A true masterpeice. I think FromSoft and Miyazaki truly outdid themselves and I am going to enjoy dissecting this title for years to come. The mechanics are streamlined and very easy to use, much better then past titles. The atmosphere seems lighter then past titles too even with the recent breaking of the world, and npc's actually point you in the direction you should go. The open world aspect is new, and while I enjoy it very much because of how it makes you explore, I also end up missing the linear encounter set ups and hidden connections through the map. However those are still present within the games many dungeons and story areas. I think the one aspect that could truly push this game further is climbable monster's, but short of that this game is an S++
