Not sure about this game after seeing the play presentation. There's been so many souls-like disappointments that's been released, that I don't have much hope with this one. Not as good looking as presented in previous trailers.
I guess Fromsoftware's craftsmanship can't be matched in this domain. Can anybody progress the souls-like genre with a good story, and evolution in the gameplay? I don't see it yet. I think 'Remnant from the Ashes' is the only one that I see that has progressed (unfortunately, not in the story department), or at least branched the souls-like genre with originality in gameplay. It's either they try to be a copycat, but does it wrong or just everything about the experience is badly done. It's probably because developers do not understand why Fromsoft games were so special. They do not know understand the key ingredients.
This is a promising statement. I didn't event expect Lies of P to be as good as it was. Now, this one is good? If so, we are heading into the right direction with Souls-likes.
Lots of souls vets thinks it's good game. I personally don't think the design of the armor/enemies are Fromsoft level, and don't like the look of the design based on the trailers. And the world doesn't look really that great, but maybe it looks better when actually playing it.
I found it in a video from Iron Pineapple (has a series where he plays games on steam tagged "Souls-like"). It's a difficult, 2-d roguelike souls-like with a really cool platforming moving mechanic.
