And while it gets along pretty well with dark souls philosophy, it is ruined at every possible aspect

• Castrated - whole game is just running through a long corridor and fight. No map interactions, no enemy interactions - nothing. Massive downgrade from dark souls 2. It feels like this game is a moneycow so they had to make it safe keeping the "only important" thing - the souls formula
  
  
• Map design - not only castrated in terms of features, but also visually. If you don't like color grey then you'll find this game pretty boring
  
  
• Leveling - it's like elden ring but instead of vigor you level stamina
  
  
• Enemies - I can't stress enough how much this game sucks balls here. Absolutely the gankiest souls game there is, everything is screaming at you and you can't even run away as many enemies now run faster than you do.
  
  
• Bosses - Gundyr, Nameless king and soul of cinder. Maybe dragonslayer armor. These are the only actual bossfights you will have. Leader by the number of gimmick bossfights and the rest is basically rng-based.
  
  
• Weapons - while I really want to say this game made progress at least here - no, fuсk me, all those special weapons with cool alt attacks do dogsh*t damage and you'll spam R2 R1 anyway.
  
  I don't know what people like about it. It maybe got faster, but at expense of every feature that previous games had.
