(+) Yeah! (+)

It's pretty good. First boss was tough. Wasn't expecting that but it is a Fromsoft game after all.
Also kinda surprised It was only 30 dollars

Many things are dollars with an s

It's the most dollars game there is.

I need to pick it up again. Think I'm on act 3 and a mission is just kicking my ass

Lol forgot to add "30"
Edited

ill get it when its 5 dollars

Got the Steam equivalent of a Platinum. Had a blast with it. One of the best games Ive played in some time, and it reminded me how badly I missed short, tight, mission based gameplay as opposed to everything being open world.

how long is a single mission?

Depends on the mission, how thorough youre exploring, and when youre doing your exploring, but on average, Id say most of them are 5-10 minutes, with the longest ones being more like 20-30.

should I buy it at full price or wait for a sale? I kinda wanna play it but I know its already been on sale

I got my moneys worth out of it at full price but wishlisting it wouldnt hurt anything.

To do everything in the game requires 3 playthroughs. The first one is basically just unlocking all the parts and getting one of two endings. The first NG+ run you should make opposite choices to unlock some extra missions and get the other ending. The second NG+ run is a new ballgame, as you start getting missions that only show up in that route and more choices, as you can only do this route after completing the previous two.

NG+ is a breeze with a solid build, because you basically have all the good gear. The repeat missions in NG++ are more of the same, but some of the new missions are pretty challenging and the whole end game is kind of a ride.

Took me 71.1 hours to do everything, including S-ranking every mission.
