A very stand-offish game with requirements that not many people like. I decided to rent it from Gamefly just recently, (planning to buy soon), the game seems very unforgiving and long. This game itself expects you to basically learn on your own. Upon starting up the main adventure, your character is extremely weak and inexperienced. After 4-5 hours of learning how the game works, and cautiously using the stamina bar, the game's difficulty lifts up a bit. This game has an Online log filled with players who are either playing at the moment, or that have died recently. (I think) It's a never ending dungeon crawler, with blood spots around the dungeons, blood spots from other particular players, where you can summon a ghost of their player, and the game will replay how and where they died. It's very useful for people who don't use guides, while I myself tend to use guides because Demon's Souls method of dying is not so instantaneously recoverable. Your health cuts in half temporarily, and you lose all of your experience points, (Souls), so you'll have to go all the way back to where you died, and touch your bloodspot, to get all of your souls back. Instead of selling all of the items you collect over the course of time, you are only able to deposit them into the Stockpile "guy", you’re able to increase stats so that you can carry more weight while moving. I'm really enjoying this title, and I just defeated my third boss. Being able to walk through the first dungeon, and get one hit kills, lets you know that you've gotten stronger. I'll be back later.
