The start was slow - but the more time I spent with the game the more I enjoyed it. It's a simple, zelda-like affair, with a minor touch of mandatory Dark Souls influence but it's well done. Enjoyed exploration quite a bit. The only disappointment was end game - after main story there is "true ending" you can pursue. But outside two new combat encounters it is just running around empty maps 100% find-them-all chores. Payoff wasn't even remotly worth it. I've had that installed for like...6 months, but I haven't even booted it up once. I'll get around to it...someday...maybe. No guarantees. I haven't been in a "gameplay" mood for a while now, so a number of games that I installed and intended to play a long while back never even got tried.
