I beat this game after 120 hours and got to level 150 playing pure strength and enough faith to try some pyro spells. Overall I had a great time with this game and I do think it deserves the recognition its getting and widespread appeal. I was very disappointed with several of the games bosses and overall reuse of content to pad out the game to such an absurd length. I get a sense that most of the second half was rushed or minimally play-tested. In that sense it is the most like another Demon Souls, which also felt half baked is some areas and biting off more than fromsoft could chew at the time. I think things like ash summons and some VERY overpowered weapon arts are an attempt to compensate for a lot of content being unbalanced or unrefined for many builds. From what I can see magic is as overpowered as ever, but I did not play with it much in my play \through. That being said I have no desire at the moment to replay it, which is weird for a fromsoft game, and i owe that to the massive length of the game. I did not even come close to exploring all the little dungeons and side-quests. I could have easily put another 20-30 hours into clearing all the other side-content i ran past and who knows what all else there is to find. There are many samey bosses - you will fight some of them 10 or more times. The unique content and large "legacy" dungeons design is classic stuff and some of the finest in from's library, though.

One of the best exploration games ever made. Truly captures the feeling of mystery and investigation while you survive and build yourself up an epic arsenal of vehicles and tools to dive deep into the caverns below. Very fun and addicting game with gorgeous creatures and flora. Sound design is really top notch, even after many many hours the various environment and creature sounds have me looking around nervously.

Can't say enough good things about it, I hope the developers continue making similar games and find a lot of success at it.

Best septic tank pump truck simulator I've ever played. The driving is tough and fun and I love the mechanic aspects. Most pleasent suprise good game I've experienced in recent memory.
