A Petition to Bring Dark Souls to PC

If there’s one highly-regarded RPG from 2011 that I wish I had spent more time with, it’s From Software’s Dark Souls. But my gaming time on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 is very limited, and that’s why I’m excited to see that Namco Bandai isn’t just considering a PC port, but they’ve even sanctioned a petition to see if there’s enough support from the community to make it worth their while. You know what to do:

Dark Souls is a critically acclaimed game, developed by From Software, known for its high level of difficulty and innovative online features. The problem? It’s not on PC!

A port of this game has a high chance of being extremely successful for From Software and Namco Bandai. Given the sales of games such as The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and The Witcher, there is a large market for games like this. PC gamers love unforgiving, hardcore games.

A port may also mean that the area’s in the game, such as Blighttown, won’t suffer from slowdown. An online oriented video game is also perfect for the capabilities of a PC. Steam would also be suitable venue provided the game is sold at a reasonable price for a late port. Steamworks could provide a strong and easy to use online infrastructure.

So please sign this petition if you wish for a PC port of Dark Souls.
