47 hours in game.
Story 6/10
Graphics (when not bugging out) 8/10, when bugging out ( FPS drops, stutters, graphical issues) 3/10 ( RTX 3080 BTW)
overall game is good, story is decent but once you hit around level 30 and if you unlock the dark arts spells your broken, every fight is a cake walk.
Combat is repetitive but satisfying.
Overall the biggest issue with this game is that one of the best quests, potions and features is locked to playstation exclusive for a year! A YEAR!!! you can finish the main story in under 20 hours gameplay!
The pc version suffers horrifically from FPS drops, stutters and low FPs, especially in hogsmeade.

Wait for a sale!

Story and solo gameplay 6/10
online play / fight pits fortress 0/10, ♥♥♥♥♥♥ AI, makes no sense, ur level 50 orc loses to a level 10 orc because thee ai repeats the same moveset till he dies, unpolished unfinished in this area, overall ruins the game experience for me.

Likely wont finish the game as the Fight pit aspect is so big in the game and its just hot garbage, overall developer should be ashamed of themselves.

Buy this if its on sale for 5e or less otherwise hard pass

really boring game, no game development, very punishing for death if your exploring, overall 3/10. This is a try hard game, you have to play slow and take your time (boring AF). Game develops slowly with little progression and no guidance. imagine dark souls but animated.... wouldn't waste my time unless your looking for a game to waste hours on with no story replaying the same section over and over. wondering if your missing an item or if your just bad, usually its because there feels like delay in controls, especially around attacking. Not really that fun to play. other reviews say game gets better as you play on, but i cant keep playing the same section of a game over and over getting back to my dead body to die again and lose everything. Comparable to Grinding in wow but no reward

Denuvo anti cheat kernel based????

hell no, 34 hours in this game, loved it, bought the dlc upfront and all.

EDIT*
Denuvo no longer required for single player.

great game game, good animations, fats pace shooter, music is awesome. game does get very easy once u get around to the last quarter of the game.

gameplay wise it seems great.

Issues? this game has more bugs than a riddled corpse.

FPS issues, Alt F4 salty players, horrific host advantage issues ( hunter is always host), no way to join as a group or dou queue, no way to talk in game or type for assistance, Join a lobby system fails abotu 6 times every time you try to join a lobby.
