When it comes to pros, this game is ONE OF A KIND in many ways. It is definitely not another re-skin of dark souls. Pretty much only unchanged thing which feels souls-like is estus and lock on mechanics
- It has perfect choice of color palette.
- It has very elegant simple design (somewhat like absolver but even better imo)
- It implements regular game mechanics like multiplayer or fast travel into the game universe perfectly. (your friend becomes an NPC in game if you are playing with a friend and vice versa)
- It has awe inspiring scenery and perfect enviornment design. High density of new things in areas.
- Very calming music in town that makes you actually feel like you are home (unlike firelink shrine for example)
- Your base develops as you play through the game, giving you an awesome feeling of progress.


There are some cons but they get massively outweighed by the pros.
- combat is not as good as dark souls (which is understandable) with rather limited range of arsenal.
- PC controlls are a bit weird, I had to adjust them.
