    I got an email from amazon saying it was pushed back a week.

    I actually like that news, will get SMT:IV finished before it comes out.

    I'v had it on my wishlist for a while but seeing the latest gameplay footage really peaked my interest. It might fill the gap that Dark Souls 2 couldn't.

    Does anyone know if they confirmed how long it will take to finish the main storyline?

    Think 15 hours for a play-through but if you go down some optional routes it can be upwards of 40 - 50 hours.

    Also, there are 2 or 3 NewGame play-throughs to fully complete it.

    Developers response to movement speed criticism and other things. Guess people complaining never used havels set in Dark Souls or even know what the term "fat roll" means :D

    @calex71 - Very true, I had the Havels set, and loved it but man you were a slow lump with it on. Really looking forward to this game, it does not look as punishing as Dark Souls but it looks like alot of fun either way.

    Wouldn't put too much stock in a Polish magazine early review of a Polish game but encouraging signs nonetheless.

    I'd put more weight in something like this...



    Fans of Souls will no doubt be familiar with VaatiVidya's excellent lore videos from the series so far. If you're not then check them out, they're excellent.

    As for Lords of the Fallen, yep definitely looking forward to it even more now. :)

    Normally I wouldn't either but this team have been nothing if not 100% straight up from the outset about what it is they are making and what it is they are putting out.

    Like when they have been showing off the game to various people, they are quick to admit to the dark souls influence and talk about real game mechanics and explain and correct people in different things which is refreshing in an age of over hype and false promises. Like some of the E3 stuff they were at pains to dismiss various things and confirm other aspects almost to a point where you feel like it;s commercial suicide. If i get a game that I was not expecting from this I will say to myself "Good game devs you fooled me"

    Really excited for this. I was wondering when a good souls clone would show up and this looks like its going to be it. VV's video has definitely sold it to me!

    I'll chance a digital download from the US store in the morning. Can't wait to play this, combat looks better than Dark Souls just hoping the boss fights are as epic

    A few more hours for PC version. A couple big names have it early on twitch. Armour matters a lot more than it does in dark souls. A lot of people forget about armour in souls and go naked for the speed because its next to useless anyway. Wont be naked runs in this. You can take a lot more hits with it on.

    7/10 on Eurogamer. Their biggest complaint seems to be that it's too similar to Dark Souls.

    Too similar to one of the best games ever....damn, that's awful :pac:

    Pretty poor review from PCGamer however. 58, and apparently is crashing constantly for them.

    57.99 in argos for those wanting a physical copy, seems to be the cheapest in b&m shops.
