Graphics- and mechanics-wise, it looks nice. But what I don't get is why would anyone spend money to obtain rights to use what's likely a pretty pricey IP... and then seemingly pick a handful of terms/concepts/names but not their context, and build a game around those? Is the available 'lore' truly too poor to provide game-fodder enough?

The nemesis-system seems truly interesting, imo. I'm looking forward to that.

The rest, though... Colour my flabber gasted.

Also... Raziel called. He's pouting about them taking away his unique resurrection. ;)
