Looks like the atmosphere is the strongest aspect right now. I do wish games like this would add a bit more gore/damage though. It's obviously already a mature game and there IS blood, so that's not an issue. Seeing these "hideous monsters" in their perfectly clean identical clothes that don't so much as get a blood stain when you slash them 10x with a massive sword is pretty disappointing.
Animations could use some variety too. Seeing the same death animation over and over gets really old. Let's hope this still has some development time to work out these issues, and maybe the gameplay will get more in-depth later in the game...
It's not as flashy looking, for sure. You'll never do a 20-hit combo and finish with a cinematic QTE where you cartwheel around the enemy and rip it's head through its ass. Doesn't make the games either slow or boring, the gratification just comes from the mechanics rather than some masturbatory cinematic. That's not to say that flashy games can't be good, i think DMC3 is a pretty good example of how you have both interesting mechanics and very flashy looking stuff at the same time.
Here's my handy guide to knowing if you should be hyped about this game; Did you play and love Demon's Souls and/or Dark Souls 1 and 2? Then get hyped. Didn't like any of those games? Then this is most likely not for you either. Haven't played any of the previously mentioned games? Go play Dark Souls right now, for fucks sake.
