The thing is, it runs at 60fps on console too, ~99% time on PS4 and ~94% time on XB1 (and that was from some of the worst moments selected in one video).

Are you sure it runs 100% of the time at 60fps on your PC? Have you analysed it with a special software tool on several hours of gaming? Can you notice short frame drops when you are really busy fighting a boss?

That's really the problem with PC gamers. They think that their games run 100% time at 60fps when usually it's far from being the case as there are almost always minimun fps drops under 60fps but they fail to notice them and compare those subjective findings to console frame rate stress videos where only the worst moments are shown on the video.

Wow.  Really? Yes I'm sure.  Steam has an FPS counter.  It does not drop below 60FPS while in the game.  Ever. During boss fights, in big open areas.  You name it.  I've noticed it go to 45 on the loading screen. Once.  Read up on things before you go generalizing about an entire group of gamers.

Are some people on here so insecure that they must ALWAYS pick a side no matter what the conversation is about? Why is it that the second someone mentions something about performance, people go on the defensive?


You have a fps counter, but have you got a way to keep in memory the lowest fps number reached?

Anyway I admit that I was generalizing. Maybe Dark souls 2 is the exception to the rule in PC gaming. Because my "generalization" works pretty well in many others game like Far Cry 4 or PVZ garden warfare for instance.
