Absolutley blown away by this game, and needed to write this post, for those who care:

The lore, the story, the music, the gameplay is all top notch. Honestly, I expected this to be a 7 out of 10 but so far it's a 10 in my book. I just can not stop playing this game. Reminds me alot of playing on Death March for TW3 (I'm on Duelist for Dawnwalker)

One thing I really wanted to talk about is this game has done something I haven't seen for years:

The Open World feels meaningful! I can not believe how good it feels plotting how I am opposing Brencis' rule, I love it. Feels like a Vampire freedom fighter game.

Minor spoilers ahead:

Even the supposedly "mundane" open world tasks are meaningful and lead to new opportunities like disrupting supply lines for one of the lords which led to a swordsman merchant and a minor boss fight.

By far the most immersive thing for me so far is talking to someone related to the resistance from the dungeon in a stronghold that I talked my way into, followed by promising that I would come back to save him... just to come back at night, scale the towers and bite the two guards and drink their blood until they died, then saving the prisoner to fight my way out of the entire place.

I haven't felt immersion like this since KCD2, but I haven't felt a power trip and immersion since god knows how long. I say power trip, but I still get my arse kicked.

This game has every thing I enjoy and I really will be looking forward to a (hopeful) sequel.
