Is it worth buying yet for PC or better to wait for patches?
The short and boring answer is that it's almost impossible to tell since performance appears to vary wildly between users. While I'm sure there will eventually be more performance related patches I have no idea how long it will take.

No, did it after. The commander just took it and said he ain't moving. I returned to the woman who gave it to me only to find her dead.

On another note, did you find the ghost in the cage? It says that 'the mongrels are eating him'. Don't know what's that about.

If they hire Durante the performance issues will disappear within a day.

I am swapping between this sword and the Zweihander. Zwei does have more range, especially on horseback, but that weapon scales with strength a ton better even compared to a heavy Zwei.

I’d say regardless of whether you meet the specs it’s almost a coin toss whether the game will work/run well for you. But most problems/crashes/performance issues will seem to happen right away, so you could always get it from a source that is generous with refunds and see if it works on your machine.

Dear mom,

I'm a bit upset today, trying to make some new friends but everybody seem to hate me :(

First found some friends but they shot with a balista, mean. Wanted to speak with their manager but he attacked me with a hammer...
Then I go another way and found some good guys praying! Wanted to join them
but a dragon swooped in and ate them..
So I moved along the road, met with a caravan that got the worst horses ever. Caravan hands were not friendly at all either.
Past that caravan somebody
threw a goddamn giant bear at me!
Thank the ring I'm kinda immortal so back the road.
My only friends are my horse Torrent and a giant flying jellyfish right now :/

Yours sincerely,

I found some library with an NPC who keeps spamming great magic arrow and it does enough damage to almost one-shot me even with 40 vigor. To top it off she's guarded by other enemies who keep shooting at me with their own spells. This feels impossible as a pure melee character, I've died way more times here than on any of the bosses.

Don't do this to me, I'm levelling up a quality build melee char

I just ran past that NPC, the magic arrow is really ridiculous. This shit can even hit you through walls if you stand too close.
On another note, just beat Margit after getting my ass beaten a few times and I was surprised how easy Godrick was after that.

I do like how you can always go out and explore if you get stuck on a "story" level. The open world really has that "what's over the next corner" feel that keeps you going.

I haven't found an anti-magic shield just yet, so I got past that area with fireballs. Throwable pots/knives would also probably work, just takes a bit of time. There's lots of options for throwing weapons this game.
