large number of backgound-noise and sound effects gets 5 stars even its over-rate-ed defines adventure in game, even not in room that reminds how good was tomb raider in it, expected a quest guard to lead to a mission to fill the bottles with essences, let say the sward is to heavy but with them light like feather. unreal game-engine has make it to large apx 2gb to wait and load, so rate is based only from gameplay video.

Thanks for the feedback. The name Essence of Grimm is actually a homage to Dark Souls. Definitely get the size complaint. I always try to bring the size down a bit, but unreal makes that difficult.
