Can't believe they force you to make an account to play this game, which according to some people, it's the worst thing to do to a human being.

I like some parts of the game well enough, but what a chore. Like finding a $5 bill covered in sh-t.

I started playing this on the Vita and I gotta say, this version is like 10x better, simply because loading times aren't a thing and the map is improved. I'd hate to play this on the 3DS.

It's good

Nice experience. Graphics are cool, puzzle was entertaining, lore is bit cryptic, and I 100% it in less than 20 minutes, so it is in fact short. Definitely would like to see more from the developer.

At times a bit clunky, could use a bit more polish. Still, it's a cool story and the puzzles are interesting. If you like point and click AND horror, this is pretty good.

The game is pretty good. Only a few hours in, but so far, I don't see why everyone raves about this one and talks bad about DS3. I know, heresy.

Maybe it gets really good later on? Either way, like I said, the game is good.

edit:
So now I've put more time into this game. Holy crap I hate it so much. The amount of BS deaths and just straight nonsense you have to go through is infuriating. Some boss fights are stupid easy, some are absurd (Bed of Chaos, looking at ♥♥♥♥♥♥ you). Crystal cave? FFS. I'm near Lord Gwyn/DLC and I just had to take a break. Since then I've put in more hours into DS2, DS3, and Bloodborne and have had a blast.

edit2: So... Here I am, having beat the game and midway through a second playthrough. Holy crap did this game grow on me. I'm still of the mind that DS3 is superior, but I like this game, not gonna lie.

I played DS3 first and had read a lot of bad reviews about DS2 so I went in with an open mind. It's... different than DS3 for sure, but it's a good game nonetheless. The graphics are naturally not as good, and the look and feel overall feels less refined, but it's still a solid RPG.

Another thing I've noticed so far is that the story seems to be completely unrelated to DS3 (which seems to follow in the footsteps of what was going on in DS1). If this is a matter of me still being in the early hours of the game or me just flat out not understanding the lore is still to be determined.

All in all, if you like Dark Souls, give this one a shot.

Fun, creepy little stealth game.

I don't get it

Game is hard, tense, and at times frustrating (alright, most of the time), but there's a method to the madness. Don't go in with a hack and slash mentality and you'll get a feel for the rhythm of the combat.

If you wanna play a game to relax, don't play this. If you wanna butt your head on a wall, this is the game for you!
