Key points
- Game speed is tied to frame rate, anything lower than 60 FPS will cause the game to slow down.[1]
- Certain bugs that occur when running Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition at 60 FPS are still in this version, only now they're unfixable because you cannot choose to revert to 30 FPS. See Issues unresolved for more information.

Issues unresolved
Clipping issues with small landscape obstructions

Broken roll and feet animations
- Strange animations when rolling or shifting feet unique to the Remastered version.[6]
Missing ambient sound
- Ambient sound sometimes does not load for example when changing areas.[7]
Reloading fixes temporarily.
Issues fixed
"Fatal error: The system does not meet the minimum memory requirement to run the application"
Install ≥6GB RAM or install DSR.rar fix[8][9] |
