The Souls series has never been about the visuals. However, I don't think there is anything particularly wrong with the screenshots in the OP. It already looks better than Dark Souls II.

And a 150-pages topic on neogaf, without non-stop port-begging, it really shows how much we are waiting for such a title
I love the dead leaves, the tombstones. Feels much more natural than DrK2's scenery (some levels were truly awful - Brightstone cove, for example ?); the game felt devoid of an art direction.

Just look at that. It looks a generation above DSII!
Why try to comment and downplay when the Internet is doing all the advertising for you?

Modders will be able to fix how it looks, probably, or for a large part anyway. They won't be able to fix the basic geometry and layout of some of the levels

Yep, eager to try it
Too bad the official site is crap; still looking for that directx wrapper dll, ah ah.

Boris already made it look better than that. Of course there are things that all ENBs of the world can not fix, but it goes a LONG way.

I only brought it up, because from my understanding is
Seath is a dragon, but you never encounter him as a dragon. I believe you fight a humanoid manifestation of him in King's Field III. I find it interesting that Seath's actual appearance as a dragon is in Dark Souls.

Watching this again, where did all the textures and lighting go? I'm sure my PC is more than strong enough to play that easily.
That thread was a graveyard.

This is what I use. I modified it quite a bit, but this should give you a general idea. Of course the whole model can not be replaced, but you would be amazed if you saw some other areas.
Sadly, this is not a good showcase video and I am way too lazy to make mine.
There are many differect presets with very different moods, the original ENB preset from the guy who did this video is closer to that prerelease lighting, darkness and mood.

this is done on an earlies version of the ENB, now it is even better.

Iron Keep with my modified dramatic preset made my jaw hit the floor.
Yeah the
Seath you fight in King's Field 3 looks more like an organic mech or something.

There can be only one Souls' "ENB"!
fake edit:
And one Big Boss!

doesn't work anymore? It has to be in capital letters now?

Yep, googling ENB for Dark Souls sucks if you don't mean Marcus.

I know probably got answered somewhere in the 7000+ posts, but is this going to be like a typical souls game, or is this just a new IP that happens to be from From Software?
FunkyLounge

We have no idea, but from the little info we have it seems right in between of those.

Haha, I can imagine.
Seeing ENB mentioned here, when it's not about Marcus, is still confusing for me (at first glance).

Since GAF betrayed my covenant and killed me with the void, I am now a buff icon from the equipment you made with my soul, jerks
I hope said fans realize that Sony also owns a Souls branded IP. They are sitting on a gold mine and it would be a shame if they don't leverage it post Dark Souls success. It's not like FROM will put a stop to the DaS franchise, just so happens that going forward there will be two franchises from the Souls, probably alternating release to become an annual sort of IP.

Some people pushed the idea of a spiritual successor of Shadow Tower Abyss with some flavor from Stephen King's Dark Tower series, too ;p
Truth is we know next to nothing for the time being. The wait for E3 will be a long one.
I don't think they'll call it Demon's Souls 2, and I don't think the IP is a gold mine at all. It's practically worthless when all you have to do is change the first word and you can own the IP again. Sony own Demon's Souls, sure, and if they wanted, Microsoft could own Drowned Souls, and Nintendo could own Doomed Souls, etc.
What's valuable is the team, and the fandom that surrounds their releases.

random observation, the font using for "dark side box" looks just like the font used in the dark souls logo

Done. Also added a little extra
Had to look a bit to find the extra, nice touch.
If you could let me aboard the train aswell that would be awesome
.But Sony IS having key members of the team on this, therefore the IP IS a gold mine. They're not just shitting out their own Souls game and hoping the name carries it to sales. They have more key Souls leadership on this than DaS2 did.
(Also, any room for me on this train?
)Absolutely so its a good thing Sony were able to bring back the team who put Demon's Souls together. I personally see Miyazaki sticking to Sony's IP whilst the new team work on the DaS series, I'm sure they will grow into a fine studio by listening to the fanbase and fixing what wasn't liked about DaSII

The Dark Side Box came out in January of 2007 so far far far before Dark Souls came out. Hell thats still 2 years before Demon Souls came out.
not sure how that contradicts what i said? haha
Not at all.
Demon's Souls 2 is not a more advantageous name than D???? Souls, the IP isn't worth much at all. The team making a Souls game is, but that's what I wrote.
The souls series is kings field in my mind. I don't think From would ever go first person again, because I think 3rd person is closer to what they always envisioned and what they wanted to do all along, they just didn't because of technical hurdles. Bringing it back to first person would be moving backwards and a downgrade. Souls is the field games evolved. Dark, depressing, difficult, hidden doors with nothing behind them, etc.

I'm on the train. Woo!
It certainly is, and personally, I would have been playing on PS4 anyway, so the exclusivity is actually a benefit to me, so I'm not complaining about it at all.
I am very interested to see how they handle Dark Souls from now on. Is Beast Souls March '15 and Dark Souls 3 March '16? I would be concerned for the future of the franchise if they're coming that regularly, and I can't see Sony or Namco electing to favor four year cycles to keep each other happy.
And what buff will you be providing on the glorious NG+ train with Cerny world tendency?

I will honestly throw a bitchflip if this turns out to be a PS3 exclusive.
This is why I am not buying into it yet, I believe there IS a Project Beast. We just don't know everything about it, and there's things that could ruin it for me.
