This game scratched a very specific itch that previously had never gotten any attention. While not perfect, I look forward to this game only become more impressive with time and DLC. Must play.

Hearing the First Bell ring every 15-30 seconds was extremely cathartic, and unlike playing a modded version of DS1, the updated graphics and framerate really make this enjoyable to reply a Xth time.

The game is far and above one of the most gorgeous and immersive titled I've ever had the pleasure of playing, having successfully sucked me in to its narrative and super fun combat.
