Just finished it…great game, sticks quite close to DS1 in the basic feel and spirit of the game which is both good and bad. Some things have been more streamlined (ex crafting) which I like. Not as good as the first game…for me it is a 8 out of 10….awesome game!!

I'd rather play fewer games and spend more time with each of them. As far as I'm concerned, 99,995% of the games released suck monkey-balls anyway, so I only go for the great RPG's and don't bother with the rest.

Is this a joke? $3.3 million on a $400,000 planned budget is not enough to finish the game?! Can I have my $15 back, please?

Hope this will be good

This is missing the point: the problem was not the score, but the uninformative structure of the review.

This was a lackluster review, indeed. I have learned next to nothing about gameplay mechanics, controls etc.

Wow...huge disappointment...first off, the introduction (of the Kickstarter video) was way too long, which was probably intended to mask what seems to be a quite sketchy game concept...anyway, I feel I know next-to-nothing about what this game (could) be, nor that I really care to know that much....

SO not getting this...
