Incredible souls-like that in some ways is a major improvement from the Fromsoft games gameplay wise. The lore, art direction, and bosses are impeccable and make this one of the best video game worlds I've ever seen. There was some definite hours of repeatedly dying and grinding for star fragments but my god once you defeat them, it's all so worth it. It's so beautifully well-made and the individual chapters are very well designed. The gameplay loop is super addicting as well. This is easily one of my favorite games of the year!
