Coming to this after playing Harmony of Dissonance felt a bit strange; I really missed the whip and the classic items. Thankfully, most of the weapon types in this wound up being pretty fun still. Just as well, a lot of the demon soul abilities were fill-ins for the classic items, though some of them were even better in some cases. The music is definitely a huge and immediately noticeable upgrade from HoD's, which was quite welcome.

Despite all the positives, I think I still actually prefer HoD over this, just by a bit.
