This game simultaneously has some of the worst design decisions I've ever seen implemented in a video game while also being on the best I've ever played. Congrats Miyazaki, you've surpassed my expectations once again.

Edit: After sitting down and thinking about it more this game has glaring issues with boss design but it might be due to the fact that I am not looking at it as a work on it's own but with prior experience with the souls franchise. I wished the game was smaller in scope and more refined because while I still recommend it, the game does feel like a parody of a souls game at certain points and it's not great when that happens.
