I've always said that in order to reach new audiences videogame developers needed to be bold and make changes.

And let's be honest here, FromSoftware games were in dire need of some changes.

However by making these changes there's a possibility that some members of the core audience might be alienated.

This is a necessary step of progress.

Unfortunatley for me, I'm part of that alienated core audience.

I think this is a good game, great at times even.
But I'm 15 hours in and I just can't lie to myself any longer.

It's not for me. I've seldom been this bored while playing a videogame.

Hope everyone else on here has a great time with the game though.

I do think that changing things up like this was a good step for FromSoftware and I can't wait for their next project.
