Fancied something new and exciting this afternoon and spent 50 of my best £ on this.

So far, not regretting it in the slightest. It’s getting middling to very positive reviews. Which tbh is par for the course for Spiders. I think it’s probably their best, most polished title but it’s not perfect. It’s also not £70. Most Spiders gamesI like the look of, but bin within half an hour*, but this is more than just a step or two up in quality.

Not sure how well it runs on deck as I got this one on PS5 just because Rach may want to give it a go.

*I will say, Rachel played Greedfall to the end and really enjoyed it though; and I was more entertained watching her play than playing it myself.

Combat is very interesting. I actually think it’s quite an innovative take on Soulslike combat and class structure.
