.
My hype is already intensifying from reading that e3 info
I wanna hear Vaati's opinion.

Any theme could fit a Souls style game
And I'd love the shit out of every one of them
That would be so crazy, it would work.
I really want to see what direction they go with after Dark Souls 3. Still waiting on Armored Core 6 though.
i gotta say, i really like the way online works in souls games. the whole online concept is so genius and i'm surprised i haven't seen many people praise it.
in a game that's brutal and lonely as hell, they've managed to create a unique online experience that makes everyone feel like they're working together. messages, ghosts, and coop partners are all really cool mechanics that give the games a really unique feel where no matter how much you suck, everyone is helping eachother out (most of the time). it's great.

It's also, I've learned, very hard to explain the concept to people who have no idea what the souls games are.

Also, noticed a bunch of disagrees on my last post. What's wrong with Vaati?
everyone here seems to hate vaati no idea why

Vaati seems like a genuinely likeable, down-to-earth guy who appreciates his fans and his success and adores the Souls series/Bloodborne. I think most people's problems with him come from the way he's sort of the "easy way out" when it comes to interpreting a From game. From's storytelling style is very much about how you choose to interpret things and fill in the gaps, so it rubs some people the wrong way when there's a chunk of the community that just parrots what Vaati says.
Thank fuck for Soul Level. Soul Memory was the worst idea in the history of worst ideas.
RBFrosty, one of the members of Soulbrandt who was present for the demo, wrote a fucking huge thing about it: [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/darksouls3/comments/3a58ra/today_i_got_to_attend_a_closed_door_demo_of_dark/?sort=old[/url]
Honestly, a sci-fi Souls which takes inspiration from Asimov and Douglas Adams writing with Blade Runners/that fan art aboves aesthetic is my dream game.
