Very hard game to rate - My second playthrough was far more enjoyable than my first after knowing what to expect but the blatant flaws were still present. I never got to play the original version and from what I hear, it's the far better version and a shame that it's no longer readily available. There is still a lot of enjoyment to be had from the game and it's definitely still a must for fans of the other Soulsborne games, but this enjoyment is surrounded by inevitable frustration. Whether it be in terms of level design, bosses, or visuals, the game consistently suffers from valuing quantity over quality.
