Am i the only person who just couldn't get into this game. And it makes no sense because i love open world RPG's. I think it's the lack of direction and clear "hold your hand" systems.
I got into the open world, wondered around aimlessly. Couldn't figure out WTF i was suppose to be doing. Finally found something that looked like i should kill it and then proceeded to get my face kicked in. [Reply]
Yeah, if you're walking around blind it's kind of miserable. However, the open world makes it so you can pretty much have near end game equipment and stats before you even fight your first boss. [Reply]
I gave up on the game after an hour or so. I've never been a fan of the stupid Dark Souls torture timing style of play. This one was no exception. The boss battles require like 30 minutes of perfect ninja dodging against bad guys that are 5 times your size with a weapon reach of 500'. Not for me.... [Reply]
