i really enjoyed it but it is very much a gitgud souls game because it doesn't have dodge roll i-frames, you have to parry to avoid damage. and that means some bosses and enemies are wew, i never managed to beat the last boss cuz I got lazy and tired but the game was very enjoyable, the world was amazing to explore and i enjoyed the story and NPC interactions a lot more than Elden Ring and Bloodborne. There is a ton of mobility and a focus on stealth which makes it stand out from other souls titles. finding secrets while exploring felt really rewarding as did planning out fights from the shadows or rooftops and picking off enemies one by one.

probably my favorite souls game out of the 3 i played
