How "bad" is this game optimized for PC?

[Gerald of Pollanalty]

Planning on buying it now, but I need to know the main issues first because I've heard a few negative things about the PC version. Thanks.

Pretty bad.

With the DSfix it runs completely fine.

Graphics-wise? I have a 360 controller, or does the DSfix also fix graphics?

i have no problem with the 30 fps lock and i think it runs great but you really need a 360 pad for this game.

The game have 30 fps lock the Dsfix Unlock this, it will not be as good as it should have been if it was a pc game right from the start but still better than the console version :

Reading some of the gripes as we speak...

Terrible textures, 30fps lock, resolution limited to 720. People are calling it the worst port ever.

What exactly does DSfix, fix?

Everything you just listed.

I own ps3 version and decided as it is on offer to buy it as a back up for if i get rid of my ps3,few ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ but thats mostly switching controler,to me this is worth the purchase and i already own it.
I will say i have only played the first 15 or 20 mins but apart from being GFWL i have no issue with it as yet.

I play this game with no "fixes" and i am fully happy with the expirence. I would never play with a keyboard and mouse however, so use a controller and its great.

that word was meant to be n.i.g.g.l.e.s it's not racist steam mods.

I torrented this a while back (going to buy it now) and the only issue I found was the controls, and believe me, that is a HUGE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ issue. I have a 360 controller but if you don't, don't even consider buying this.

It runs identical to the Consoles, except with DSFix it will have rendering features like AA, Anisotropic Filtering and depth of field.

best part? BLIGHTTOWN DOESN'T LAG.

It's the superior version if you have a controller.

Some of the better Dark souls players use K&M so no not really...

blighttown still suffers, just like many other areas in the game. The only exception is if you have a computer powerful enough to handle the badly opitmized areas in the game.
