During the behind-closed-doors presentation of Dark Souls at Namco-Bandai's private booth at Gamescom, things ended on a rather random note. After seeing a fairly extensive play-through of a portion of the game, a representative from Namco informed us that there was some confusion during a previous demo of Dark Souls concerning DLC, and that he wanted to clear the air.

According to him, Dark Souls is set to be a stand-alone, static package once it's released in early October of this year. This means that Namco and Dark Souls' developer From Software have no plans to release DLC of any kind.

This isn't necessarily that big of a deal, considering Dark Souls will take around 50-60 hours to complete, and that you'll be traversing about three times more territory than you did in Demon's Souls. There's even double the spells, items, weapons, armor and other equipment available when compared to Demon's Souls.

Will Namco's and From Software's decision not to pursue DLC with Dark Souls affect your purchasing decision this fall? Sound-off in the comments below.
