http://www.kotaku.com.au/2012/12/dark-souls-ii-runs-on-a-brand-new-engine/
theres are links in these articles to famitsu and 4gamer articles that are the sources for these articles.
if these have already been posted, i apologize and would request a mod to delete this thread.
I hope everyone had a swell Xmas!

Great news. It's still gonna be hard so all those pessimists can calm down.



Now I am interested in new engine, I hope they keep the ragdoll stuff on the enemies when you touch them they bounce and stuff it's pretty hilarious to watch.
