This game has really helped me go through my extreme stress while graduating university and going into my Master's soon afterwards. It reduced my anxiety a lot and it just gives me comfort with it's gameplay and general atmosphere. It's such a beautiful game in terms of world-crafting, music, and sound-design. I know it's a meme, but this game gives me as much comfort as Skyrim did back when I was younger. It's the Skyrim of soulsborne games for me. I'd definitely recommend if you want a relaxing souls-like.

A Charming Disappointment. The gameplay is fun, except for some really long dull runs back to boss doors. What sucks is the loot. It's nearly all the same 5 items. Also, the trailer for coop is nothing like what you will experience. Coop is a joke, good luck getting it to work - it's random at best of times. If this had proper coop and just more rewarding exploration it would have been a top tier game. As it is, it's worth playing through once. Forget the DLC.

Underrated souls-like game, with a wonderful world, lovely music and voice acting, as well as enjoyable combat. I'll preface this with I purchased this on Epic first, and have at least triple the play time there. I honestly love this game, and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a souls-like game, it's not quite as challenging, or as deep with lore, but it makes up for that with charm, IMO. The only real complaint I have about this game is the matchmaking for co-op, whomever your partner is basically takes over your in game AI partner, with no name above, or any real indicator there's a person in there aside from them running off to do something aside from being by your side. If you've been considering trying it, there certainly won't be a better opportunity. You've wasted $10 on much worse, we all know that street meat still haunts your bathroom to this day.

I found it quite fun, though it does have it's downsides. Playing solo is not the greatest, playing with a friend is a lot more fun, and quite a bit easier. But getting co-op to work is a bit confusing at first. The game it self looks good, with a quite unique art style, maybe lacks a bit of character customization, but it's not too necessary. A lot of different weapons, with a lot of different attack animations, so do try every single one you come across to find the one you like the best. Bosses are few and quite far away from each other, but they are fun to fight and not too difficult, me and my friend found it more difficult to get to the bosses, rather than bosses themselves. Stamina is very limited, and fighting and navigating in the dark is annoying, not being able to use a two handed weapon and a lantern was frustrating. The world has some very different looking areas, which makes it more enjoyable to explore. Also it's very nice to see the main base area expand and flourish as you progress through the game. As a whole, a lot more fun that I had expected, even with it's flaws. I do recommend it.

8/10 Great For co-op. Not so good for single. Some minor problems, but over all a great game. Well recommended.
