I support the PC game and their technique for trying to boost sales of the PC version, but we should not be forced to wait such an extended period of time so that the console fanbase is more likely inclined to purchase the game again just for the new DLC.

ENB should support this. Not saying he will, but he should. I say this because he and I got into a very small chat (Two posts) about how he thought it was wrong that they were blatantly trying to get our money, and I thought a month or two wasn't too terrible.
Mind you, I have nothing to back that up other than that little conversation.

Already signed!
Personally, I'm willing to wait until October 25th. I mean, folks in Japan (PC and PS3 alike) have to wait until then to get the new contents anyway, so it's only fair. However, making me wait any longer than that is simply uncool.
As if it wasn't bad enough the Sega delayed Anarchy Reigns' release date until March 31, 2013 when the game is already released on July 5 with both English and Japanese voices and texts. And now Namco Bandai has to pull this stunt...

I've already spoiled so much, but even beyond that I'm worried that the community will suffer from this wait. A lot of AAA games will be coming out then, and i doubt non die hard fans will remain. I think even an Oct25th release is pretty bad, but thats much better then a Dec release. Should we send Namco Bandai a petition/letter of disapproval? I for one am really upset that they decided to do something this greedy. Despite being a big fan of the games they publish, i will not be supporting them. From now on, unless they listen to us, i will be buying the games they publish used. I feel this is necessary, i want to support the developers but they need to be aware of how the publishers are dealing with customers. I for one will not support publishers that do things like this, and i suggest you should not either. All we can do is show our disapproval, and maybe they will listen.
I know a lot of the people who already bought the PC edition are going to act like this is not a big deal, and whatever that's cool have your own opinion. I highly doubt any of you would feel the same if you had to wait 4 months to play the content. I know they aren't going to release DLC tomorrow or anything, so the damage is done. Still we need to let our voices be heard, cause i will not stand for this greediness.
Well, heres the start of the petition. PLEASE SIGN! http://www.change.org/petitions/namco-bandai-games-bring-dark-souls-dlc-to-consoles-oct-25th-or-earlier-2
Good post/petition and ofcourse signed.
But I already knew Scamco would do something like this. Not surprised at all.

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
The only thing about this dlc I want to know is info about all Artorias related gear because I want to plan out my cosplay of him ahead of time. I don't want any story, boss, etc spoilers though. Which is getting harder and harder to avoid.... perhaps a sabbatical from the forums is in order...

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
How do you know that its not because the DLC isn't finished and they decided to release the PC first because that helps sales (rather than do the opposite)? Is there a link or proof of some kind that the DLC is being withheld from us? If there is, I shall sign it, if its already been posted, sorry I missed it.

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
That's what I already suggested, that they focused on the PC side first to make sure they got it down tight and didn't mess up on their launch onto a new platform. I was just saying I sort of wish they delayed the PC release so the community would be whole rater than split.

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
I think the general consensus is that the PC version is a direct port of a console version, and therefore the console versions are actually finished.
Peeve let me post it in his twitch Bunch of new sigs

Nice guys, 100 sigs in a matter of a day and a half of just bringing it up in forums is a pretty good start.

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
@ICEFANG: i was thinking the same thing, or more so that is what their excuse would be. We know that the content will be ready for consoles by Oct 25th though, so asking for it by then seems fair. Theres no way it takes 2 months after the Japan release to get it on psn/xbl in the rest of the world. Plus like tolvo said, the pc version is a port. A port of the 360 version it seems like, which is a port of the ps3 version. I'm pretty certain everything is already done, and could be out right now. I understand they wanted to sell some copys, and thats why i don't mind waiting a month or two. Four months however is stretching it too far.
I don't know what they will do, cause if they change it to Oct25th release then the people who got the PC version and already owned the console version kind of get the shaft. You are someone who got the pc version, i think, would you feel ripped off by that? I would think you were probably prepared to buy both in the first place, like other console/pc players. Thats why i hope that everyone supports this, not just the people waiting. Whats the harm in the consoles getting to join in on the fun a couple months sooner, right?

I signed as well. As much as I love the game, I will not be buying it again. I don't even think I can play Dark Souls on my computer.

Re: Namco Bandai Petition \0/
125 signed! Thanks guys, cause i know we didn't get even close to that many just from what ive been doing. I really want remain optimistic, but unless the numbers jump dramatically in the next two weeks i don't see this working. No matter what happens i will send it to Namco Bandai, if we get ignored i highly suggest that you buy all Namco Bandai games used from now on. You got to speak with your wallet, unless you want all publishers to turn into EA. That's what some people don't seem to get, i have seriously been called an "entitled elitist" almost ten or more times. Its like they had that insult prepared for something else, cause i don't even understand how that makes any sense.....

haha +1.
The thing about it that bothers me the most is that i think From is feeling the same way..."why are you doing this to our fans?" Im pretty sure one of them said something along the lines of "I feel sorry for console gamers" a month or two ago...
