Best video game I've ever played. Better than all the Elder Scrolls and Fallout games combined. For the first time ever, it feels like I am playing a video game for intellectuals, rather than 12 year olds. No childish potty humor, no sexual womanizing, no product placement, no modern music. Just pure, historically inspired events and settings with incredible attention to detail. Are you tired of soaking up sword slashes like some kind of invincible super hero? Lethal difficulty is amazingly fun: your character is killed by a single sword strike.
