As someone who has beaten every Dark Souls game and Sekiro this continues FromSoftware's streak of making banger after banger. This game is superb from start to finish and even though it's their longest game so far I never felt like I was wasting time. There's so much to do on your first playthrough and the sheer amount of weapon and build variety is enough to encourage further playthroughs of the game.

My only qualm is that I found most the bosses to be pretty underwhelming in terms of difficulty. Besides a handful of stand-outs, most didn't prove to be that difficult of a challenge to me. However, I understand that this is a very personal complaint; as stated before I have a good amount of experience in the genre so I'm not surprised that the fights weren't too difficult.

This game is both a treat for Souls veterans and newcomers to the genre, and is worth all of the hype it built up. I strongly recommend it, even if you've never played a soulslike before.
