just got this game for the ps3, id done alittle research beforehand so i knew it was suppose to be a challenging game. So i got it and im having a hard time putting it down, the game is definetly one of the most challenging games ive played. The only way you'd die is by making a mistake while in combat not something the game does just to irritate you and say its a challenge. It's a great game with a pretty good community in it. If you want an action RPG that isnt just hack n slash and easy id pick it up.
