    Vigil: The Longest Night absolutely holds its own, both in 2D adventure games, as well as in the glut of Souls-alikes that have emerged in recent years. It’s fast, fun and rewarding to players who manage to overcome the initial similarities to FROM Software’s series, and manages to carve its own unique take on the formula, with strong narrative and combat hooks to support it. If only those load times could let us get to the action sooner.

So if you havent closed the software in 10 hours...well there goes that 10 hours. it blows my mind that they would not have the saves go directly to the system immediately instead of when you close the game....and obviously it'd be nice for the game to not crash constantly, but I wouldn't mind that so much if I could ACTUALLY LOAD MY SAVE AFTERWARD!!! (I just lost about 8 hours and I'm never playing this stupid game again. And it's a shame because when it's working, its a great game.… Full Review »
