I am playing it now- got it for $37 at GMG = steam download deluxe. It is pretty good - if you can play it. Crashed on me at first. MY PC= i5 2500K, 8 GB RAM, 290 GPU - I had to do a fix which is found in Steam = go into the Steam common file and manually find and activate the directX.exe, also had to update my catalyst driver to 14.9.

It does look very good, I am not used to this type of game so it is a challenge for me. Bosses destroy me = frustrating. You get used to a certain style of killing enemies based on what you have leveled up, and what you good at , but then you come across a Boss and that style fails badly - and you die, die ,die. LOL

IF you check out the discussions on Steam there are a number of people really mad because they bought the game and it just crashes all the time, some cant even get past the initial character set up.

I did not see these discussion before I bought it - as I jumped on the sale at GMG - I don't think I would have bought it if I had known about the issues.

well..but leaving the crashing behind, im not that interested in that because 1) it might get fixed in a patch 2) being the requirements are high i was thinking about getting it for ps4...

im more interested in what the game has to offer actually.

Gameplay is good, Visuals are really good. Sometimes the jumping or getting around or over stuff is difficult. Had a crash last night while playing. Some of the voice acting is not great. This is not the type of game I usually play -so my opinions are of limited use.

The beginning is demanding and was difficult for me. Once you figure out the patterns of enemies the AI - is not super intelligent. Just beat the 3rd boss on my first try without dying and I stink at this type of game. I don't think there are any settings for difficulty.

Is this game any good? Being a large Souls series fan, this game just looks rather bland. Everything I've seen makes me think they were making a Darksiders game and someone said "You know what people like? Dark Souls!" and based entirely on what they saw on a youtube video, they incorporated "dark souls" into it.
