I want my money back.

-Good : graphics, music, first hour of the story, setting.
-Bad : rest of the story, characters, general gameplay, setting has no bearing on the story unlike Rapture/Bioshock 1&2.
-Worse : enemy AI, way too linear, no replay value, only a few types of enemies, no challenge whatsoever, not a single puzzle.

huh. technical details aside, that is pretty much the exact opposite of everything I have heard about the game

• Liked :
  • setting, including the tidbits you get from eavesdropping on NPCs or reading notes/books
  • finally some non-lethal gadgets
  • level design (probably the best in the entire game)
• Disliked :
  • uninteresting story and characters
  • mission modifiers (only two real modifiers/bribes that make the first mission slightly easier, the rest of them just give you more loot)

Dark Souls

Made of win and awesome.

There are a lot of opinions about the difficulty level going around. For me it felt like the character's strength and game progress depends on the character's level just as much as the player's skill and world knowledge. I played my first character for some 8 hours, felt like I screwed up my skills, started with a new one and it took me about 45 minutes to get to the same point (and almost level) I was at with the old character. Which is awesome, because there is a LOT to discover in this world, and the characters you play are just different angles to look at it.

I'm not even tired of the battle mechanics yet, even though I was using the same single weapon for the entire game (save for some 10 minutes at the beginning)

9.5/10

wait til you reach the Catacombs
