From Software’s PC ports are always pretty poor, but I feel like they don’t get enough flak for it because it’s a From Software game. Does the game still not run with an unlocked frame rate?
Then there always seems to be so much talk about the apparent difficulty of the game that talking about the actual game sometimes falls short. The difficulty of these games is mostly down to observing and learning attack patterns and reacting to them accordingly. It would also be rather trivial for the developers to add a difficulty setting to make the game more accessible or on the other hand make it harder for players that want more of a challenge (I’m aware that there are certain builds that make the game easier and new game + makes it harder in some ways).
The fact that many players always defend the games supposed difficulty often doesn’t allow good discussion about actual balancing (which is different to “difficulty”).
