The game comes from the people who also made Enslaved: Odyssey to the West a game that back than totally suprised me and came out of nowhere, but I found brilliant.

But without any further words here is a trailer, do yourself a favour and watch it full screen and with audio!!!! Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

YES! Finally a release date.

I was following development since over a year ago. I was begining to wonder when it would come out.
Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the first opening they develop is the anus.
This means that at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Some people never develop beyond this stage.

Looks interesting, but not a fan of the camera angles I've seen in gameplay footage. But, I do understand their concept, there, I think - Player as observer. (I'm not considered tall, but I think I'm a bit taller than that camera position.)

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West looked beautiful and was fun for a time, but I ran out of skill before I was able to finish it, so I'm not as interested in a game from that developer as others might be.

Yes it is, but one that actually (hopefully) has a good story.

The did put out some really interesting behind the scenes stuff: Senua's Sacrifice Development Diary 24: Hearing Voices

Well it lacks more or less all RPG elements. There will be only one weopen, no inventory, no HUD, no leveling system.

Enslaved was good UNTIL you got to the end. Then it got botched. You did not miss much.
Still, I liked the gameplay enough to give hellblade a try, and from what I've seen I really like the setting and the efforts that have been put towards the atmosphere and fight mechanics. I just hope the story will be good all the way through, this time.
