I wanted to let a positive mid review, but this evenning I can't, there is so much to say that have been said already.
This evenning this game just punished me for playing the quests. I've done them because game won't let me explore zones I want.
I did the quest to the center of the map, where your car just get destroyed while driving a parkour to light up gates, while lore going on, but you get back to the garage, your car is completely out and you don't have sufficient materials to repair.
Why I get punished on forced lore ?? What's the point, this game already sucks your time when you look for ressources.. Painful.

Might try again later, but for now, I'm out.

Clearly the cozyest game of the Neofest 2025. The base is pretty solid for this first public version as a demo.

I still have to understand how the score works with the rating, and how I can do perfect on every jump.
But the artistic direction, the music AND the adrenaline : BANGER.

So much good ideas, nice puns and jokes (even in the translation) and pretty good visuals.
Need some fixes and optimisation but I'm having a blast !

Typical Landfall joke game that is really fun.
Not for long plays but can enhance a gaming evenning with online friends.

An insane addition to Elden Ring, wich was already a piece of art. If you want to spit blood while seeing beautiful things, you're in the right place ! For 40$ today you can have two skin on a service game. But here you have every skin, weapons, accessories and countless areas to visit. That's so damn rare in the game industry.

To know before buying :

• DLC is a bit harder than the base game, prepare to get roasted at your arrival (use the new items it provides to level up).
  
• 3 base game bosses needed to be defeated to get access to the Shadow Realms (dlc world)
  
• You may miss a lot of content like in the base game 70-80% of the game can be skipped if you're not the kind of explorer.

Negative :

• Narative is a bit broke. Miquella is the center of the marketing campaign but it's clearly the weakest lore impact while we learn so much more about Marika's past. Because of this the end of the game is a bit anticlimatic.
  
• Lack of clarity (or a better way to do it) about the new leveling system, wich caused a lot of issues and bad rep about the game being too hard.
  
• Lack of cinematics : don't hype up to perfom the action of going to the DLC, there's nothing just a TP.
  It could've been a way to introduce scadutree fragments (used to level up) and also better than pop-up messages when certain major event happened. Joke spoiler : Like lmao, Miquella sending "guys look i'm hang off myself bye" while you fight or spam for an item on the ground is a NO-NO.. Even for some bosses or situations it could've been sweet.
  
• Irregularities on the level design : some areas got more love than others by designers. It feels a lot like Fromsoft got bigger ideas than the time they got to do them.
  
• Some bosses does have too much visual and sound effect. It even masks some insane musics.
  
• Torrent : deserved more love. Lore is still absent and he's still too weak to fight with, there is some tests here and there but that's sad it haven't got more work in..
  
• Photo mode someday Fromsoft ? (Otis_Inf Photo Mod does exists)

Positive :

• Everything is beautiful, the world, the bosses, the new ennemies, the areas. A true work of art.
  
• The lore going insane on the past

A masterpiece. No need a remake, already beautiful.

I'm so sorry for this remake. I wanted to get all the achievements, find all the new secrets.. But the artistic direction and the visuals are broken..

My very first Souls Experience. Had a blast !
I'm slow, 226 hours of gameplay and I'm still not in NG+.
So much to see, loot, discover.
