The souls-like aspects are good, and the game is definitely hard, which will lengthen your playtime a lot.

Either the dev team ran out of time, or they thought: "We have to downgrade the graphics for Quest 2 anyway, so why bother?" The first part of the game looks much better than most of the rest.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
