So... we got a mix of Devil May Cry and Dark Souls in a beautiful and colorful fantasy setting? Sign me up! This is the kind of game I've been waiting for. So I bought it, downloaded it... and was surprised but happy that it even has a Linux port! (So no WINE needed and less bugs... awesome!) After installing it I immediately noticed the first (minor) flaw: It's a straight console port and in menus/etc. it often only shows the xbox button you have to press and since the button mapping dialog at the start is really confusing to me (I never owned an xbox so I don't quite know e.g. the difference between l/r trigger and button). But after trying every key on my keyboard in each menu I've mostly figured it out. So I started the game and played some hours... and some more hours because I simply couldn't stop! If you are looking for a challenging fast-paced combat game with some actually really decent riddles, you can stop searching because you finally found it. The characters are pretty single-sided however. At least they are as far as I played which is immediately after the first boss you can choose, what brings me to a feature in the game I really like: It's very open! The terrains are big enough for you to approach enemies from different angles which is helpful for some skills. Sadly though my last critique point (which is also the reason why I've never played beyond the first boss): The game (or at least the linux version) is extremely unstable. And the cutscene after the first boss is even a point where it ALWAYS crashes. I can even reload (it saved that I've defeated him), shows me a certain sign (no spoiler) and then it crashes again. This is really sad because beside that the game is almost perfect. So final sentence: Buy it! But you will most likely enjoy it more on console.
