Review written at 6 hrs of gameplay. I will push myself to finish or even platinum.

Long story short:
Imagine this is lies of p
>>> but it doesn't reward you for anything
>>> but mechanics are absolutely unclear
>>> but rolling / iframes are imaginary and just for lulz
>>> but platforming was made by someone who absolutely hates the players
>>> but the only balanced thing is DLSS / FSR
>>> but game is so poorly optimized that you will struggle playing 1440 p 120 fps with 7900 xt / 4080. Great achievement from the developer.
I cannot believe how stupid I was to buy this one. I just thought the mixed opinions must be from people who don't know how to git gud.
Please do NOT buy this game if you are into soulslikes.
Instead of this hot mess go and buy Lies of P or literally go change your money to coins and throw it off of the bulding one at a time. This would still be more thrilling experience and much better money management. You, as a reader of this review, cannot even comprehend how much I hate myself for not listening to steam reviews.
Please do not repeat my mistake.
Yours truly,

update 1 :
I put 10 hrs more.
Game is even trashier than at first. Extremely poor balance of enemies. Bosses are not any sort of danger. This game is copy paste enemies one next to another. I hope devs read the reviews because definitely they watch youtube videos on how to farm "vigor", their equivalent of souls/runes/blood echoes. I truly despise this game. I despise it for extreme lack of creativity, absurd amount of boss recycling as mobs and also for underdelivering everything it promised. I am very close to saying this game is 5% legit game and then it is elaborate asset flip eerily resembling Dark Souls 2 (SoTFS not vanilla, just for clarity).
Shame on you CI Games, Deck13 and Bandai Namco.
On top of that, just for this game I decided to switch 7900 xt to 4080 super (yeah, ikr having 2 cards is weird). Both cards cannot pull off stable 120 framerate at 1440p. Nice
