I am considering buying this. Is it worth the money?

It is very, VERY, odd and it has a nasty learning curve that lasts about an hour. That said, the game is oddly addicting and the combat is highly amusing.

Depends. Are you willing to look past a lot of questionable execution of fantastic ideas? It's too ambitious for its own good and does a terrible job of introducing new players to its more arcane features, but it's compelling and just likable; this is an indie game with a nearly unprecedented scope.
I sure hope they get a demo out soon.

I think a demo would be tricky; as GunFox said, the learning curve is about an hour or so, so it would either be a really long demo, or a normal length demo that leaves the player unsatisfied and confused.
the story...or lack thereof...or backstory.....err....it is hard to explain... is a large part of what makes the game interesting. If you take the time and read the history in the game and pay attention to the conversations everything seems to be connected to everything else. There is a big picture here, but it is almost impossible to properly piece together and comprehend. A demo just wouldn't make that apparent. Hell you can play the entire game and not realize the depth of the lore here.

So it's like Demon's Souls in regard to story?
(This is going to seem really silly to anyone who has not played Demon's Souls...)
No not really.

Demon's Souls is pretty easy to understand
I have played this game for 10 hours and still have practically no clue what is going on I definitely enjoy the coop more. If you get it you may love it but it might be worth waiting to see what the devs do with it. On the other hand it is nice to support the people who had this much ambition.
did they finally make the game not dark as fuck
e.y.e. can't see shit

Lighting in cc_temple*, cc_new_eden, cc_tuto and cc_monolith[/quote]
Probably.
Yeah, the lighting is definitely better. I had the brightness up all the way pre-patch, and when I launched it with the patch it looked like it was fullbright or something. :v:

Theres quite a lot on err.. metastreumonisomethingerism, and theres a hell of a lot of backstory and the like in the libraries regarding the plot, but the game does just a little (massive) bit chuck you in without explaining any plot
also
"Decreased the player's Heavy Armor protection"
Shame, i was enjoying playing as the walking tank + minigun combo, bullets bouncing off everywhere was awesome
Edit:
The game is now much, much improved after this patch
