| I had time to play it for 10 minutes. You walk 3 feet and it looks like there's a boss fight. I did not engage the boss.
So far: It is pretty, the aggressive use of gray notwithstanding, but I've always liked the dreamy storybook quality these games have had. The tutorial aka the first 3 feet is short and abrupt, so it's probably a steep learning curve for new players. There's messages on the ground that tell you the controls, you have to fight enemies pretty much immediately, there's a bonfire, the aforementioned boss, and a bigass enemy right at the start that you're not equipped to deal with that they explicitly tell you not to fight but don't prevent you from engaging. I wish more games trusted people to not get frustrated and give up so easily, and had as thoughtful a combat system. I rolled a warrior, so I don't have a bow or magic. I'd be interested to hear if ranged attacks are still a big advantage over melee (which I think is way more fun). |

Dark Souls 3 by 04/12/2016, 9:50am PDT  Not sure if I can go back to these after Bloodborne. NT by 04/12/2016, 10:44pm PDT What made Bloodborne better? Never played it by 04/13/2016, 6:11am PDT Devil May Cry school of encouraging constant offensive play by 04/13/2016, 6:26am PDT Press X to win = better than difficult boss puzzle-solving scenarios? NT by 04/13/2016, 7:14am PDT Bloodborne is basically Tower of Latria: The Game.

Everyone that likes these games should own it by 04/30/2016, 12:04pm PDT |
