My wife and I are planning to play DOS and I would like to know which version is preferred. We can play on two separate PCs or on a single PS4. We usually play something on the PS4 an hour or two each night, so when DOS came up recently, I suggested we might get it on Steam, but I'm not sure if we will enjoy it as much if we have to sit at a PC to play.

I guess I just want to know if the PC is preferrable for any major reasons or if perhaps the PS4 experience is so good that it is actually preferred.

Thanks!

The PC version is superior.

Why? Because you get the best of BOTH worlds. Want to use a controller and play like you would on the PS4, you can. Want to use a Keyboard and Mouse instead, you can. Want to install a mod or two, you can.

With the PS4 Version you are stuck with a controller and you have no mod support.

Graphics are the Same
Audio is the Same
etc etc..

PC is the way to go.

Seems like a nobrainer to me too. If your PCs are powerful enough, definitely play on PC. Console versions have no modding support at all. Also, even though I am using a controller, I turn off the game's default controller support and use Xpadder to map my keys, because the default controller UI is horrid compared to the keyboard and mouse UI.

I have never played the PC version of DOS and can't really weigh in on which is the "Best" but I will confirm that the PS4 version is incredibly fun to play. I picked it up last week and my wife and I have really enjoyed ourselves thus far. This is the closest thing to actual tabletop D&D I have ever encountered and the ability to play from the comfort of our living room is a definite plus. I personally think you can't go wrong just as long as you play this game.
