This is a roam around and kill bad guys and do the occasional group mission game. Roaming around with some friends definitely increases the fun. I would score it higher except that they took the approach that many developers are doing these days. Release a game with a great concept. Give them enough stuff to do for a couple months.Some people will leave but others will stick around for the content releases to see if they live up to their expectations. I'll wait around until the first expansion. They better hurry though or risk losing people who get board without progression.

My friend constantly raved about how this game was so great because it is challenging. I agree that it was very challenging at time. What the developers of this game forgot to put in this game was fun. I beat the game (minus the ancient dragon) and other than a sense of achievement in over coming the challenge, it was not fun. I do not feel relaxed. If anything the more I played this game the more despair and stress I developed. When it was over I was happy. Not happy because the game fulfilled me but happy that I can uninstall it and never play this game again.

Good: Design Style is awesome Good: The game is fun to play. Good: I love all the abilities and normal difficulty feels pretty balanced. Good: I like how you are limited on your quick saves so it adds another challenge to the stealth style game. Nothing breaks the risk than having a quick save before every kill. Hard difficulty is even better as you only get auto saves and every mistake might mean killing 13 guys all over again. Good: The story mixed in with gameplay to remind you constantly what you were doing in these locations. Bad: Normal difficulty and Hard difficulty have the same enemies and they have the same patrol patterns. If you play pure stealth, then hard isn't much different than normal other than how fast they kill you. Bad: Really short. I beat the game on Normal and then Hard. One day of playing for each. Bad: Challenges might have been fun, but forcing us to redo our abilities before each round is stupid. Just give us some abilities and make us deal with what you give us. Bad: Becoming a Vampire that can do it all removes the replay of this game. If picking different skills actually means I would not get to have others would limit our characters and cause us to play differently each time through. As it is no matter what by the last level you have capped out all abilities.
