The harden mechanic added a new layer to combat
it introduces a new class-like system to the general with the different shells
and the bosses are well designed.

Can feel unnecessarily cryptic
the camera and terrain would often cheat us out of victory
and battles against Harden felt repetitive.

Platinum trophy requires two No Damage runs (one without ever bonding with a shell and another for abandoning it for the final fight)
Empowered ripostes and rare mushrooms only way to heal damage sustained between checkpoints
Incredibly short for a Soulslike
Hidden lore scrawlings take a lot of blindly attacking walls to uncover
Green and blue haze hides the finer details to Fallgrim

Decent enemy variety
Decent enemy variety
Certain design choices make absolutely no sense
Between repeated use of healing items and powerful mechanics, difficulty really isn't there
Various mechanics are not really balanced
Insane margin of error makes the desire to improve moot
Most problems can be solved by either rolling past of chipping away at their health
Tedious mechanics make even new items annoying
Bland world that looks largely the same
Only four main bosses
Very limited weapon and character variety
Lack of RPG mechanics really hinders the depth

The idea of the shells is really good, even if their usage could be improved.
The game still looks fantastic, regardless of how bleak the areas are.
The familiarity system with the items is a very neat concept.

Almost everything pertaining to the combat feels like a chore.
Most weapons don't feel worth using, in virtue of just being way too slow to be reliable.
