The most accessable and streamlined "souls-like" game around. Whether you are new or veteran to playing these type of 'brutual/learn from death', both can find enjoyment and challenge.

*fast and better combo/skill system (speed depending on weapon)
*optional AI companion that can accompany you everywhere (can be turned off if you want to go solo)
*Play as any class you unlock, at any time. No more choosing between one.
*skills can be mastered and then used for any class
*3 different types of dodges---slow roll for heavies, fast roll for normal, magic dash for fast.
*magic dash covers farther than rolls, and can be used in succession more quickly than any roll
*doesn't take long to grind levels
*upgrading weapons and armor is easy if you dont ignore the more challenging enemies
*no forced online. Play the entire game single player if you desire, or co-op with friends.
*no troll messages from online players that send you to your grave

Now onto story.
Basically you are a Revenant, aka, a vampire. the world went to shiz when monsters attacked, and they experimented on people to revive the dead to become super soldiers---unstoppable soldiers that can keep coming back to life, as long as their heart doesn't get destroyed when they die. You join up with a colorful group of lovable chars that help you try to stop this disaster from getting worse. Not a single bad protagonist in this game. Everyone is lovable in their own way. Each with a well flushed out past that can be told through cutscenes, conversations, and memories.

That's all I want to give out for story. You will not be disappointed with this game. Easily one of my favorite Bandai Namco games, right up with God Eater and Tales of.


---Side note. I played this game at Max graphics, and have had no problems with the gameplay. Solid 60 frames 99% of the time. The only times I found slight frame drops was when you teleport to base. I played both the demo for 12 hours, and this game so far for 14. No hiccups. Try the demo out! See for yourself.
