      Tbh, this is the first non-From soulslike I have been interested in.

There are so many FromSoft soulslikes there really isn’t much room for games that try to emulate it too closely, imo.

      YouTuber IronPineapple played this in his Soulslike series and was impressed by it. With games like Tunic seeing success I think there is a market for this sort of thing.
