So this game is like Dark Souls. There, I said it. Now that's out if the way...

It has a fairly interesting story that's tough to summarise, but the combat is solid and as much as the game takes to crack before you really enjoy it, it's worth it. I'm really enjoying it and there's a lot of variation too!

The style is awesome and graphics are lovely on the xbone. So many p's.

If you like that sorta thing, get it. You might nt prefer it to Dark Souls but it has a lot of originality and a hell of a lot of spirit.

Aside from the complete lack of a story in a game that should be absolutely dripping with it, although if you actually want the lore you have to collect everything in-game and then read it's description.

I loved playing it as a game, but as someone who likes something other than "slash, roll, slash, roll" and is a little partial to some FUCKING STORY, then yeah, Dark Souls sucked copious amount of donkey wang.

Well this game is the tits. Made a video of a boss battle, took me the least time of any boss to beat. It's got a fair decent cinematic story.

Uploading the video now but my net is shit.

To be fair, I noticed there was some guy on the PS4 "What's On" section playing this, so I gave it a watch, and it looks alright actually. It seems to actually contain a story in it, so yeah, interest peaked. Might wait for a price drop though.

Aye it's got a fair bit of story that's decent. And the characters are cool as well, especially when you meet the Blacksmith!

The game's combat plays like I played of Dark Souls, though it's probably got a bit more in terms of combat. Just a bit more variety. And they've taken some serious time to give you distinct armours and classes and spells n shit.

Also big bosses like DS too.

I've just beaten the fourth boss, and had a look to discover that I'm not even a quarter the way through the story chapters, yet I've spend 19 hours on it.

Fucking good game.
