Revenant

Maybe the best hack and slash game of all time, you come into the world as Revenant, powerful warrior with tainted blood. Then you go on some quests killing respawning monsters. Under all that killing there is actually very sad and tragic story. Gameplay is very good, because beside using swords and axes you can learn fighting skills so it resembles those old fighting games like streets of rage. Art direction is excellent and really this game looks beautiful. Only thing is absence of music but that could be some bug as I read on forums.
