Dark Souls Has Online Issues in Japan, Fix Coming Next Week

It seems the Japanese release of Dark Souls hasn’t gone very smoothly. There have reportedly been some issues with the game’s online functionality, and several gamers are experiencing freezes while connecting.

As you can probably guess, a lot of gamers are pretty annoyed by this. So what have they done to voice their anger? They’ve taken to the Japanese Amazon site and have been leaving negative ratings for Dark Souls.

Developer From Software has addressed the issue, stating that the source of the bug has been identified. The company will be working on a patch to alleviate these online issues. Japanese gamers can expect the patch to release sometime next week.

Here’s hoping Dark Souls has a smooth launch here in North America. We don’t need any pesky bugs giving us a hard time. No, we’d rather leave the source of our frustration and foul language up to the actual in-game content of Dark Souls.

This modification is aiming to be a more lore friendly lightsaber style weapons mod for Skyrim. Eventually it will be focused around using magicka to wield them and a story/quest line to construct them.

All 8 weapons can currently be crafted at a blacksmith forge and tempered at grindstone. Deadric smithing perk is required to craft them. They are located under the Daedric section for now, otherwise they wouldn't be able to be tempered past flawless. Here are the recipies until I can get new craft items quested.

• Craft: Ebony Ingot x1 – Leather Strips x1 – Firewood x1 – Greater Soulgem (Filled) x1
• Temper: Ebony Ingot x1 – Grand SoulGem (Filled) x1
