I’ve only got about 5 hours in, but this is probably going to be the best AAA release this year. Note spam everywhere trying to trick people, co-op play, actually challenging combat but frankly so far is very manageable. Graphics are outstanding, and No Micro Transactions. In fact this is the first game I’ve seen in years where the “deluxe” edition is just the art book and soundtrack. This and Ghosts of Sushi Legends mode are the only reason a ps5 has any value so far.

How is the difficulty when compared to Dark Souls?
I haven’t gotten far enough to see if it scales, but having killed a few minor bosses/ open world mini bosses I’d say at least ds3 difficultly but open world format and the ability to sneak change it up a bit.
The new mechanics are also very important for boss fights, especially jumping, jump attacks and charge attacks.
Charge heavies in stealth are so nice for clearing trash mobs quietly
Lower. Notably, magic and ranged combat are much more viable than normal for a From Software game, because both are renewable resources in the field.
