Yeah normally that's done on New Game+ though you can kill him here as well.
Spoiler:
You need the black bombs - whatever their name was - starting gift for it, which means giving up early access to the master key and other interesting items.

What is sad is that a game like Dark Souls deserve much much better than this. Its like they said " OK PC Gamers , you want a port so here is one now shut up".
As i said before anyone who want to play this and has a console is better off getting it for that instead. Personally i will download it on PC just to see how shitty of a port it is
Could give a shit less if that means no more "amazing" ports from them but this is a fucking joke and they should get NOTHING FOR SUCH AN INSULT OF A PORT.
FUCKING DERPS. I HOPE THEY GO BROKE.
Main PC : I7 12700, MSI Ventus RTX 4090 24gb, Alienware AW3423DW QD-OLED

Yes, S.S.S, that's the only reason this is so sad. The game could've been glorious with proper PC options and something as basic as proper resolutions. Game would look pretty good with proper AA at 1440p+.
But why do people insist on saying it's better to get it for consoles when it's the exact same version with supposedly better FPS(journos had to be lying if the FPS isn't better in the shitty areas)? The whole problem is that it's too much like the console versions, not that it's worse.

Top seller in Steam and in GMG you're out of luck.

Considering there's no other titles atm, i'm not surprised .
And with a 640x480 framebuffer, game won't start with mouse+kb connected to the PC and some other things to get them the fine prize of being the worst port ever. They only got top 3 this time around!

In my case its out of principle. With a PC port i at least expect proper resolution. Im not asking for the moon , just not some shit sub par upscaled resolution.
Another reason is that the population is probably higher on consoles if you want to play online. I doubt this shit PC port will be vastly populated as a lot of people will probably play the pirated version offline.
Edit OK i take back what i just said about online population seeing that its a top seller on Steam. I still maintain my first point though.
It's not about the visuals rather than the gameplay, right? Right ... ?
If the game covers the company's sales expectations, maybe the next FS game will also arrive on the PC. And maybe, just maybe, they will have learnt from their mistakes with this port and will have ironed them out in the next?
this looks nicer than what we have
what the hell kind of version they used for demos and preview? just to fuck with people so they wold buy it
god damn liars if they just made their demo look presentable
The preview versions could run at 1080 but had severe performance issues if those reports about it were correct.
(This is locked to 720 plus I imagine the video makes it look a bit nice than it is via blur and such, you can set the game to run at 1024x768 or what the nearest 16:9 res would be and it would look about the same since it then switches to downampling instead of upscaling for resolution thus making things sharper and less aliased.)

Just pirate the PC version, and then pick it up when it's on sale/someone fixes the frame buffer. I never said anyone should buy the PC version now, because they shouldn't, not in this state and not for that amount of money.
If you have to play it online right now, PC version is still the version to get because of the (supposedly) better FPS and lack of shitty XBL. I still wouldn't support such a PC port, but it is what it is.

Or they figure, as the incompetent devs they are, "We can make money while putting in no effort! We've struck a goldmine!" and the next one will be just as bad or worse.

how does it look better?
that video is ca. 800x600, put on full screen and look at it.
LOL at the mouse-look movement. its like they bound static 8 directions of a d-pad to the motions of the mouse. up,up-left etc etc. its awful!
Wow, is mouse movement really this bad? If I plug my mouse into my PS3 with my XIM Edge, "Demon's Souls" feels almost exactly like a PC game. I can turn quickly with the mouse and even aiming with diagonal movements is very PC like.
If the mouse works so well with the PS3 version of DeS idk how it could be so bad with DaS PC?
