Ashen is a game with a really interesting visual style, and a lovely aesthetic universe that got me interested very early on. Now that it's finally out, obviously I had to take a quick look at it.

It's mechanics are... well, let's be real, they're lifted wholesale from Dark Souls, but they're applied to such a different visual universe (and, one hopes, such a different story) that it feels less like a "everything Dark Souls sells well by default!" cash grab than a real stand-alone game that just happens to use similar mechanics.
