It's an open world Dark Souls game. That alone would be enough to get everyone hyped. The GRR Martin connection just makes it that much more hypeable.

It's basically an open world Dark Souls gameplaywise. The world and lore are all unique to it.

Also, there's giant lobsters in it, and I just can't even...

Hahaha, and that included things like falling / non-combat damage!

A while back, after she had done several, very careful playthroughs, Daughter started doing speed runs in TLoZ:BotW, like skip whole sections, defeat some of the end bosses without getting the special weapons, it's crazy.

That's impressive. Not just considering the skill involved, but the patience.
