Prepared To Die Edition or Remastered?

[illa]

So I have both of these games in my library, I'll play both of them eventually but was wondering as a new player which should I play first, are there any big differences, should I go with Prepared To Die, is it more of a classic experience or is there not much difference other than graphical? I've had the Prepared To Die edition in my library for years but I just never gave the souls games a real go

PtD is probably still plagued by connectivity issues, such that you'll need third party mods if you want to actually connect for invasions and such. However, it also doesn't have the online babysitter that might slap your hands if you do any modding.

There's only one Dark Souls, and you must start from it.

PtDE feels and looks better if you use Dsfix. No online anymore though. It was the best.

You don't need Dsfix, it's already look pretty nice. By default PTDE is visualy superior to remaster that took a big dump and piss on it and called it "remaster"

Devs of Dark Soul port could just fix some fps issues of PTDE and done, absolute perfection. But no! We have to make "remaster" that butchered Dark Souls graphics to squeze few more fps, smeared it with s**t, de-list and ban original version from purchasing and increase price of "Demaster" by 2x of what PTDE used to cost and call it a day.
Greed and 0 quality control.

There is extremely little difference outside of aesthetics and online play, and the remaster has been hammered since day one for looking worse in terms of atmosphere and mood, even if it is numerically superior.

Remastered. You can't even buy PTDE anymore so is not like there is much of a choice, you can mod the Remaster to look more like PTDE. Also, watch out for system requirements, i've seen some people who couldn't play DS1R because of compatibility i think.

Bro skipped where OP said "So I have both of these games in my library."

They don't though. Notice there is no mouse icon next to their name, that would indicate they own it (hover over it on anyone that has it), you and i have the icon, because we own it, OP does not have the icon, so they do not have PTDE.
