Very fun, the difficulty ramps up slower than in some of the previous dark souls template games, but it gets to that maddening level of difficulty eventually. Game is much more newcomer friendly than previous titles as the leveling up system is just that, leveling up, no manual stat point allocation (but there is a class system which allows you to change stat templates for different roles, change on the fly). Don't let the anime look scare you away, while different from works by the studio it works well with the major character customization feature in the game. Want an neon haired afro sporting man running around in spandex and wearing outrageous glasses? You can do that. Want a normal looking person with smart clothes and a clean cut look? Sure. Only thing is there is a real lack of beards (but there are a wide range of gas masks to choose from for face decoration). Still have to laugh at people calling this a dark souls clone, like you know who made the game right? Sorta hard to rip off your own work
