what's the point of this game, am i missing it?

[Rabbit Doge]

This seems like a monster hunter game ment to played with friends but done up like a dark souls style. Should I just wandering around this game to play or is there some progression or anything I am missing. I really don't know how I feel about this game, and it seems really diverse in choice and I don't want to waste my time, if this is suppose to be like Dead Island where it's a team/co-op game that I'll be ginding to play solo... I mean I picked skill and magic weapons in the start and don't even know or care about the leveling and all the menus to go through, even the first soul core i got, it doesn't make sense to me what the hell this is.

Is there like a game manual or something, or should I just keep going. I dunno if there's spoilers or not...???

Spoilers?

Is it an exploration game or is it a trophy hunting game? It's cute either way, and a lot more rich and complex then i was possibly expecting, never played the first one ... I think.

Think Dark Souls meets Diablo, but with deeper combat.

[BIG E.]

This game is a souls-like with very in depth heck n slash dynamic combat.

It also has a gearing system thats similar to isometric aRPGs.

You can re-access to tutorials through game menu if you missed them while playing.

Missing it.

Definitely not a monster hunter-style game, but can be more entertaining with friends.

You selected a mission on the map / a stage.

Complete the objective, often noted by a white light on your compass to give you the general direction you could be heading. And if you can't get there directly, find a path to get there.

Character motivation is on the weaker side for the first half. Story pacing is one of the game's weaker areas.

As you become comfortable with combat system, explore the skill tree, and such. As a rough example of gameplay once comfortable with the combat mechanics, but intentionally building to let the boss suffer longer:

Sir, this is a video game.

The gameplay loop is extremely similar to Dark Souls. Like Dark Souls, there are multiplayer options, but the game is designed to be beaten solo. The game has a series of missions where you have to get from the start to the end and defeat a boss. That's about it.

The levels are really big and intricate, but you don't have to fully explore them. Think of it more like the game is giving you a choice of routes. You might get some extra loot or open up a shortcut, but it's not like Dark Souls where you need to explore every nook and cranny or risk missing items, characters, entire areas, etc.

Finally, the biggest difference in my opinion: While From Software makes hard games, they also tend to be elegantly simple. Team Ninja are more about giving you a ton of depth and complex mechanics to master, so you kind of have to embrace that complexity.

That's like taking all the liquids in your house in one cup and saying "this is a drink"

too much depth, also the game seems to be console centric, so that kind of say something too for the demographics. Thanks anyways.

Not dungeons, but missions, and floors of the underworld, but yes.

You’re running through levels to get to the hardest difficulty, then farming rare loot and sets.

[Angel]

it's a game where you and your best buddy collect spirit stones, you're the muscle he's the brains, you kill the bad stuff (with the very good combat system) and he sorts out the deals

[Alpo]

More like pokemon. You collect materials to summon another player. Then he kills everything. While progressing in the game, you collect armors, and you can customize your look to make the perfect waifu.
