This is the poster child for not a game for everyone. If you are easily disturbed by horrific depictions of violence and filth of every nature, including graphic depictions of sexual assault, then this isn't for you. If you don't like games that are brutally punishing and relentlessly dificult then this isn't for you. If you like self contained narratives with satisfying endings then this isn't for you. But, if you can get past that, and truly immerse yourself in this games pitch black disturbing world, there is some real treasure buried in here. This game isn't for everyone. But it's definitely for ME. This is one of the greatest works of grimdark fantasy I've ever experienced, rivaling the likes of Berserk and Malazan. The treat of playing through this blind and discovering its esoteric systems, mechanics and world was akin to (dare I make the comaprison) playing through a souls game for the first time. I'm not sure if I can in good conscience RECCOMEND this game to anyone. But if anything I've said here sounds appealing in any way, maybe give it a try. If your a freak like me, it truly is a 10/10.
