    It's not the same developer is it? I thought this was a different studio?

    Team Ninja who make Nioh, Nioh 2, Wolong. Their last three games are copies of FromSoftware games/souls type games. They are meant to be really good games but I didn't like them (although I love souls games)

    Didn't know that now I must admit. But from the gameplay I can't see it being souls like.

    Never played a souls type game, but it does look good, but I will wait for the reviews to come out, last 2 games I pre-ordered were Saints Row and AC Mirage, both of them were disappointing

    Watched this. It doesn't look like a soulslike game. Looks like it will be good.

    Doesn't look that great to me unfortunately. Graphics look a bit old to me (not that it matters that much) and seems just ....no quite good enough watching the videos on it. Looks like a love it or hate it type of game.

    I actually enjoyed it, can take some time to get into but the story is top notch, obviously it's not historically accurate

    First thoughts, not long started.

    But, don't really like it.

    Don't know what souls and stuff is, but I played that Sifu and that's what it feels like with better graphics, although I'm not as impressed with graphics as I thought.

    Will try for a tad longer, usually end up trying to complete games but not enjoying the gameplay.

    There is a free demo of this on the playstation store for anyone wanting to try it out.

    Didn't really like it. Stopped playing after about 3 hours. Disappointed.

    Good few hours into, but it's grown a little on me, like the amount of characters you can associate with.
