Incredibly addicting and snappy combat mechanics made this game work for me where many dungeon crawler-type games have failed in the past. It is endlessly satisfying to hit a perfect parry into a slurry of rad combos.

It also balances difficulty in a way that gelled with me more than many other "challenging" games. Though it does start to get easier as you progress, any enemy can be a challenge if they catch you off guard. It's hard for me to put finger on exactly why this one worked better for me than, say, FromSoftware games, where I find the difficulty extremely grating.

Get this on PC so you can play with mods that turn you into Neo.
