I'll start off by saying this is my first souls-like game, at least FromSoftware. I've played Fallen Order before, but that's a different kind of souls-like game. I first started off hating this game, thought it was too hard. I bought and refunded this game I think twice.

My friends pressured me into continuing to play this game, and I finally started to enjoy the game for what it was. It began being fun to have something to work towards, and become much better at the game. (in all aspects)
The bosses and mechanics in this game are something.. interesting to say the least. Takes a long time to get used to, and I've spent multiple days and weeks on one boss. Nothing better than finally beating a boss and the relief going by.

The game is enormous, beautiful, and so many different areas to roam and find new items.
- Gameplay (10/10)
- Visual (10/10)
I'd 100% recommend this to anyone new to the franchise or not.
