It would be entirely understated to say this is a great game—the feeling of an authentic open-world experience that is not gated by monetization is refreshing. Ubisoft, if you are listening, take notes. Fromsoftware has hit it out of the park with the environment and feel of this game. If you have never played a souls game, I recommend you give this game a chance and lean into the frustration as you develop tactics for taking down enemies and relish in the feeling of a hard-fought victory.

TLDR: Buy the game | Die many deaths | Enjoy Victory
