This game is awesome! I've never played any of the souls games, but I have always wanted to and this is just great! Once you get the hang of it, and understand the mechanics, its very fun! Though, I would suggest maybe adding some text as a tutorial in the first boss fight, maybe above the player's head to guide newcomers, because when I first started playing I didn't realize swinging took stamina so I would get frustrated thinking that the game wasnt registering my swing inputs after I had been dodging a lot. Also, I love the graphics on this, very nice!
