Very good game, replayability sits also quite high. Actually NG+ is faster and more fun than NG, especially steamrolling most bosses except for the final secret and the final true boss fights. One negative is that

It's an awesome game. It's souls-like, but also souls-lite in a way that it doesn't punish you for dying which I like (a lot). It's similar to the Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor and God of War 2018 and Ragnarok
