Edit: Brad on GB just said it sounded like it was going to be longer than a few weeks. If true that's a damn shame.
Yeah, that's a bummer. As long as we get a good port out of it, then I'm good with a delay.

NICE! Finally debunked the rumors that roll doesn't have invincibility frames.
What time was the PC version discussed?

Around the 12 minute mark if memory serves. Sounds like they're trying to do something special for PC? I immediately thought of modding tools, but that's pure speculation on my part.
Edit: 10:45 is when Brad asks about PC.
Looks like I'll have to play TitanFall until then.Edit: Brad on GB just said it sounded like it was going to be longer than a few weeks. If true that's a damn shame. So much for lead platform.
I actually believed you. I was watching video waiting for them to show the bat. Haha im dumbIts the newest boss u have to fight. Its a bat thats in a coma. U kind of just walk in and stab it it once because its in a coma.
The stream doesn't start until 15 minutes in on my end.
Surprisingly, I felt there were many callbacks to the original Souls title, Demon's Souls.
Sweet!Darks Souls II seems to be a nice blend of the best qualities from both its predecessors.
Can't wait! Sounds like I'll be double dipping for console and PC!

In the Giantbomb video, he clearly rolled towards a spear attack and didn't get hurt.wait, where does that say that? I didn't have them in the network test.
Well ya, the response Brian gave in the GB interview made it sound like it was farther away, but the interview on Gamespot made it seem like it wasn't going to be that long of a wait.

Can we get a link to the Gamespot interview, maybe throw it in the OP as well.
Are you sure that's invincibility frames and not just the hitbox going under the spear?

What time does it occur in the interview? Still watching Giantbomb stream trying to get to that portion.
I would probably trust the gamestop interview since that is direct information from the developers, rather than the Giantbomb which is secondary.
Fuck you might be right... damn it!
Ugh I was considering getting a used PS3 for Demon Souls and hearing about the PC version being ways off is making it even more tempting. But I don't want to give into Namco's artificial delaying bullshit. But I also don't want to spend a month listening to people talk about the game without being able to play it.
I really hope the Giant Bomb folks are wrong about the 2 month plus wait for the PC version.
Its going to be especially difficult if people are calling it better than Dark Souls 1 or GOTG.
I'll wait, nothing but patient here.
I can't believe two months.
Everything we have heard so far is 2 weeks, 3 maximum.

If it really was just a few weeks after, why wouldn't they just give the release date?
They talk about the PC version at around 39:20 for anyone wondering (Giantbomb stream).

Publishers usually delay PC games in fear of piracy. If Bamco is worried about that, they probably believe obfuscating the release date will get pirates to buy the console version or better yet, get the crazies to double up.
Or we could give From the benefit of the doubt since they're using a new engine, are still pretty new to PC in general, and want to make sure it's up to peoples' standards.
The PC version is also going to have a pretty limited retail release, so it could also be a matter of nailing down the details on that.
A lot of questions on the PC release date, did they mention anything about that?
Ya, the interview we put up a couple hours ago addresses that. Sounds like, don't hold your breath. I don't know where I had gotten this idea that it was only a few weeks after, but reading between the lines it sounds like it might be a little while.
The thing they did say though was
A. From is doing the PC port. Learned a lot from the first one so PC people aren't going to get screwed on the technical side again.
B. The reason it is coming later is because they are taking the time to do it right.

I have a real hard time believing its not just an upgraded version of the phrye engine. Real hard time.
I'm a little concerned with the block and stun animations. Maybe the character in the giantbomb b-roll just had a ton of poise, but there were a few times were he just didn't react at all to getting hit. Something about that just seemed off.
Loved this video, everything about it looked much more "Souls" than other videos from DkS2, if that makes sense. HYPE!!IGN video preview

FROM said in an interview that I read somewhere sometime ago that there was no more invincibility frames...I wonder how it would work, like stopping the animation altogether or just damage..
Also, I wonder if backstabs during online play are still a thing... It was infuriating to get backstabbed while you were a mile away..
