I'm kicking my childhood self for getting filtered by this game back in 2000. This game just oozes charm and is beautiful to look at. The music is insane and top notch. I loved the progression system. Probably one of the top 5 Fromsoft games I have played. The final image you see at the end made me emotional for some reason I can't quite place. I beat the game once and then the next day I was like damn I need to beat this again and get every item so I did.

Excellent game, much better than I expected. Really wish I played this before now, but that's the point of going through our backlogs right?

Atmosphere is top notch, which I expect from From Software. The music was so chill, and often crazy in interesting ways. The weapon/armor/art system was cool, interesting seeing a game like this not involve leveling.

It's definitely an interesting adventure full of way different environments from each other, lot of cool 'puzzles' and a story that had me scratching my head, in a good way.

Hated most of the bosses, and often the gameplay was too simple, even for 2000 era From Software. Nothing debilitating but definitely why I might take a break before trying the sequel.

Worth a look if you enjoy video games.

Its such a strange experiience. Having played PAL 50Hz EU release and now undub NTSC 60Hz makes such a huge difference in experiencing the game itself.
