Cool. Is the remaster switch exclusive? Because that would be annoying.

No official announcements but most websites are making it seem as if it's also for PS4 and xbone

Kinda sweet. Are they overhauling the combat or is it just graphics and such?

Kinda not sure if I want it. I already have the prepare to do edition on steam. But I do love dark souls, so I'll probably get it.

Kinda wish they would remaster demons' souls though

Why would a game applauded for its combat in recent times overhaul its combat in a remaster?

Because the combat in dark souls 3 and bloodborne is better , imo

I wouldn't say that it's better, more that it's different.
It's more plodding, tactical, and resource-managementy. Not really what you expect fir a third person action game, but that's what it is.

If it's just a graphics overhaul with some minor rebalancing, then meh. It's probably my least favorite Souls game.

If they add improvements from later games in like powerstance, respec, etc then I'm interested.

I'm expecting the former, though.

how is it going to be remastered? switch is powerful as the ps3. so i'm guessing it's going to be 720p 30 fps. maybe 1080p in dock, but the pc is already 1080p and that's not the remastered.

they should just called it dark soul pc edition.

It might be for PC too.

I've followed DkS1 all last year and Bamco ignored it every time a steam sale came around.

Though the pessimist in me is saying they just didn't want to jeopardize the switch sale.

The announcement is Switch only, but rumor favors PC, PS4, and XB1 along with the Switch.

The remaster includes the Artorius DLC, but is limited to improved framerate and resolution from what I understand. No major overhaul.

switch is twice as powerful
it does AAA games at 900p 720p 60frames

Dark souls needs some of it's hitboxes worked on tho, particularly in blight down, world of ariana

Does anyone else get really bummed out on seeing "remastered" crap released? It's like, you've experienced the good game before, it's literally just the same experience with slightly better graphics/fps. It's not very much to look forward to.

I'd be much more excited to see a release date for that new "Shadows Die Twice" Fromsoft game, if it's a soulsborne type of game.

It might give someone who couldn't play before a chance to play the game. Like if they didn't have the a system that had he game before. Or money to get it at the time. Or wasn't really into it before or something. Personally, I don.'think really care for it. But someone else might.

No one is forcing you to buy the remaster, and you're still getting the "Shadows Die Twice" game eventually. Not sure what you're so bummed about. Both games can exist. Like LinkPizza pointed out, there are plenty of people who haven't played it yet, for whatever reason. They may have incentive to pick up the remaster.

And even if people who have already played it buy the remaster, so what? It's their money.

I had played the PC port but wouldn't mind replaying this if it comes to PC and with more reliable connection with friends. I thought the way Dark Souls III handled it made it very reliable.

This is why I am totally okay with remasters. I probably won't get it because I've had my fill of ds1, but if this let's someone that hasn't played it yet enjoy it I am down with that.

very clever as it means more sales for replacing a broken switch

dark souls 1 is actually one of the few games that does need a remaster. it was never particularly well optimized in the first place, and 2 and even 3 blow it out of the water in terms of performance and stability.
