Actually started playing this for the first time a few days ago! Such a good game, very charming art style, and the mechanics and ideas are amazing. Certainly a game to go into blind, and just enjoy the experience.
I also did not realise it was secretly a soulslike, but it never really felt that punishing (as someone who never got past the first real boss of Elden Ring).
I will say, as I’ve grown older and more jaded, I’ve been finding the GPL more and more appealing…
Edit: Oh wow, why did a year old post show up at the top of “Hot”, sorry about bumping.
