then you are going to be sadly disappointed my friend. The combat is much more like the witcher.

Amalur, where you killed enemies with 3-4 hits in a very combat-centric gameplay?

The comparison she made seems very poor to me. The game seems to have a terribly boring and underdeveloped combat system. For instance, look at when the enemies are hit. It is just a health bar decreasing, absolutely nothing more.

Disagree as much as you like, but we're looking at a 50-60 Metacritic game here.

She's clearly a budding writer, who's just getting started. A year from now she'll be far better. It's a difficult learning process. Let's support her and her work.

I agree about the game, I'm psyched to get a halfway decent (at least) RPG on PS4.

It's actually pretty damn good, considering Spider isn't that big of a developer.

One thing I love about the live feed is that you can see gameplay from actual players and not vids from devs that only show the best parts. I was watching a live stream of it in PS4 this morning with breakfast and it looked pretty good (especially with the lower asking price of $50 for next gen versions). I just wish the guy streaming the gameplay wasn't so jumpy. They were acting like it was the middle of the night playing Outlast. I've never heard of anyone screaming so much from regular encounters.

I'm guessing it has something to do with the digital release being yesterday and the retail release being Friday.

*this is a complete theory that wasn't researched so salt is recommended with reading my comment*

Reviews are embargoed until the 9th. I can tell you it is good, but not great. Just don't go into it with super high expectations provided you purchase the game. Spiders certainly has potential to make something great though I can tell you that.
