[quote=@Heat]I'm legit playing through it right now, haven't been able to put it down since I got it a few days ago for 15$. I don't think it deserves the mediocre reviews it got at launch. It's a pretty damn fun game, the hordes are exhilarating and terrifying to face down. The story and presentation isn't anything revolutionary but its not bad at all.[/quote]
I honestly think I would've been happy paying anywhere from full price to forty dollars for this title.

It's got its problems, but its four act structure seems to work quite well and while it is frustrating at times it is genuinely enjoyable within what it does well. It's emotive storytelling and characterization isn't as "dumb" and "bad" as critics made it out to be. On New Game+ now and I'm still having fun with it.
