I heard a lot about this title, man. I watched a spoiler-free review a few days ago and they praised it a lot despite being a bit challenging at first trying to learn all the mechanics.
I love how it kinda forces you to learn the melee attacks and makes you practice a lot to get the hang of it. It could be punishing at first but that progression should feel quite good after all the practice.
It looks amazing too!
It is an impressive game. I've been hype for a long time, even more so when it was announced a year ago. I never buy a game out of the box because $70 is a good number for me.
The combat is very well done, at the beginning you get beaten up and as you develop your skills your attacks become faster and harder.
