Anyone else interested in this game? I really liked the look of it when it was first revealed but hadn't heard anything of it since then until I just saw Game Informer put out a gameplay video today. I wasn't aware that an animated trailer had come out at the start of the month or that the developers had been putting out OST from the game on their YouTube channel through November, so I have a lot to check out and catch up on. I haven't watched all of the gameplay video yet so I'll give my comments on that later when I'm done with it.
