Lords of the Fallen Preview

The editors over at TotalXbox.com have doled out their own preview of Lords of the Fallen, in which they round up six reasons why the RPG just might become the Xbox One's "first killer dungeon crawler." Two such examples:

3. Enemies can come back after you kill them

You'd better make sure that the Infested you just ran through with your sword is well and truly dead before you risk turning your back on it. Some - but not all - enemies in Lords of the Fallen have the ability to return to life after you slay them. It's a tricky little twist that has the potential to catch out hasty players when they're trying to make their way back to the point of their last death to reclaim lost XP.

4. There's room to explore

The game is divided into three worlds, but how big those worlds are and how exactly they're divided up has yet to be revealed. However, I'm told that it should take "an experienced Dark Souls player" around 20 hours to complete the game. That's pretty modest by open world standards, but for a dungeon crawler it's none too shabby.
