Almost has mmo vibes. You need others to progress. Sadly the multiplayer is hit or miss.That being said I love the challenge and it does have a darksouls open world feel to it. Edit. I also haven't gotten much new equipment. Been using the same stuff I used 5 hours ago. Maybe I'm missing something (which I hopefully am) but I struggle to progress other than just grinding. Some of the bosses and enemies are just unrelenting which pushes me towards the need for an ally. Which means the struggling multiplayer aspect of the game is holding it down. I feel this game needs a bit more of a progression line
