I finally broke down and bought this. 10hrs of gameplay later and I feel like I’ve done nothing. It feels like a BB and DS mix with the flask recharges. The horse and open world reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus. The crafting items are Skyrim-like. Combat feels faster paced than some DS games with more groups.
I picked Samurai but will make a quality build to try weapons. Battle axe range feels short. It’s tough to put away the Uchi and Flail.
