Spent 23 hours playing and the game is definitely Dark Souls feeling. Frustration around every corner and no helpful points of direction. The same NPC's are scattered across the land somehow able to be in the same place at the same time and if you kill them in 1 place they somehow aren't able to be in the same place at the same time anymore because they get taken out of the game. This was my experience. Don't waste your time or money until there are loads of guides out because the developers are lazy as hell with any guidance or tips.

Great MMO. Very addictive.
