...listen, i'm a huuuge demon/dark souls fan. HUGE. but by march i'll have a ps4. by march i'll have a ps4 backlog 5-6 games deep with several more just around the corner. i'll play a next gen port of DS2 (even a late one) but i don't think i'll be turning my ps3 on anymore by march.


That's the kind of mentality that could potentially hurt Dark Souls II; and the one I'm expecting even from some of the DS fanbase. I can understand not all people will have time and money by the time DS2 arrives, but the fact that there's no next-gen port makes it even less bearable now.

yeah, and i'm pretty sure i won't be the only one.   ...thing is, with DS i played it exclusively for about 8 months straight.  that kind of "commitment" right after getting a ps4 is just not appealing.   had it hit this holiday i would have been there but that delay to 2014 killed it for me.   that late and a next gen port is manditory if they want to retain their audience.

Same here, I did 3 full playthroughs of Dark Souls before getting bored. The game asks a lot of initial commitment, which I could have given it over the holidays, as I did with Dark Souls. By the time it comes out I'll be tempted to play ps4 a lot more. My time goes to GT6 this holiday. After seeing initial sales for that drop so much, I don't expect Dark souls 2 to do much better.

The timing sucks, March 11. The game is great to play during the dark winter months. Come spring I'll be less in the mood to crawl around in the dark. A November 2014 ps4 port sounds good.
