Unforgiving, slight difficulty, awesome weapons and powers, Fantastic.
The game is unforgiving not difficult when you die you have one chance to recapture the souls from your bloodstain if you ask me it was gracious of them to even give you a chance to recover them. Know to make it challenging to get them back when you die your hp is reduced rangeing from 40%-60% in what is called "soul form". But if you are carrying over 100k in souls around before you fight the boss you are taking the chance with farming you can easily just complete the level get your level ups and come back.
The story is good and fun to dig up the dirty details by talking to the people dotting the nexus and worlds or perhaps reading an ancient inscription on a weapon or armor.
Know for the multiplayer. Let me start off by telling you this there is no greater feeling then killing a jumper which is a person who waits for you to invade them and then their right behind the spawn ready to back stab you. So as i just said yes their is an invasion system where you enter another players world and attempt to kill them to reclaim your body. But their is an alternative become a helpful phantom istead of a hurtful help another play clear his level and you can regain your body that way. The multiplayer is innovative and new and is a welcome change to just slaughtering people as an army soldier.
