I may write up a full review later but for now I'll just say a few things. 1. Definitely not for casuals. I'm playing on easy and when I got to my first boss fight I assumed because I was on easy I wouldn't have to worry to much about the boss. Wrong! My ass got handed to me and I had to actually load a save from 30 minutes back so I could read about the monster and make potions to fight that bastard. 2. From just 5 hours of game time this game has screamed Game of Thrones from every corner. I love how these decisions are not Good versus Evil but their more convoluted and knowing the right thing to do isn't obvious. 3. Loving the lore so far. I'm actually considering picking up the books for this one. The best part is that the game is based off the books so I shouldn't be seeing complete tosh from a writer who is trying to work with existing ideas ( Looking at you Halo, Gears of War, & every other book based off a video game)
