Disappointing. Loved Golf Story.

Felt unfinished, buggy, and lacking direction. Golf is the the only decent sport to play and you don't get to play enough of that.

Second worst game I played in 2023

Loved this as a kid, still liked it alot when I played it a few years ago. I genuinely like this more than Mario Kart. You can play this single player with more enjoyment imo because it's a story mode. The characters are also better because you can be Timber.

For me this is the best From Software game. The atmosphere and level design are on point. Gameplay feels better than Dark Souls or Elden Ring, because it focuses on your engagement in combat. It encourages you to maintain an aggressive play style since a decent amount of bosses can be staggered by successive attacks. The parry/counter system also works better, because it is an integral part of combat and not some wonky shield waving. At last also the story is pretty cool and also comprehensible, even if you don‘t want to read item descriptions all the time, which is also a weakness of other Souls games.
