Dark Souls III is a game that a lot of PC gamers are looking forward to. However, it appears that Bandai Namco plans to lock its framerate at 30fps. While this is not confirmed yet, Bandai Namco’s support claimed that the current plan is to lock the framerate on the PC version.
Our reader ‘Jonathan’ sent us this image (this image comes from Reddit’s khawaja07), in which Bandai Namco’s support claimed that Bandai Namco and From Software plan to lock the framerate on the PC version of Dark Souls III.
As Harley said:
“Unfortunately the plan is to keep the framerate locked at 30fps but nothing is yet confirmed from what I’m aware of.”
Now while this does not mean that the game will be indeed locked at 30fps, it shows Bandai Namco’s intentions. And its current intention is to lock the framerate at 30fps.
We’ll be sure to keep you posted regarding Dark Souls III’s framerate!

Before the sh!tstorm, READ: This is a unknown support person, not dev. So hold your knickers.
LOL who am I kidding?
Very strange if this turns out to be true. They admitted they were ashamed of the DS1 PC port and made an effort to make DS2 much better in that regard. Why would they backslide?
Because they don’t give a flying f***?
Clearly they did if dark souls 2’s port was a lot better than dark souls.
I give you that (although they still missed to include some textures for the KB+M prompts but I won’t get much into that) but considering how Bandai has handled the “Tales of…” ports, I’d stand by my statement.
Yeah, if key board and mouse was useable, I would have said it was a pretty solid port. BTW it’s being confirmed that the game is at least capable of running at 60fps.
if im not mistaken its a different engine and a different group of devs. from software has like 2-3 teams.
I wish there was such place for them to “backslide” to. Dark Souls 2 is an awful port with PS2 visuals and terrible control scheme. 60fps support was a joke, causing some gameplay issues.
Since fans are still buying it and apologists are still apologizing there is no reason to bother themselves with better PC version.
I seriously hope this turns out to be false, this is too retarded to be true.
wasnt there a post on other website(dont remeber) where a dev said it would be 60fps but the demo was at 30fps because was a older version?
Surely Bandai Namco cannot be this stupid, unless they were living in an underground cave in 2015.
Yes they are THAT stupid! I honestly can’t believe a PC gamer giving money for this farce! And I am a hardcore fan of the Souls game! I love them but not giving a single cent since they fix this! Although to tell you the truth I believe the great Durante will do their job once again!
they will a lot of pc gamers layed bloodborne and it was 30fps.they will play this if its locked.the real die hard fans wont care and just want to play.
i was just saying people will play it even if its locked at 30:)
One thing is playing it at 30fps because your rig (in that case, the console) can’t do better and another because the devs decides that you shouldn’t play above that. They shouldn’t remove that choice when there is one.
Yeah aside from the fact the die hard fans are always using exploits such as getting creatures stuck behind objects and time their dodges perfectly, but somehow 30 fps is acceptable.
I don’t think that these real die hard fans are that much! I love these games but we are not talking about console versions here, its the PC!! So 30fps is simply unacceptable no matter how hard it is for a console gamer to grasp this. I hope their sales on PC to be really bad in order to deliver a fix ASAP. I believe the Durante dude has other things to do besides doing their job!
there are die hard fans. you have to be to like souls games. i admit im not a fan of the series. there are some badly ported game on pc tho like fallout 4 for instance. there was a lot locked on that game when it was released for pc.
there was vsync, fps, fov you had to alter ini files to unlock them or use a mod. as a former console player 30-60fps i dont mind much on a controller you dont need 60fps on mouse and keyboard you do.
im not one to grips about fps i just want my game to look good.
Never underestimate the stupidity of publishers, look at Konami..
FFS BAMCO!
now you seriously jeopardized my game purchase, again durante has to do your work.
consoles holding back PC’s, again
#FramerateMatters
How exactly is this the consoles’ fault? The game developers/publisher decide things like that, not the game consoles.
Dark Souls 3 gets developed for Consoles, primarily. Consoles can only support 30 FPS, not 60, since their Hardware is more limited =
Consoles holding back the PC version.
As usual. Why are we still explaining this?
It’s a Developer’s/Publisher’s decision not to raise/remove the FPS Cap on the PC Port, yes, but there wouldn’t even be things such as “FPS Caps” if Consoles weren’t doing sh*t like this to us, & the entire Industry for a f*cking decade now.
The consoles can easily support 60 frames per second, there are many 60fps games on consoles that look just as good as DS3. It’s just that developers prefer to spend the horsepower on graphics instead on achieving 60fps. Or in this case it seems to be more like shoddy developmental/lazy devs since DS3 really doesn’t look all that great from a graphical standpoint.
As usual, developers holding back the PC version.
It’s always easier to blame consoles for everything though, right?
What a peasant my freaking god… let me explain this to you little dirty peasant… ps4 is the most “powerful” console this gen. On that console this same dev team created a very similar game called bloodborne. They said on an interview before bloodborne release, that 60 fps was a sacrifice cuz the console was not able to move the game at more than 30 fps… so now the same dev team create a bigger game with same engine and more complex shaders, and here you are… peasantry blind blaming a dev team cuz your awful underpower next gen console… greatness awaits they said… and you bought that crap.
Plus bandai namco is so pro consoles that make me sicks.
If your console was not the crap it is, this dev team would be one of the first guys giving you 60 fps, so you can laugh on the pc (masterR) community, but guess what… nobody is going to laugh about it. Not you, cuz this gens consoles are a big jokes, and not me, cuz 1 more time pc is suffering from this cancer parity crap.
Hope you read all this and learn some stuffs before opening your big and peasants mouth. Or you can go back to ign or dualshockers and host a peasant party where all of you share the same controller and enjoy the rumble.
You do not have to come off like that. Again its the dev’s fault regardless just because the consoles can barely handle 30fps without dropping down to 18 frames lol doesn’t mean the game’s engine shouldn’t support a uncap framerate.
He doesn’t seem to comprehend what causes a frame rate to be low.
You don’t seem to have comprehended by comment, so I wouldn’t be talking about comprehension if I were you.
He is actually correct. From is just really bad tech-wise.
There are prettier games on consoles that are 60 fps. So it is not that the game is too demanding EVEN for the weak PS4.
How do you define prettier games? More beautiful colors and artwork? Dude there are no games with impressive visuals, technically advanced that run 60fps on consoles! The game might not be too demanding but for sure it cannot run 60fps on console’s hardware!
No, OBJECTIVELY higher end technology. Not art style. I make a clear difference between the two.
There are. Metro Redux is one of them (and it looks MUCH better than DS3, tech-wise. Not talking art style, that is subjective… tech-wise).
It can run at 60. It is just inferior programmers that cant do it.
And I am a PC elitist from a PC elitist-filled country…
Metro redux.. Dude that is a game from 2010 and it was downgraded HEAVILY to run 60fps on consoles. Volumetric lighting, Bokeh DOF was removed, Tessellation,
Muzzle Flash shadows, Characters cast semi transparent models instead of
actual shadows, Smoke & Fog effects have been toned down heavily, smoke is no longer illuminated by light. No need to quote more.. It does not look much better than DS3. I understand what you mean by tech-wise but still consoles CANNOT handle those kind of games @60fps. PC elitist-filled country? What in the world is that?
Are you sure about that? The game doesn’t seem to look that much
different on PC vs PS4. I haven’t played the redux version though, I only have the original two Metro games on Steam.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dz0IaoyBHkk
Also Dark Souls 3 looks like a last-gen game, I mean look at this: http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/374320/ss_12c4d9a3c04d6d340ffea9335441eb2ad84e0028.1920×1080.jpg?t=1457542151
They have to run the game at a measly 30fps and the game still looks this bad? Look at other 30fps games on PS4 and there’s a huge difference in graphics. The truth is, From Software either sucks at programming or their engine is just too old. There’s no reason to restrict the framerate on PC, other than shoddy programming (like tying physics to framerate).
Yes I am sure about that! Please don’t show me youtube comparison videos.. I’ve seen both running on the same TV. And the comparison with DS3 actually is flawed as Martin explained in one sentence!
“The game still looks this bad”? I’ve stated that DS3 is not state of the art visuals but there is nothing “this bad” with the picture or the game. Japanese developers have an issue with texture quality I admit but the debate here is that DS3 and 60fps on consoles doesn’t seem possible. The games that run at 60fps on consoles visually look dated. So no such game exists on consoles to back up your claims.
Well I don’t own a console so I know only what Digital Foundry stated, which doesn’t put the PS4 version that far away from the PC version (at 1080p). Anyways, the problem isn’t just texture quality, DS3 looks last-gen overall.
I bet that quite a lot of last-gen PC games will look much better than DS3 on PC. Then there’s also games like Battlefront, which run at 60fps even on consoles and look much better: http://blogs-images.forbes.com/jasonevangelho/files/2015/10/STAR-WARS%E2%84%A2-Battlefront%E2%84%A2-Beta_20151006181649.jpg
Not to mention the fact that Battlefront also has big opens maps, tons of players running around, vehicles, explosions everywhere etc. Though the resolution here is a puny 900p on PS4 and lmao 720p on X1.
Not to mention that there are so many great looking games on PS4 that are also 30fps but look so much better than DS3. For example:
http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/393/3936684/2771728-7098783470-news..jpg
http://cdn3.gamepur.com/images/uncharted-4-a-thiefs-end/direct-feed-screenshot-2.jpg
Really good looking console games @60fps do not exist. I know there are other games visually superior but as you said those ones run at 30fps so this is not our argument!! You give me the example of Battlefront that runs at 1280×720 for crying out loud! And ok PS4 at 900p. Battlefront is an incredibly well optimized game I can’t say otherwise. I never said that DS3 is a visual achievement especially for a PC game I said that I do not believe that consoles can run DS3 @60fps. Their hardware is limited! Yes they can run very well optimized exclusively made games for each platform and look visually are impressive but always @30fps and that’s it! So far the development and performance of console games hasn’t shown anything better…
It was not my boy. I have seen the Console version in action. Sure the PC one is better, much better even (it has all those affects), but it makes DS3 look like a PS2 game.
You are over reacting dude but anyway. Enjoy your gaming! 😉
PS: What did you mean by PC elitist-filled country I still wonder? :S
Bulgaria. We are in Poor Eastern Europe. People here are PC gamers 🙂 !
We know it is cheaper long term… being poor means you think LONG term with your money. That is why PC Gaming is… the default here.
Oh I see.. Yes I understand man. I live in Greece.
Yes. I hate consoles, but… lets be real, they arent THAT weak.
I don’t hate consoles. I am gaming since 1989. Always up until a year ago that sold X1 and PS4 I was PC gaming and had mostly every console that was released. I was a collector as well but stopped collecting since the last gen. Consoles are just a cheap way to enjoy games. Although I will admit my truth that I can’t enjoy games anymore @30fps. That’s me.. I decided to spend all my resources building a PC rig and I really enjoy it! 😉
Consoles are a scam. Cost more long term and do less.
This is the problem… people dont seem to understand what it takes to run a console game at 60 fps. And that means dowgrade. Sybnios explained to you in the post above yours what is wrong and how is wrong and why is wrong about Mredux on a very detailed way and somehow you replied his post with “it was not my boy.”
I dont get it. Really. Sybnios is totally correct on his post. Utterly correct… but people seems to ignore or deny such post and prefer to think that console, in some kind of magical way, can sport the same visuals as a gaming rig, push 60 fps, bokeh dof, msaa or better, lets push ssaa.
I understand.
And I see Witcher 3 at 30 fps. Witcher 3 makes DS3 look like a PS2 gen game.
Metro LL may be linear, but it makes it look like a PS1 game. It is just poor programming. I am not dissing on the game but it is how it is.
Dark Souls 3 is amazing looking. The tone and shades are done perfect the actual scenery is amazing. Metro was a good looking game but honestly some poorly lit subways and a grey sky are not what i call an immersive world.
That is art style. Not the same as graphical fidelity…
And it seems you havent played Metro…
I’ve actually played all of metro and i never said it was ugly, i just think it was a blander look. Sure its was graphically impressive but it wasn’t as immersive due to its art and graphics. Graphics arn’t just the polygon count when i look at the game it has to be artistically pleasing as much as technical, Dark souls has it Metro didn’t. So naturally im going to think Dark Souls is overall the better looking game.
I consider it (and STALKER) to be the most immersive games ever made. Sure, Dark Souls is up there, but NOT quite there. That is subjective.
I already covered that. Art style = Subjective. Art Style > Graphical Fidelity.
But I am talking about graphical fidelity here as that is what affects the game’s performance…
Uh, Metro is a linear corridor game whereas Dark Souls games feature much bigger environments so that comparison is awful.
*sigh*
Metro’s engine is made for open world games. And besides, it does not matter, the difference is THAT big and to top it all off, Metro *HAS* open levels where FPS is LOCKED at 60.
Look at Witcher 3. Much better looking than DS3 and 30 fps. So surely the uglier (graphical fidelity-wise of course, not artistically) DS3 which also does not have incredible feats of engineering like Novigrad would do 60?
metro was also just a ps3 game that was touched up. You got what PC got 3 years before.
You think I am a Console gamer or something?
4A Games are really good programmers. The PS3 metro LL was amazing… for a PS3 game. The PC version was and still is one of the best looking games ever made.
The PS4 version is not even close to the PC one. But it is far better than what From can do.
This is not a dis against the games… but it is how it is.
You seem awfully upset by the facts that I stated that you had to go on a name calling tantrum. It’s also amusing that you believe I’m a consosle gamer, because you know, PC gamers totally can’t say anything positive about consoles, that’s totally not feasible, right? /s
Since you’re so clueless, I’m a PC only game, I don’t own any consoles except a nDS and a broken 360. But I guess in the world that you’re living in, owning a nDS and a broken 360 totally neglects the fact that I build my own gaming PC which I use for all my gaming needs. Though I’ll defnitely get a PS4 down the right, there’s too many good games there that might not be coming to PC.
Oh and by the way, the real peasants are the people like you who are only able to play on one system. 😉
Sorry. I just can’t laugh at this anymore. Elitist PC zealots often let their grasp of a few objective points lead them into believing they have bulletproof logic to serve their anti-console agenda. And the unrelenting, aggressiveness of that agenda is truly shocking.
Heck, they work in the anti-console angle ALL THE TIME no matter what kind of article it is or what it’s on. It could be about a PC exclusive RTS: You betcha, just like clockwork they’ll be an anti-console jab worked into the comments (like seriously, why was a console even on your mind?).
This is not normal, and it needs to be recognised as such. And to clarify: This isn’t about the validity of your crusade, it’s about the psychology underpinning it and the kind of person it creates.
As someone who is GENUINELY platform agnostic your attitude irritates me. Where does someone get off being so smug and condescending? Did you have to beat that guy down with your e-dick to make your point?
Normal people don’t have to. So I can only assume you willfully and malignantly made the choice to. Or you have no choice because your ego compelled you to (which is again, not normal or healthy).
Why did you do that? And why is it okay for you to do that? You have no hardware surveys to hide behind. No benchmarks. No Digital Foundry article. Because now the (very belated) subject isn’t about something you can assign a number to: It’s about you as human being.
And stop typing. In all likelihood you are either writing (or mentally preparing) a response about some technical jargon or software to the effect of ‘but he said [about games]’ to justify what you said (rather than your attitude in general). Save it. I don’t want your counter-thesis.
That’s not what this is about. It’s about you, and PC zealots at large AS PEOPLE. And I use the term ‘zealots’ rather than ‘gamers’ here because as an adult I wouldn’t want to be associated with the cringeworthy comments I see on this site daily on almost every single article.
I thought PC gamers were older than console gamers, and so more mature. At least that’s how the rhetoric goes. So why is this site’s comment’s section such a putrid vat of toxic attitudes?
I’ll be the first to admit my comments aren’t always as level-headed as I’d like them to be, but at least I try. Most of the other commenters here? They dive headfirst into playground concrete.
Forget this site. I’m going to go read Anandtech and PCPer. At least those sites have adults on them.
Although, it is beneficial for PC users if a console game runs at 30FPS and the PC port is good. Which means the game can actually tax the hardware.
Yup that’s true.
the only 60 fps games on the “current” gen consoles are ports of games from the previous generation. Thats like taking a DVD and Playing it in a blu ray.
That’s actually a nice comparison, i was like, damn this guy is smart.
Are you just flat out lying or don’t you know any better, and decided it would be a good idea to just talk about something you have no clue about?
http://www.giantbomb.com/60-fps-on-consoles/3015-3223/games/
So lets see i went threw the list and well 80% of those games are reboots of ps3 and 360 games or indie games. And those games that do run at 60 are not recorded for being all that stable at it and like 1 of them runs at 1080p. So my argument still stands 30FPS is the standard for consoles and there are not that many AAA titles that run at 60. But ether way this whole thing is a moot point at this point Bamco has already announced PC will be getting 60 FPS.
If there wasn’t a console version, there wouldn’t be a 30fps lock. End of story.
If there wasn’t a console version, there wouldn’t be a Dark Souls 3, since the Souls franchise is a console franchise first and foremost. End of story.
If there wasn’t a console version then there wouldn’t be dark souls. Be happy it’s even on pc.
“It’s a Developer’s/Publisher’s decision not to raise/remove the FPS Cap on the PC Port, yes.”
You go through your whole life with that circular non-logic like that? The PC version is at fault and ONLY the PC is to blame for that as there is 0% compulsion from consoles to make the game run at 30.
All that fuss and in the end you agree with them, pinning responsibility on the developers. And then, somehow, nonetheless, beyond all reason, logic and the laws of physics, still drag consoles into the equation.
You really are one vindictive, bitter guy aren’t you? It’s a running trend with PC evangelists who are notoriously negative so much so that they run blind with nonsensical bullshit to fulfill their anti-console vendettas.
And I’ve had enough of it frankly.
We see hilarious shit like PC gamers claiming to tell the difference between 30/60 (which IS possible) but then the person making the claim trips up that they can tell the difference themselves by using a counter-active example. Who cares as long as the console gets the shaft, right?
It’s why we see hilarious shit like PC gamers claiming they are an informed race of aryan overlords and then THEY are the dumbasses buying shitty games on Steam in droves and writing negative reviews (weren’t you guys bragging about how elitely informed you are about everything?) despite that fact many people DID know otherwise.
It’s why we see hilarious reactionary bullshit and cries of ‘console port’ around any article that the slightest hint of negativity… when 10 seconds of googling would tell you the source game was a PC exclusive.
Or because the so-called informed elites don’t understand how different elements of a game are supposed to work in certain genres (again, aren’t you guys supposed to be informed)?
Why is it that the one group that brags incessantly about being in the know is the one that repeatedly exposes themselves as ignorant?
Ponder that.
assuming they don’t use Denuvo cause if they do then Durante is gonna be limited probably. i mean right now in Japan even a Visual Novel company started using Denuvo (Akabeisoft 2) so i won’t be surprised.
oh noes my poor fps, whatever will happen, mah pc masterracefaggot
proof 30fps makes you retarded
hahaha
hahahaha
GG,now lets support them for this marvelous title at 30 fps. NOT.
Seriously they wanna push console sales,not PC sales.And they dont care for PC gamers.They are,first of all,console game publisher.
Here’s a fun fact:
“Dark Souls series creator, Bandai Namco, recently revealed the series
has sold over 8 million copies worldwide, but here’s an interesting
fact. PC sales accounted for 3.2 million, or 40% of overall sales,
despite the fact that the game is not fully optimized for the platform.”
The Souls franchise is on 4 different consoles, and yet the PC version accounts for 40% of the sales, it would be foolish of Bandai Namco to make a bad version for their biggest audience.
for anyone wondering if this is true on not, here’s the confirmation:
gamingboltDOTcom/dark-souls-3-hands-on-impressions-sacrifice-of-social-life
put . instead of DOT
and i quote: “As this was PC version I previewed the game on, being capped to thirty frames-per-second felt largely insulting,”
Dont use gamingbolt as a good source these morons make stuff up all the time to start wars in the comments.
today developing on PC costs a lot(optimization,improvement,etc…) and the piracy does not help …
Piracy does not help? Mmm more like developers and greedy publishers do not help!
that’s bull, its never been easier than before to port a game from a console to PC, thanks to the same architecture (x86),
and if you want to talk about piracy, in this case, the souls series on steam have sold more than 4 million copies on steam, DS1 sold well despite being a bad port, so the audience is there, im starting to think that either japanese developers are stupid or they know people will buy their stuff despite being badly ported.
What piracy? everything has denuvo. Also this company cant optimize for sht, look at bloodborne on ps4.
Photoshop FAIL… and i’m not joking it’s a Gmail template + image.
Looks like it’s gonna be Durante to the rescue again.
Lets hope because I don’t have high hopes on Japanese developers especially when it comes to PC.
If he even can. DaS2 couldn’t be uncapped from its 60 fps limit. This is apparently running on a new engine that’s only ever been used in Bloodborne before. It’s entirely possible the game could break past 30 fps.
…or don’t buy the f*cking game.
That won’t matter if the engine can’t handle past 30. I tried 60 fps on DakS. And it wasn’t bad, but had lots of weird performance bugs I didn’t get from 30.
If it’s smooth and has no drops I don’t really mind 30. FF type 0 played nice even though the frame rate was locked.
Smooth and 30FPS cannot co-exist, it’s either one or the other.
Cool, we both have opinions.
It’s not an opinion, it’s fact….
*a* fact.
My opinions aren’t facts…I knew that already.
You must be hard to be around if you think yours are.
If your “opinion” is that 30fps is “smooth” then that’s fine… It’s simply proof that your “opinion” isn’t worth $hit.
well what can I say, have a nice day.
30 fps
smooth
pick one
dark souls
smooth
pick one
Also in this game you need to time your dodges to the mil second.
Actually, there is a difference between “smooth” and higher framerates. I have a g-sync monitor and it displays games smoothly at 30 FPS. Granted, I’d rather play games at 60+ FPS (and I do), but there is a difference. It’s all about how a game is rendered. A game can run at 120 FPS, but stuttering and optimization issues will make it choppy and, consequently, not-smooth.
Looks fake.
im sure you can unlock it in an ibi file or some one will come out with a mod to unlock it.
we dont need this crap,why we have to open the stupid files ? why the devolopers so lazy ? meh at them.
Cinematic.
*facepalm* Some publishers/devs being slow to come around to 60/open-fps is one thing, but how in the hell do you go BACKWARDS on a feature you already introduced?
My head hurts. I need to lie down. I have my doubts as to whether this is true, but if it is… what even…
Dark Souls 2 was developed by a different team than that of the original. That’s got something to do with it I bet. Also, Bloodborne uses DS1 animations instead of the improved DS2 ones, so I assume they are using the DS1 engine as the base for DS3.
Dark Souls 3 is mostly B team, so mostly the same developers as Dark Souls 2. This is the most retarded decision ever made if it’s real. Also I prefer DS1 animations bruv.
why, why is that the PLAN? Is it just me or more and more publishers nowadays are trying to copy those lazy as*es over at Bethesda?
Ah, part of the old parity clause in Sony and Microsoft console publishing contracts that we never hear about because of non disclosure agreements?
No words from FromSoftware ?
They’re the one you need to ask about the game’s frame rate on PC.
Bandai response is generic and probably only concerns the console versions.
I refuse to believe they are that stupid they would take something away which the last 2 games had as standard. I should be paying Durante for having to fix this nonsense again.
F*ck you, FromSoft. I forgave them with DaS1 since they were new to PC game development & I only paid $5, but I’m skipping this entirely out of principle if this turns out to be true.
How exactly did you “forgive” them since you only paid 5$? Looks like it was your intention was to pick it up cheap either way.
the game is 60 fps everyone
How was not that the plan with dark souls 2?
What the f*ck is wrong with these B! cth as companies man with the limiting the PC platform. 2016 still the continue nonsense 30fps locked. SMH…. 2016 30fps locked on the PC… No sorry you ain’t getting into to my pockets
Did we really expect something else from this guys?
i expect nothing less from BandaiNamco, they barely put any effort in their ports, remember they couldn’t even properly port a game from 2003 without fill it with bugs, fps lock and DRM.
2003? WHICH GAME?
Tales of Symphonia
Im going to put it here… plain and very simple. If they give me 30 fps only, im gonna torrent this game so bad… and after that im going to seed this for some serious time.
Just sick of this cancer parity crap
You’re basically saying that you don’t want to pay for a turd, but you would gladly eat it for free.
By pirating it, you’re promoting a game, showing that you’re interested in it. If you want to hurt the publisher/developer, the best option is to ignore it.
The game was 60 fps confirmed now. But im with you on your post on that article. We can celebrate till the game is out and everything is running good
On the piracy thing,if a seed it im not promoting nothing. Im just showing how f up the game is. (I hope im mistake here)
Because i know there is a lot of people out there that try the games before buying them
2 different opinions on the same matter.
Do what you want man, just remember what I said. Also, it may have Denuvo. 😉
Okay then, your plan sucks hard.
nothing surprises me anymore at all. the industry, it’s companies and customers disappointed us again and again. the majority just don’t get it until it’s too late. when i was a kid i was a casual and even then i had higher standards.
people that pre-order anything and support shady practices like this, do you know what they are? they are part of the data companies gather to measure the ignorance of their customers. .
companies that keep using shady practices, do you know what they are? they are making money by tricking kids. they are pathetic creatures with no dignity.
also, don’t really get your hopes up for Durante that much. what if they use Denuvo? you know recently even a Visual Novel company started using it, so you can thank Square Enix for making it a thing in Japan and thank people that keep buying games with Denuvo. this is all assuming Denuvo can affect Durante’s fix though.
logically customers should hurt Bandai badly by refunding if this 30 fps cr*p is true, but somehow i think From Software is gonna get away with it. cause it’s cool to like difficult games or something childish like that right now. they did get away with Bloodborne too remember? what’s the difference between what Ubi is doing and what FromSoftware did exactly? they both reskin and tweak their games and sell them yet many only bash Ubi. see? so far they seem like a one trick pony and they are milking it as hard as possible. Dark Souls 3 is basically Demon Souls 5 and the first one came out in 2009…not that much time has passed to have a 5th entry.
I agree pretty much here. But Bloodborne was on PS4. Console gamers accept 30fps since their hardware has limitations and most games are released with 30fps. For them its not much of a deal! What you pay is what you get. But we are talking for PC here! This 30fps thing is absurd! Pre-orders should be cancelled and buys should be put on hold till an official fix. If they add Denuvo on top of that personally I will never buy the game. I love Souls games I’ve hundreds of hours with those games but I am not a kid anymore and actions like these must be punished in every way that I can! And what I can is not to give my money and support them!
souls fans will play regardless of the fps.they will use a controller and play.
If they add Denuvo too they can go suck my dìck.
did they like honestly learn nothing by now? yet supposed “master racers” will buy this crap…. ughhhh.
no no no plz not 30fps god no not for this game
This is why I haven’t purchased a single Dark Souls game. PC gamers show major love and receive none back in return -_-
Not even sure why they would bother trying 30fps we will just mod it out. Possibly hurting the experience even more and forcing them to patch it anyway like pretty much every AAA title in the past 2 years.
There will be community fix for this so fast, you wont even be able to spell 30 fps 🙂
What’s the big deal? Everyone loves the fast action etc when it’s shown and now complain knowing that was 30fps? What’s wrong with people nowadays? lol
The right thing to do is to cancel your pre-order! And don’t make pre-order people there is no good reason to. On the other hand there are plenty of good reasons NOT to!
Praise the Sun!! haha =) I’ve just read about that! Great news!!
This is crazy. That game badly needs 60 fps. The way you fight and move.. it just needs it.
Its not like an RTS game thats ok at 30.. (C&C 3)
Boom! goes the dynamite XD
I’m happy that these games come to pc. But for FFS man, at least make an effort to do it properly. Then, they’ll blame PC gamers that they don’t buy their games… —__—
Harley siad ? Which Harley? Harley Queen? Did she left the Joker and found a job as a game developer on Namxo?
Something that should make all PC gamers boycott it.
The human eye can only perceive 20 fps anyway

FFS I love the series but this will piss me off. DkS2 at 60fps felt so gooood.
Of course its gonna be a bad port…. its Dark Souls.
poor masterrace to be hit with parity.
You lot can all calm your panties. The official Dark Souls twitter confirmed it’s 60fps.
Tis not 60. Just rendered video at 60.
Considering the games sold a lot on PC, I’m surprised they’re dumb enough to do this

We’ve already posted a story for Dark Souls III PC supporting 60fps 😉
