- Deliberate, methodical combat. Every attack is meaningful; every dodge and parry is crucial.
- Large procedurally generated and interconnected areas that encourage exploration. Wide open plains, dense forests, cramped dungeons, caves, towns, castles, even mazes.
- A huge amount of variety between characters, weapons, items, magic, and enhancements. The rules of gameplay, the AI, how the player interacts with the world can all change dramatically over the course of one playthrough.
- Imbalanced. The world does not bend to accommodate you. A conscious lack of normalized stability forces players to plan their trek and consider their battles.
- An air of mystery covers everything from game mechanics to lore. Achievements and unlockables are only hinted at through snippets of text discovered while exploring.
- A strong emphasis on risk versus reward gameplay. Every decision is your own responsibility and opening one door may close another.

Unforeseen obstacles will need to be dealt with in real time. So even a regular enemy will be deadly if you’re not careful.
To reach the end, players will need to show they can consistently overcome these obstacles. Failure can halt or even reverse progress.
