Has some serious performance issues regarding the asset streaming, so regardless of your setup, it will stutter around a bit at times. However, it doesn't break the game.

Gameplay wise it's Dark Souls 3, mostly. But I have to say the enemies heavily rely on sweeping attacks with large hitboxes, and they have a lot of poise and stamina, next to doing the Dark Souls 2 introduced playertracking mid-attack. From Dark Souls 1 to Elden Ring, you can tell they've increased the difficulty for the sake of making it difficult. Something the Original Dark Souls was never meant to be.

That said, despite the frustrations I sometimes have with the cheap deaths, there is a lot to like about the game. And for every wall you hit, you will eventually find a way around it. Or you try someplace else, and come back later this time around. Something you weren't able to do before.

Can't comment on the multiplayer aspect, as I have to use a hack to get ultrawidescreen support and that triggers the anti-cheat. So... yeah.
