Worth playing now?
This is on sale on Humble Bundle. How's the PC performance? Also is it worth playing. I enjoy souls-likes and a big fan of Dark Souls and Elden Ring

I just finished it today and yeah it's good now for me.

Performance was good and the game itself was also pretty great besides a few annoying things. The environment is amazing, bosses were ok and builds are fun especially if you use magic.

Is there a lot of replayability?

Yes, the game has 3 endings and you can always swap to a different build.

after 40+ hours, I'd say yes, it's worth playing. despite how frustrating certain parts are, I simply can't put this game down. just don't go in expecting the combat to feel like Elden Ring, it's very different. more different, in fact, than even the original Lords of the Fallen. it feels more clunky and floaty, and the weapon movesets aren't as functional (except for axes), but parrying is much, much better. it's more like in Sekiro/Lies of P, you parry by perfect-blocking, and eventually it breaks enemy posture, which is super satisfying.

really, the real draw of this game is it's world. it's breathtaking visually, and also in terms of the soundscape. music is also great, though quite not on Elden Ring level.

performacne is mid. I'm on Ryzen 5700X with RX 6800, and I can just barely keep the FPS above 60 w/ FSR on Balanced setting at 1440p. on the positive side, there's much less stutter than in Elden Ring, since the game takes its sweet time pre-compiling shaders. be aware that there are issues reported with Intel CPUs, which could be related to the recent mobo overvolting drama.

The performance is much improved for both high end and low end pc's. It's a fun game also. Definitely worth it if you like soulslike games.

edit: Also if you have a Steam Deck it plays a lot better then it did at launch, after they tweaked the low settings to give more fps.

I'M PLAYING ON A VERY AVERAGE COMPUTER AND IT'S GOOD, WORTH BUYING ESPECIAL WHEN ON A SALE THERE'S PLENTY OF FUN.
