    I just don't see any reason to buy it again on PC, even with the 50% discount. Can't justify paying 20€ for a revised lighting system when the game's still locked to just 60 fps with very few...

    I just don't see any reason to buy it again on PC, even with the 50% discount. Can't justify paying 20€ for a revised lighting system when the game's still locked to just 60 fps with very few graphical improvements. DSFix is fine as it is.

    It's a shame the servers aren't shared between versions as this effectively splits the PC community into 2. Wish they had gone the Bethesda route and just straight up offered the enhanced edition to all previous buyers - and we know how much Bethesda loves milking Skyrim remasters for full-price in every system imaginable.

      Estus for phantoms, extra phantoms, dead angling removal, dried finger in early game, broken ass weapon upgrade matchmaking, extra bonfires... Did you know the astora straight sword counts as a +10 weapon ? Pick that up and you've locked yourself out of early game co-op.

      The remaster was definitely targeted at consoles, similar to what happened to Skyrim. As far as quality goes, you're probably better off going for mods instead of the remastered version.

    If From was willing to cheap out and make a "remaster" like this, they'll do it again in a few years. I can wait.

    I've got a ps3 and pc copy, there's no reason to get this version. It's uglier too for some reason.
