I know literally nothing about this game and I mostly play FPS or racing games. What even is this game and what does the actual gameplay look like? I don't give a crap about stories as I always skip them. I just want to know what the actual gameplay loop consists of.

It's a fairly realistic medieval adventure rpg, sword fighting is stance based and very hard, you also suck at everything to begin with because you start off as an illiterate blacksmiths son. The sequel is a continuation of his story. It's pretty story focused but you can definitely have a ton of fun just wandering around stealing shit and fighting people if you want to, once you get good at stealing and fighting

Hmmmm... Sounds potentially interesting. I'm guessing I don't have to have played the first one before I play the second one?

I'll probably throw it on the ol wishlist and wait for a sale.

The second one gives you the necessary flashbacks to catch up if you should intend to follow the story. It also explains all the basics of the game mechanics as part of the quests.

Sounds intriguing. I'll definitely check it out.
