As a FromSoft fan, this game blew my mind over and over again, refining the Dark Souls formula to near perfection and expanding the scope to new levels. I never imagined the game being this expansive in my wildest dreams. Some of the bosses near the end did not impress me as much as I wanted them to, with questionable design choices dragging the experience down at what should've been the climax. The game could've had more dungeons / more variety in them. Besides those nitpicks, I adored every moment I was playing it. This is all not even talking about the fantastic world-building and story. Over 300 tries on Malenia and loved it. Cannot wait for the DLC and to see where the "Souls" series goes next. 9.5/10
