The level grind/story was pretty good, the initial endgame and grinding some good gear was fun and a little different. Then they went totally batshit insane with difficulty and nerfs. I played the game from release to Dark Souls 3 and I haven't been back since (except to grab an occasional weapon skin). At the time, I was so impressed with it around level 15, that I immediately bought the season pass. I even bought the extra outfits so I could make my character look exactly how I wanted. After beating my head against increasingly difficult content, including the first incursion. The game stopped being fun for me. There are plenty of hardcore folks out there that still play, but even they complain non-stop about the game. That said, it's still an enjoyable game. But I'm waiting until the first expansion hits PS4 before I really dive back into it. I'll know right then and there if the game wants me to keep playing.
