I forgot to ask. I'm assuming you have the PS3 version. How is the frame rate?

I haven't played enough to judge or analize, but It is important to notice that roll dodging works well all the time if you roll in the right direction, if the enemy swings with a sword you have to dodge backward, the he attack vertically you have to roll left or right , which leaves an opening to perform a backstab, that is a new stragical depth you probably can not have by blocking.

Also, maximum equip load does not level up with stamina this time around, you need both to have a good poise build in addition to strength, as equip load means shorter recovering time.

I have not notice any drop yet, but I have not played enough to judge

I can accept dips, but Blighttown was so so bad.

87.

Guessing you are basing that off the Network Test-Beta.  That was not the final product.  They have had over 2 years to make this game, and this will be their 3rd time at it.  Do you really think they are going to mess up the most basic mechanics?

100000000/10

Anything lower is clear bashing.

personally 87 because of the difficulty it will be that

I'm afraid I don't buy into the conspiracy of developers/publishers paying off review sites for scores.  Besides, I never said that freshness and originality are the only determinants of a good score, just a factor that could potentially affect a sequel.  I do agree that large, successful titles often have high scores, because critics are often tremendous fans themselves (e.g., many CoD reviews are done by fans of the series).

Back on topic, I'm just hoping that From Software can deliver a much more polished PC version, so I'm definitely waiting to see what the reviews are for that platform.

85%.
