I dunno, the GWJ guys made this game sound like work (i.e. very hard and unforgiving). Is the effort worth the payoff?

I suppose if you would prefer your games to be more like God of War where you can mash through the combat and you know for a fact that eventually you will win....then no...this game is definitely not ever going to be worth it to you. If there is such thing as a thinking man's action game, Dark Souls is it. (as is it's predecessor) As soon as you start trying to go all Kratos on this game...and nearly everybody does....you die, and the death penalty is stiff.

I don't mean that to be nearly as condescending as it probably reads. I like a good button mashing action game as much as the next gamer. This game just isn't one of those, and if requiring actual planning and thought before jumping into action doesn't sound fun...then this game will be a lesson in frustration for you. Particularly when you realize that a good many times you will simply have to get your ass kicked to learn how not to get your ass kicked.
