No Rest for the Wicked
Reviews were pretty harsh and videos did not make it look that great. It’s been my main squeeze for about 100 hours now, having me put other games on hold only to return to it every evening after work.
Not even done yet, but currently, it’s a very solid EA game.

Absolutely amazingly beautiful game. The cutscenes…
makes me think of Arcane every time I load it up.
And then, it turns out it’s got solid gameplay, if you like Dark Souls type of games. It’s got that oomph to the fighting. That visceral feel that really makes the fighting enjoyable, although brutal. It’s got room for improvement for sure, but they keep polishing it and every time I come back it’s better. It’s hard to believe it’s only a fraction of the full game, too!
