Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Games for Windows Live migration to Steam delayed

We were Prepared to Die this month, you know, when Dark Souls finally got migrated from Games for Windows Live to Steam (all hail the PC overlord), but that doesn't seem to be happening.

In the middle of October (the 20th to be exact) we caught wind of the migration from Windows Live to Steam through an announcement on Steam. The target window for migration was at some point this month, this year.

While the migration hasn't been moved to next year, it has been moved to next month. The original Steam announcement has been updated and not in a way that makes us more excited:

We are working hard to finalize the process to move your Dark Souls: Prepare to Die saves and achievements to Steam. We need to conduct additional testing and we are now targeting December to begin this process. We'll have more information in the coming weeks. Thank you very much for your patience!

Sure, it's not the best news – but imagine this – you migrate your game from Games for Windows Live to Steam, it says the migration is complete, you start up the game…no saved game. Do you want that? Is that something you really want to happen? No, no it is not. Therefore, we must wait in patience – in understanding!

Prepare to Die next month (or so)!
