The lighting for interiors in particular caught me off guard, often bringing to the fore that burnt umber, oil-painted hue that I thought had been all but lost with The Order: 1886 (RIP).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Something I will mention is that the game is a good entry point for souls genre, because there is a difficulty slider.
