I love the atmosphere this game has, and the graphics, soundtrack and voices are all really well done. I've played a dozen hours of the demo.
Combat has a lot of satisfying moments, but some things are frustrating:
- Execution can kill enemies instantly if done from behind, or after a Dash or Tendril Yank. It's annoying that downed enemies are only vulnerable to instant kills from behind.
- Overhead Smash often misses enemies at very close range, so it's difficult to finish off enemies with it. It doesn't feel very useful in the demo.
- Halberdiers attack very quickly so it is difficult to interrupt them.
- Gothic Knights: I'm playing on 16:10 and it's really easy to walk into their attacks when they're offscreen. I really hope Hellfire can stun them in the future.
