EL BAB

i love the atmosphere, the artstyle, the characters, but what i dont love is the gameplay, the ganks are cheap and the enemies are spongy, the dodge button doesnt even have i-frames like every other soulslike, and i would imagine if i were to keep playing this game, all the unique enemy and boss designs would be thrown out the window by the fact that every attack gets lumped under one of 3 categories, dodge, parry, and dodge twice. there doesnt seem to be much build variety, and the control scheme is extremely awkward
