Beautiful game world with a unique art style. Was worried the game would be 'too difficult' given its Souls heritage, but while I've found parts of it frustrating, it has been worlds more enjoyable for me than any of the Dark Souls games ever were. This is a game where you can stop on a hilltop, look out in the distance, spot something cool and think, "I want to go see what's over there!" and do just that. If you love exploration without artificial boundaries and 'main quests' trying to shove themselves in your face, then this might be a game for you. I have 30 hours in and still haven't so much as bothered with the first 'main story boss' and yet have found plenty to do to keep my interest, many ways to build up my character and improve, and several optional bosses that were within my means to beat.
