Gets too much hate, while I do think a lot of the criticism for this game is fair, especially when it comes to some of the annoying mechanics and boss design being disappointing, this was the most fun I've had exploring the world in a FromSoft game besides Elden Ring. The DLC's improve upon the base game quite a bit, with some of the bosses there being genuinely great.

Amazing. Satisfying combat, incredible bosses and gorgeous looking map design all comes together in an incredible game. Even with its difficulty spike I would highly recommend this game to everyone who is willing to push through it.

It's a classic for a reason, even with dated gameplay the story and characters make this game very worth it.

Very good. Combat is probably the best we've had for Kiryu and the Agent style is super fun to use. Great story as well with such an impactful ending. Sets the stage for the next game perfectly.

The most ambitious RGG title so far and it does a lot of things right. Kiryu's journey is very emotional, Ichiban is great as always and with the improved gameplay and amazing soundtrack, this game is special. Fumbles with the writing sometimes but even with its flaws this is a wonderful game.
