Gameplay

This is a pretty fun mechanic that adds an interesting twist on the standard souls-like formula.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
19 of 43 sampled reviews raised it
The game currently in its early access state has a good battle system that feels satisfying and a clear direction, so I think now it mainly needs to refine some aspects of the gameplay so that it feels less repetitive, and also to add more variety in a form of enemies, weapons, things to do in dungeons, and environments.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 43 sampled reviews raised it

The graphics are absolutely stunning, with a dark and jagged design that perfectly captures the feeling of being on a real battlefield.

6 of 43 sampled reviews raised it
Split screen is usually a challenge nowadays in computer games, but during gameplay it didn't present any inconvenience to me.
