Appears so, downloading right now

Ah they announced on their blog it will be available digitally today...even tho the official site for the game doesnt mention that lol. Is this supposed to be like Dark Souls?

Vaguely interested in seeing if this is any good. Looking forward to seeing reactions here from those of you downloading it.

Get more of a Witcher/Dragon Age 2 vibe from it - but I liked both so...

Considering it's by the people who made Mars: War Logs, and it appears to be that game with a fantasy reskin... why would you? I'd at least wait for some reviews (or a demo/"demo") to see if it has the same abysmal framerate problems and lackluster gameplay before shelling out for anything by Spiders. CDPR, they are not.

Gameplay and framerates seeming OK so far - the lip synching is the worst I've ever seen in a long while though. (PS4)

Story is abysmally bad so far - but the gameplay is decent - considering it's already $10 cheaper than normal it feels appropriately priced.

Yea I'm okay with this.

I'm having some buyers remorse about the South Park game because I paid 60 bucks for it. I can justify 50 for this (plus i work at a retailer, so dat discount)

The graphics are something else though - with graphics this good coming out of a low-end studio, I'm anxious as hell to see the Soul's title for PS4 and DA:Inq now - those should put this to shame, and this is GORGEOUS.

The "Feats" require skill points - so there's kinda more than 3 in a manner of speaking. 3 combat trees though, but there's other non-combat "skill trees" - looking like 4 but the last is still locked for me right now.

Sidenote: Showed it to the wife and she's completely addicted.... think I just cost myself $400. Heh. She's gonna need her own PS4 so I can get time with Wolfenstein and Watch Dogs later in the month.

It's $33 bucks right now at GMG. Try using this coupon code 9HZ09L-D4RYEU-FIW8BE for an additional 25% off making the total $25.

Street date has been dropped for the physical copies

First review I've seen gave it a 8.5, I'd stick closer to 7.5 personally but still not shabby for a first review.

Polygon and Gamespot gave it a 4/10 lol
I'm still curioous about this game simply because theres nothing else on the PS4

I was watching some streams of it for a bit and it seemed pretty underwhelming from a glance. Combat didn't seem to have any weight to it and apparently there is no way to jump.
