Played it through on the SD when it released last year, took me 32 hours. Now I’m 8 hours into my second run and it’s as fun as the first time. Perfect Steam Deck game.

    Actually started playing this for the first time a few days ago! Such a good game, very charming art style, and the mechanics and ideas are amazing. Certainly a game to go into blind, and just enjoy the experience.

    I also did not realise it was secretly a soulslike, but it never really felt that punishing (as someone who never got past the first real boss of Elden Ring).

      Good to hear that, it was definitely a bit more frustrating when it came out, more “soulslike” :)

        Oh, did they make it easier in a patch sometime after release?

          I don’t think so, now it just doesn’t feel as frustrating as I remember it. Possibly they polished the really rough parts, like the first boss.

      You’re in for quite a few treats!

      Personally, I thought I was almost half way through the game about 4 times, then the world opens you’re eyes to something else
