Cavenagh: At last
Thanks for the info
For those wondering (I had to look these up):
Open world fantasy action RPG - but as I understand it can be played as a open world stealth action game if that's your thing.

MetaCritic gives it a value of 81 (of 100), and the users value it slightly higher, at 8.2 (of 10)
This is a PC port of a console game originally released by Capcom in 2012, and re-released in 2013.
Has innovative 'Pawn' system (err, wait, didn't Neverwinter Nights have this first?). You get three pawns. The first is an NPC specific to game world, the second and third are other character builds created by other players that I suppose are near your equivalent levels. These other 'players' will shout strategies to your character to help you defeat monsters. Oh, and you can climb on the boss guys, rather than just killing them by constantly kneecapping them or stubbing their toes. Of course, you could just sic your pawns on the bad guy, and hang back giving orders if action games get the best of you. Mods are also available on Nexus, if that's your thing.
Gameplay should run 40 - 50 hours for the main quest, and 60 - 70 with the side quests. I don't see any complaints about grinding, so that sound's fairly nice.

I do find it very interesting that Humble is going from a casual indie to a AAA hardcore gaming type game.
