Dark Souls: Remastered took its time to land on Nintendo Switch but the wait is now over. Without further ado, you can watch these few minutes of gameplay captured in docked mode obviously.
The Switch version looks very good. Much better than the X360 and PS3 versions. I would even say it looks better than the old "Prepare to Die" edition on PC without the DSFix by Durante.
The image looks very sharp, I believe resolution is at 1080p, though will have to wait for Digital Foundry's verdict. Still, the game looks much better than I thought it would.
Just interested to know how stable the performance is, specially in a place like Blighttown. Dark Souls doesn't require 60fps, as long as the framerate is rock solid. Other than that, this looks incredibly good, even more so keeping in mind the limited hardware specs of the Switch.
PS. It still blows my mind how great this game looks. At times it feels like I'm watching the Remastered PC version. Is this the best looking game on Switch?

And there is obvious slowdown on undead burg. framerate or shit framepacing. Still, PTDE is still WAYS better than Demaster edition, just for that.

@Melmoth: in another note, Crystal Dynamis abysmal Laura Craft franchise irks me so much, it gives me life when anyone finally pick'em up for the first time and makes a thread: LTTP - Worst game I (2 Hours ago)

@nostradamus: the old Lawrence Holland SW games (as well as his WW2 flight sims) were made for a different audience. Elegant games for a more civilized age. (4 Hours ago)

in the end there is still a whole lot more missions to go, but EA will never not "MassProduceFrame" this franchise, so no more EA for me. (it was a gift) - The respawn game is indeed an odd one out. (10 Hours ago)

@Melmoth: yhea, but i still think the missions are the tipical EA clones, not a dent on Lucas Arts/Totallygames. Apt, as a new age Star Wars fast food junk. That VR Mission was some bait&switch. (10 Hours ago)

@nostradamus: You use the PSVR? SW Squadrons is really cool in VR. The feeling of zipping past a star destroyer in a x-wing is a childhood dream come true. (18 Hours ago)

@Melmoth: psvr 2.0, its bad too, really bad. and no up/down adjust (1 Day ago)
