Hi All,

I'm new to the scene and was wondering if you could shed some light on what I should be expecting from this game. I'm the kind of gamer who usually sticks to multiplayer games/co op and am the kind of person who can get very jumpy when playing single player games, especially one's invovling monsters or things that will make me jump.
So am i going to be constantly getting nervous in dark caves and running away in panic? or isn't it too bad?

I really like the idea of being able to explore and build up my own character, so to what extent are we looking at here? is it pretty open world and how customizable are the charaters?
Do you follow a story?

I've watched a few videos on it, and it looks pretty exciting i just worry I won't push on with it as I don't want to spend all my time in dark scary places

I was going to leave it a few days and watch some streams/videos and see if I liked it or not but i decided to just be a man and order it before heading to work, the steam download was around 5gig i think, is that correct? seems a bit small compared to other games i've downloaded recently.

any feedback on what sort of things i should be expecting to get from this game would be really great.

Thanks

(not sure if you can block out spoilers here, but personally i don't mind them but i'm sure other people do so please warn before you put up any spoilers )
