What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets!
SotN sucked me in very quickly. Initially I was unsure of the slightly clunky controls, and the game hits you with imo the hardest boss very early which was a frustrating experience. But once my goal changed from simply trying to progress to exploring every unexplored path, the game became extremely fun and fulfilling. I’ve yet to fully complete this game on the truest ending, but I had a great time playing through the majority of it.

Very late to this game and was always slightly intimidated by the difficulty. But man what a game, it needs not be said that the visuals are top tier, the creativity of the bosses is incredible, but the stand out for me was that the gameplay was tight as hell. No filler whatsoever. I haven’t felt such a feeling of triumph since beating the radiance in hollow knight.
Will play the dlc another day, perhaps tomorrow.

This was my introduction to Fromsoft and I have struggled to enjoy anything not produced by them since. A truly unique gaming experience I'm not sure I'll ever have again. Coming up against walls of difficulty and thinking 'ok I think this is my limit' and then getting that one magic attempt that ends up successful honestly made me reconsider what it is I really enjoy in video games. Other than gameplay the dark fantasy setting is incredibly beautiful and harrowing, the obscure storytelling is fascinating and there are just so many memorable moments burned into my brain. I've played this game through 8 times now.
