Been waiting on this title, I'm a big fan of dark souls. So it's a day one cop for me regardless , been trying not to watch/read up much on it. There's also dark souls 2 next gen remake dropping 2 weeks after with alt ending/dialogue n more
The starting zone is tough for beginners of from software games, just run past tougher groups of enemies their aggro zone is only so big they'll eventually go back. You don't get another lamp until you beat one of the bosses tho.
