I think this is my third or fourth attempt at beating this thing. Farthest I got to was Ornstein and Smough. But I did it, finally. Man, what an experience. True, it was a rocky road in some parts. Some of the later game areas obviously didn’t get as much attention as the first half, and some bosses were pretty disappointing, and one was straight up bad. But everything else is excellent. Weighty, satisfying combat; incredible atmosphere; some of the best level design I’ve ever had the pleasure of exploring; incredibly deep lore that I absolutely did not fully understand, but I did my best; fun, memorable bosses, and enemies… This game has it all, man. This is now the second FromSoft game I’ve beaten, Bloodborne being the other one. Overall, I prefer Bloodborne, but this is still an incredible game worthy of your time.
