I haven't seen any mention of this game on here. Anyone playing it? It has great reviews and seems to be a souls like game, but with guns. Looks like a lot of fun, especially co-op with 2 other people.

It's pretty great. Dark Souls with guns is very accurate. There are TONS of secrets to find, and several awesome hidden classes that you can swap between once you unlock them. I've been playing as Gunslinger so far, and he's really really good.

That said, I almost rage quit the game early on lol, as you're pretty underpowered at first and checked out a side area early on that has some glitched enemy spawning on my campaign roll.

Everything is procedurally generated and your campaign can start in any world, so it's possible that others won't run into the same issue. In the Council Chambers area of Losmon, I had instances of enemy packs spawning behind me with a particularly annoying elite, and also duplicate spawns of the same enemy wave, which created a pretty crazy difficulty spike.

Once I got past that area, however, I haven't run into any similar issues and have been really enjoying the game as my character gets stronger. Can definitely recommend.

I've been keeping my eye on this one because the 1st one always intrigued me, I just never picked it up. Did you play the first one and is it a requirement to get into this one?

I will probably end up getting it. I have little doubt I will enjoy it, but I was trying to hold off since I am playing Diablo 4 and have pre-ordered Starfield.

Any good?

I never played the first one, and don't feel like playing it is necessary. NPCs explain enough of the backstory, but I do feel like the game would have benefited from having a really good opening cinematic to recap the story, as it does feel like I'm missing part of the story sometimes.

Doesn't take away from the amazing game play though.

I bought it and installed it last night. Only had time to play through the tutorial, but seems good so far. I think I am going to choose the hunter class and see how that feels.

Really enjoying the game so far. I'm anxious to see the next world I get. My current one feels like I'm playing in the upside down world on stranger things.

Started playing this with friends now that it is on gamepass. A lot of fun and tons of build variety.

Started in "hard" mode to simulate more of a dark souls difficulty and it was really tough at first from scratch. At the point now that the game is actually super easy except for the main bosses.

Even easier with a full party. My friends are not souls players but we have no problem clearing bosses together.

Final thoughts are that while there are similarities to dark souls, the actual combat is not as punishing but being able to easily play with friends (I never got why multiplayer on souls games are weird) makes for a great time.

Up the difficulty.
