This is a solid Souls like probably closest to Dark Souls 1 in gameplay and overall level philosophy with sets of interconnected levels that are nonetheless fairly linear (apart from the split after chapter 1, you can go to either chapter 2 or 3).
Difficulty

It is a really great QoL change, and I hope more souls-like games will do this!
Story

91 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Though it does have actual story telling much like Lies of P so you can easily follow along.
Graphics

It's great fun and defiantly a worthy souls-like contender, with incredibly beautiful art style.
