There is the 347.25 driver that is for 860M http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/81392/en-us
This is the page for ASUS users: http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/G771JM/HelpDesk_Download/ (VGA Section) Which is the version .337.

Can you play other games, what I mean, is the problem specific with the DAI? Also did you try running the game with the Intel integrated graphics, you wouldn't be able to play it but you should be able to boot ,it, so we can say the problem is only related to the nvidia driver or some other sheningan is at play.

I can play other games, it's just for DAI I need a properly updated version of my graphics card. I'll try the Intel Graphics card suggestion and get back to you, it sounds like a good idea.
EDIT: It did not work. Even running it on my Intel Graphics card, it forces itself to run the secondary one (NVIDIA) probably because it just won't launch with a graphics card that weak. So the issue is still the same.
Here is a brief discussion on ASUS drivers vs Nvidia drivers:
I know when I first booted up DAI on my PC I also got the error code about updating my Nvidia drivers, and I am on Win7, so it is not just 8.1. Unfortunately, DAI has some software check on startup and it won't let you play unless you are on a minimum drivers version. First time I've seen that, but there it is.
So if you want to play DAI on that lap top, you are going to have to try the Nvidia drivers. From the few discussions I could find on the web, it seems either the Nvidia drivers won't even install, or tend to run fine. in that thread above someone who worked for ASUS mentioned stability issues though with other drivers than Nvidia. But it is either potential issues (unlikely) or no game, so it is up to you.
You can try the intel integrated graphics, but generally a built in card will barely be able to play a game like this on minimum, if at all. But worth a try if you don't want to use the Nvidia drivers.

I can't install any NVIDIA drivers. Up to this point I have been under the impression that this error code was because all ASUS users can't install NVIDIA drivers unless it's directly off of their driver page. Error: http://puu.sh/f4zyR/d94343ccb5.jpg. This error occurs on every driver update after my current version (.337)
That error code means that your video card is modified significantly enough by ASUS that the Nvidia base drivers do not recognize it, and therefore will not install. So only the ASUS drivers will suffice. Since they are not updating their dirviers, you will not be able to play DAI using that video card.
So you will have to switch to using the Integrated Intel card as your primary video card for DAI, but as I said it is probably going to only play at minimum graphic settings, if at all. You may be able to upgrade the ASUS/Nvidia card if you are willing to spend the money, but I wouldn't know how as I've never owned or tried to upgrade a notebook. If it is not a spearate component, then that may be out of the question. If you are not sure, you can post a question on the Tom's Hardware forums and you may get a helpful response.
But if the Intel card is no good and you can't upgrade the notebook for money or technical reasons, then you will not be able to play DAI until you are able to purchase some new hardware or ASUS feels like putting out some new drivers. Sorry.
