Its difficulty grabbed me by my balls and squeezed them tighter than a gorilla in heat.

Absolutely fantastic piece, phenomenal soundtrack, pleasing visuals (with outstanding character design), and really satisfying gameplay (Altough I am still conflicted whether a long walking sections are a good thing, or a bad thing).

Story is mysterious yet intriguing enough for me to research stuff about it outside of the game. What happened, where happened, what are the consequences of these actions. Its filled with symbolism and leaves enough room for self interpretation; it doesn't treat you like an idiot. Characters had depth to them, and bosses truly were the star of the show here.

In addition there is a bunch of replayability value with speedrunning mode (which I recommend doing at least once to really see how much you progressed in the game in the sense of your skills, and how easy you can now deal with bosses that were a real issue for you before), as well as furier difficulty, which has no respect for you, no regard for your mental health, or physical health for that matter.
