However, some players find the game's difficulty challenging, citing a steep learning curve and demanding boss fights as potential drawbacks. A few also mentioned frame rate inconsistencies.

    Soulsborne with a twist

    I bought this game for my brother. Since he has a full-time job, he rarely has time to play games but got so addicted to this one that he plays it for hours on end. The way he describes it, there's a lot of Dark Souls/Bloodborne DNA in there but there's enough differentiation in the gameplay to keep things interesting. Also worth noting is that (from what I understand), the lore and story of the game is based more on Japanese culture than the original creations found within typical soulsborne titles.

    The game is hard. Not really a surprise for a game from From Software, but the design goes beyond that. To begin the story flows and twist like a great mystery novel and has the player wondering. The gameplay has a steep learning curve, but once learn the combat becomes fulfilling and enjoyable. While there are few tools and fewer weapons to pull from, the open way of deciding how to play does not. Going from stealth to open combat easily. Planning how to fight or when to retreat and regroup. The is enjoyable because of its difficulty giving a sense of accomplishment when a tough part is beaten. While many of the bosses are a pain and tedious to fight. The slow and steady grinding of the fight challenges to the patience of the player. Many parts are confusing and the use of similar areas can feel repetitive. Personal I miss the ability to both aid and be aided by other players. This is a great if stressful game.

    It’s as hard as you want any Dark Souls game to be and as satisfying as you’ve come to expect. You’ll die a lot more than twice.

    Play as a Shinobi in Sengoku era Japan, seeking revenge against the samurai who kidnapped his lord and chopped off his arm. Traverse gorgeous environments fighting a multitude of punishing enemies and unforgiving level bosses each more powerful than the last. With an intriguing story-line as well as fleshed out characters, this is the most narratively-accessible game of all the FromSoftware titles. Play and see why this one 2019's game of the year. Highly recommended.

    there are some things this game sacrifices from the other souls games to tell a more concise story and i guess it would lose a few points for that. but, the combat is so addictive that i don't really care about anything else. i have beat it 10 times, all with the demon bell (hard mode) and no kuro's charm (chip damage) and i am still not tired of it. I am currently attempting no damage taken at all. If you bought this and are getting frustrated, don't give up!
