So when was the last time a game really blew you away?

Ferrystones and Portcrystals.

 

The game could have used a "click & go" teleportation system indeed. But honestly, I didn't mind the backtracking to a certain extent.

 

EDIT: And I played the vanilla game, meaning I only had one single Portcrystal throughout a whole walktrhough.

I've never beaten the game even if I'm somewhat making it sound as if I did.  I actually got to after the point where you get the port crystal when you kill the one gryphon. 

I'm just hoping they create a next gen version of this, remove leveling, and balance it better, because the boss monsters and unique areas were amazing.  It's somewhat like Shadow of the Colossus meets Demon's Souls meets Monster Hunter, but then with some really poor back tracking and fighting the same random enemies hundreds of times.  Oh, and stupid parts giving you no idea what to do and how to complete them until dumb luck after walking past it a 20th time has your pawn saying that maybe you can use a dead goblin to lure out the gryphon.

MASTER, A TREE!

 

 

Oh, you should really beat the game. The ending is amazing, at least for me. And yes, I had the same impression: SOtC + Dark Souls.
