First off, 5 stars right out of the gate the introduction and entirety of the game is fantastic, however there are many repetitious bosses and my hatred for the godskin duo. I really don't like the addition of spirit ashes because it makes the game way too easy and I feel like some new players wouldn't get the true souls experience of suffering on a boss only to beat it, sure you can change your difficulty but when I used summons I was left with this weird feeling of guilt and I did something wrong. Replayability is fantastic however except once you realize what places are worth your time and not worth your time you skim over that part of the game quickly. But back to positive things, I love that enemies delay their attacks which make them seem so much more intelligent and alive, I love the idea of a normal guy going up against a literal god instead of being the cliche "chosen one" who was born powerful rather than becoming powerful through your decisions and actions, in other words it feels fantastic. 4.6/5
