I won’t excuse a subpar product but I do feel bad for those devs. It was a really shitty cycle for the people that actually do the work. Just an endless string of baffling decisions from the top.

I'm not gonna lie, I read this and thought "Didn't that game come out like...10 years ago?"

Using the exact same name for a reboot/sequel is absolutely bonkers, especially considering the original was also just okay. I remember it being nothing to write home about, especially with DS2 coming out earlier that year.

I had the same thought! Glad to know I’m not the only one.

I wish I knew one reviews site that I can trust regarding souls like. Not all gaming sites know to really review them. A lot of youtubers love the game (although specifying issues in performance) And from gameplay videos it looks amazing and I have a feeling I'm going to have a blast
