Double post! That’s what it means.
Yeah, the whole Dante’s Inferno setting is just the flavor. Basically it’s a God of War clone. The rest is just an excuse. From what I recall of the first few hours, you play a guy who is part of the Crusades into muslim lands, and he goes back from the Crusades, and yada yada, wife pulled into hell, yada yada, he goes through the layers of hell to try to find her. Or something like that.
