Looks very much like Dark Souls, which isn't a bad thing....but, if you showed me that without any context, i would have just assumed it was maybe part of the new areas of that DLC that came out(which i never got around to getting).

Looking at twitter, it seems most seem fine with it resembling and playing the past games. Almost preferred.

 

Some are noticing a new thing added to the HUD. Some say it looks like a timer.

Certainly doesn't look bad, and as long as the PC version isn't a wreck I'll totally play it. Guess it's just a sign of the super long console cycle.

Would be nice if they had some higher resolution textures for PC too. That looked ok, but it still had that washed out blurry look I can't stand.
