Elderborn is like if you took Dark Messiah if it was made after Dark Souls came out. The weapons feel kind of sluggish at first, but thats just something you have to adjust to; afterwards they can feel great. Its just kind of a viscerally satisfying game if you like melee combat.

The world is pretty cool i think.

The game does feel way too short for me though. There are 2 pretty big levels you go through, and then the last chapter is just a wave based fight with no final boss. It's a cool set piece to end on, but fuck was I wanting another level to explore.
