This game was basically an attempt from BANDAI NAMCO to play around the idea of traditional DARK SOULS series that we know and put bunch of twist in it to make the game much more versatile and suited with the playstyle of every and each players. I have to say it is a complete success as I enjoyed every single hours that I already poured into this game.

Some of the added twist are such as:
You're able to change your character class ("code" as we called it in this game) throughout the game without without having any obligations to stick only into one, as well as having an AI partner fighting alongside you which makes the adventure in this game feel a little bit fun.

The storyline overall is fine. I mean it's nowhere near as good as NieR: Automata but it feels like you're watching this big budget anime series which is enjoyable enough for me at the very least


i suggest you get this game if you're new to the souls like genre and have no idea where to start. Having an AI partner fighting with you make this game a little bit more bearable and not that suffocating for casual player that are less familiar with this genre.

If you're familiar with DARK SOULS series, than please remember that this game is not like DARK SOULS as we know. There's a reason why BANDAI NAMCO make an entire new series with a completely different title. It's similar in some sorts of way but I say almost 80% of the game (gameplay mechanics, etc) are very much different. So make sure to keep that in mind.
