Me personally, I can't go back to the ps3. And, I haven't bought a next gen system yet and don't intend to until Destiny comes out. I just can't bare the 720p resolution. That's right, this game will not be in 1080p on the xbox or ps3. And, granted dark souls looked pretty good on ps3, but when compared to pc graphics, I sometimes make a sick face. The game will be ported to the ps4 but the graphics won't be any better, just upscaled. And, because it will be a port, it will probably have alot of latency issues. There will also be no mods to save it this time either.
The reason I say port is because sony just announced their idea to solve the issue of the ps4 not being able to play ps3 games. But really, it's to help aleve the major problem that even newer, huge titles like dark souls ii and gta 5 aren't being developed for the ps4. That idea is playstation now. It allows you to "stream" certain ps3 games from their cloud. I'm guessing dark souls ii will be in that mix. You just know that's going to be a lag filled disaster for a game like dark souls. It just sounds like a bummer to me. I'm going pc for dark souls ii and I would rather go ps4 all the way if they develoved it for the ps4. But they didn't, and that's that. It's a pretty big bungle by sony and microsoft in my opinion. This game is coming out months after the the next gen consoles' release, and microsoft and sony should have done a better job at ensuring developers were making hit titles for those new consoles.
The good news (for me at least) is that dark souls ii has been developed side by side for the pc this time around. No port. So it should be really good for the pc. It's still alittle sad. It's mostly just disappointing that there won't be any attractive games coming out for the ps4 (again, for me) for as far as the eye can see. I'd love to buy the ps4. But Destiny seems to be my only motivation and that won't be until september 2014.
