Personal pick for GOTY 2023. Gameplay was fun and added something new to the souls formula with the legion arms and customizable weapons. The bosses were all unique and none of them were completely garbage, at worst being slightly annoying to deal with. Parrying felt satisfying and responsive and being able to play the game choosing to only parry or only dodge gives you more ways to tackle the enemy. The music was surprisingly good too and helped amplify the atmosphere the game was going for. The story was also very interesting with outstanding moments that stick out in your head. My only complaint with the game is that for certain enemies towards the late game, the health may be slightly over tuned and some enemies hit boxes are deceptive. Otherwise a truly fantastic game/experience that I couldn’t recommend enough.
