I just want to say that "Feel" fits this game so well. That song is so good

This was the biggest surprise of the year, for me.  Never did I think I would’ve loved this game as much as I did.  Great music, gameplay and story.  This immersion is what I look for when playing a game!  Well done review!

14:40 You got your wish granted! You can change the difficulty now

this was my first souls-like game experience and I absolutely love everything about this game

I'd love if they made more based on fairytales/adjacent that are in the public domain, Alice in Wonderland would be so cool as a Soulslike

Edit: just watched the post credit scene!

I just beat this game tonight, and all i have to say is i never expected myself to be so moved and invested by my characters growth and others characters i influenced, i went into the game knowing id like it but mainly just wanted to fight bosses, ive always been a combat person never really cared to hard to figure a story out but this one was just perfection. The soundtracks in the hud aswell... beautiful

Your review gives me so much confidence to play. My aunt got the game for me because of how much I loved the premise of the story and gameplay, even though I don't do very well on games like Dark Souls and hearing it from the perspective of someone who doesn't fancy overly-difficult bosses either makes me happy to see someone play this and review it. I'm still going to try my hand at it because I do want to play since the characters, story and gameplay looks great 😤😤

The best heartpounding boss fights ever. Im on my 6th playthrough and they still make my heart skip a beat. Every. Damn. Time. The combat, the story, the art and visuals. Just an absolute Masterpiece.

Rosa Isabelle ave is my favorite chapter of the game (the opera house is seriously amazing), and like you I loved that they included the French version of “Fascination.” So much so that I learned the lyrics (French is my 4th language). This game is truly exquisite.

I've been waiting for this! Maybe, you could also do a more lore centered video on Lies of P? (spoilers welcomed)
It's also cool that you brought up Bishock! I thought of it, too.

Love the vid - I hope you are looking forward to their next D game/DLC/story (avoiding spoilers)!! 🎉

Your analysis of this game was spot on (I was equally moved during the White Lady fight when "Fascination" played) and I share your appreciation of it! Vastly exceeded my expectations. Love this game.

For games like these, the difficulty only enhances the experience. Because everything is so well thought out, lovingly made, and just gorgeous to look at/listen to/interact with, repeating something ovee and over and over becomes less tedious.

Not everyone can get away with this, and frankly I didnt think anyone besides From Soft can actually pull it off.

No it's not because it's hard and we're masochists, its because it's so good it's well worth it.

That's a great souls game, it won't be easy, but it will be worth it!

Thanks for covering this masterpiece

I loved this, only played the demo so far but had so much fun with that. And yes that aesthetic was so beautiful and macabre. I can’t wait to get into the whole game😁

I also used that mod when I played! 😂 I enjoy feeling a sense of progression when playing a game, and I enjoy a challenge, but when I hit a brick wall, I get frustrated like you do. And, honestly, I don't play these types of games for the combat nor do I want to "git gud." I play them for the adventure, and to escape into another world for a few hours. I got the good ending and I was surprised at how moving it was. And the "stinger" at the end—I'm excited for their next game!

I love this game. It is one of my all time favorites now. I'm on my 4th play through and am still loving every minute of it.

You should definitely keep using your voice for whatever else you do. You have a very pleasant tone.

Its a great time to be a soulslike fan!

I also love the reference to the anime Ergo proxy

Great video I've been hearing about this game. Looks interesting. The aesthetic gives me Bioshock vibes at times for some reason. Very relaxing and insightful video Kite.😊
