i loving called it
lighting makes everything much nicer to look at but still isnt anything mindblowing
if you have dark souls 1 already theres legit no reason to pick this up, get the new monster hunter or something
dont even say you want to experience the dark souls 1 multiplayer cuz that stuff is a dumpster fire
the remaster will have increased players connected at once and will have dedicated servers for online stuff. P2P connections were the reason you could lagstab in DS1.
Online play in general is getting quality of life updates with password matchmaking, with the soul level matching mechanic from DS3
PVP is getting a quality of life updating by preventing the use of any healing items besides estus as an invading phantom, and phantoms will have their number of estus halved.
I do wish they had done more with the lighting. All I can see is that they toned down the extremely shiny reflections and improved some minor effects like fire. I also think they should've taken the UI and made it less bulky and obnoxious, kind of like DS3.
If this remaster's online play is executed well, I think it'll create a split between DS3 and DSR pvp.
Maybe OnlyAfro will come back?
