http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ one of the most elitist PC centric gaming blogs on the net has attracte 8 pages of comments (on the first day) in support of Dark Souls being available on the PC.

Looks unlikely tho

I'd rather see major balance and glitch fixes for the console versions first. Also, a little more direct contact with the community from both FS and Namco.

The game is still broken. Been helping a friend who's new and it's downright disgusting the end game characters that are invading and harassing legitimate players. They literally need over built bodyguards to even have a chance to ward them off. And then you run into issues with Whites one shotting the early bosses...

What a mess.

I very much support the idea of PC Dark Souls.

The very main reason for is this: Third Party Mods.

Like Oblivion, Fallout, and Skyrim, it is the Mods that makes the majority of PC/overall sales. Having Fans themselves balance, adding items, textures, quests, etc to the game extends playability.

Personally I find Dark Souls storyline to be laughably bad - FAR inferior than Demon's Souls' unique narrative, where one can shape the story on their own. In Dark Souls, there are so few NPCs and narrative. Hell we don't even have a conclusion in this game! We had an introductive narrative but never a conclusion. What was that?

I have my own ideas of the Covenant system:

Sunlight Brothers: Automatically be in a list where you are asked to help anybody in the realm to complete a level WITHOUT you having to go to a specific spot to lay a summoning sign for THAT specific level. (It'll be universal)

Forest Covenant: This is Arena. Allow more lighting in the Forest. Players will be listed and can organize themselves into two factions: Protectors and invaders (blue and red). Full 3 vs 3 battle.

Princess Guard: Those who wants to assist "Boss Specific" events. They are given the ability to Heal. Reverse of the Sunlight Cov. of offensive spells.

Dragon Covenant: Another Arena, but taken place in Ash Lake. This one can allow players to have restraints and restrictions of certain spells, weapons, etc. If one desires, they may fight someone with the same skill ratio! (Stats, weapons, etc) Also, this is a 1 vs 1 battle compared to the 3 vs 3 of Forest Cov.

Gravelord: That actually works this time............ I don't even need to go into detail..

With this said I have to end it by saying, this game is broken and not finished. I pray they'd make a refurnished version of this game for the PC and do a major overall patch similar to what they did for Witcher 2 (famous 2.0 patch). But for now and forever more... I'd be playing Demon's Souls for true enjoyment. I love the Tendency events.

So they can pirate it and put nude mods on it? I really hope this doesn't happen.

PC players can be quite tell they get the console (well ps3 i could careless about xbox) fixed and patched and balanced before they develop a new game for PC

F*** PC...............

lolwut??
do you have some personal grievance with the PC, or are you just very simple (or both)?

I find its nice to be able to play games using up to date and very awesome hardware, and not just play games on a box with 7 (yes,SEVEN) year old technology in it that can barely even handle a game like Dark Souls, but whatever dude, for all i know you probably use crayons and plastic forks.

Not really all that... jus f*** PC. Lol, nah jk. Wish theyd update it with more patches/ expansions on consols tho. I believe Im going to b playing this game for a while and many will. The massive amount of time and online interaction that can b put in makes it almost like MY mmorpg. Everyone has THAT game, well this is mine and I wish they would keep it up to date. Too bad xbox pc and ps3 couldnt play online together.

If they have the balls to release a PC version without actually finishing/balancing the game...

Seriously. From what I hear about Demon's Souls, it sounds like From actually cared about their supporters, but if they divert resources that could be spent re-balancing the game into making a port, that's just pathetic.

I believe they should patch the game before releasing for the PC. Main thing it being on the PC may fix is the framerate issues in places like blighttown. I honestly doubt it would look 10X better than it already does. Graphics are just a plus anyway, they are not where games started.

The true great thing about this going to the PC is the additional content we could get from modders. I get sick of people always going apeshit over graphics. *cough* Bethesda forums.

A PC port for Dark Souls does sound very interesting and I'm always amazed at what the modding community does (except for the naked character models). Although I'd most likely miss out since my PC's specs are sub-par and crashes so much that the color of my eyes changed to blue.

I'd buy it again!

It'd be a port though and From aren't PC developers, so mod tools are unlikely. If it was to be modded I doubt you'd see much complexity.

I wouldn't buy it on PC. I bought my PS3 in order to get PC par graphics without having to deal with antivirus scans, spyware, install requirements, GPU and driver incompatibilities. Dark Souls still feels unfinished - this is more obvious after playing Demon Souls for two weeks over the holidays. I would be very irritated if the publisher pushed them to service a new field of customers, when the customers that have already bought the game are waiting for it to be fixed.

I still can't find players to coop or pvp against. Sometimes it takes 15-20 minutes waiting at Anor Londo bonfire before I invade (after a couple sessions I just get tired of waiting and log off). The coop clusters are a step back from the Demon Souls architecture. Fix that first before getting greedy for more platforms.

I would buy it again for the PC. It doesn't run well on consoles in some places. So the "PC par graphics" doesn't really apply. Since consoles can't even run the game properly. There's massive framerate issues in some places.

My PC is a beast, as I'm sure a lot of people here also have. Being able to run DS with even nicer graphics and smoother to boot would be pretty awesome. Not to mention the possibility of higher resolutions etc.

yeah 5+ years ago that would of made sense,
graphics arent what makes great games anyway.
Personally i think the game is great even with its current graphics, but graphics arent the only thing that a PC could do better.
The point is moot anyway. There wont be a PC port. (any time soon).

just noticed the petition has almost 60,000 sigs in under 4 days, pretty impressive
