What players say
Most players recommend it as a strong Souls-like with satisfying combat and a striking world, held back mainly by performance problems and uneven difficulty.
Many players praise the combat, which mixes weapon combos, magic and a flexible build system that can be respecified for free at any time. Level design and environments draw frequent praise, and several reviewers call the art and scenery beautiful. Some compare it favourably to FromSoftware titles, especially for exploration. Complaints centre on performance: stuttering, upscaling that cannot be disabled, and crashes on PC. Some players find the difficulty inconsistent, with bosses that are either trivially easy or unfairly punishing, and the Madness system punishes beginners harder. Some reviewers also criticise the sparse plot, confusing navigation and the censorship of certain bosses, which some call a poor decision. Recent reviews are more mixed, mostly around performance, and a few of them mention the bosses being too easy.
Praised
- Satisfying combat and builds
Weapon combos, magic and free respec let players experiment with many builds and fights feel fluid.
Many players - Beautiful art and environments
Reviewers call the scenery, visual design and atmosphere striking, with memorable areas and character designs.
Many players - Strong exploration and level design
Interconnected areas, shortcuts and hidden paths reward exploration, and some reviewers compare the design favourably to FromSoftware games.
Some players - Good Souls-like feel
Players who know the genre say it captures the feel of FromSoftware games and ranks among the best non-FromSoftware titles.
Some players
Criticised
- Performance and stuttering
Stuttering, crashes and the forced upscaling of the Unreal Engine 5 build hurt the experience on PC, even after patches.
Many players - Uneven difficulty
Bosses range from trivially easy to unfairly punishing, and the Madness system makes early learning harder for new players.
Many players - Censorship and the story
Players criticise the censorship of certain bosses, which no longer die, and a fragmented plot that many find hard to follow.
Some players - Confusing navigation and level layout
Repetitive areas, a convoluted map and missing guidance make it easy to get lost, and some players find the layout frustrating.
Some players
- Who it suits
- Players who enjoy Souls-like combat, build experimentation and exploration, and who can tolerate rough performance.
- Who should skip it
- Players who want smooth performance, a clear story or consistently fair boss difficulty should skip it or wait for fixes and a sale.
Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours are split, often frustrated by the early difficulty and navigation, while those with 20 hours or more mostly enjoy the combat and builds.
