That game slipped right under the radar. Is there anyone here that played it that can speak about it? Is it good? Is it shit?

I remember watching some gameplays of it, and it looked good to me, a souls clone, looked fun.
But apparently it was full of bugs. Some major bugs.


Yea I saw some gameplay too and it looked pretty good.



My friend says it's like combining Zelda with Dark Souls, and it's not as punishing as the latter. He also said it can feel formulaic, but other than that it is a solid game and he did not regret the 60 he paid to play it. That and the walkthroughs I saw make it a winner in my book, and I'll likely get it when I have time to play it.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

At the end of the day why don't you just get a Souls game.  That's clearly what anyone who buys this game wants.



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

It's certainly a bit rough around the edges. But I had fun with it. It is very unabashedly a Souls clone. Tho a few points of differentiation mainly being shorter and easier than the Souls games, tho being shorter is not necessarily a problem as I managed to finish Lords before getting board where as I never got round to finishing the Souls games despite putting ~30h into each. I actually like some of the changes they made to the EXP/Souls system where when you die eventually the counts starts ticking down if you take too long to collect them, and you get an EXP multiplier as you kill enemies that resets if you die or visit a checkpoint. On the downside there is less enemy veriaty and the boss encounters aren't as well designed as the Souls bosses. At least on PC they have patched most of the major bugs, I hear the console versions are pretty rough in terms of performance tho.

I did. It's great and has that DS vibe. Sadly it has bugs that sometimes make you lose progress. So i would get it on the cheap.



Hmm, might pick it when its cheaper.



its still on my radar despite metacritic



Nope, but I'll probably play it down the road.

The bugs sounds like a pain. Hopefully they'll do some patching.

If you are expecting the game to be as rewarding and deep as Souls then you would be disappointed.

It is an average game, with good and somewhat challenging bosses fight. The gameplay is fun.  The story and characters basically don't exist, really uninspiring. I'd recommend waiting until it gets cheaper, It really has low value and short campaign for an RPG.
