i respect this game a lot. incredible art and atmosphere. they were going for a vibe and they nail it. the world is sorrowful and filled with sin and guilt. it's like hollow knight but all the bugs are replaced with european catholics.

but the gameplay just wasn't for me. the movement wasn't interesting and the combat was very bland. mechanics seem obtuse just because "lol dark souls did it" and i was constantly feeling like i was missing something major. felt like i was just mashing attack and then hitting dodge to mash it on the other side.

i might go back to it. but i don't know. i spent a lot of time with it and never got grabbed. might just check out a longplay to see the visuals towards the end.
