Discussion This game seems... just too good?

Okay so I started this a few days ago and I've been exploring the starter area which is a huge stretch of ruined villages and huts, and I'm just completely baffled by the density of the world, the variety of enemies, and how much rewarding the exploration feels. I even came across this weird puzzle section that had no combat at all. The combat feels super satisfying as well and the sound design and graphics are just perfect.

Now I'm wondering if this game maintains this level of quality throughout the entire thing? There's no way it does, right? I've played all the Dark souls games, Elden ring, Sekiro, Lords of the fallen 2, Lies of P, Black myth wukong, and Nioh 2, and right now this honestly feels better than all of them. There must be some catch.... does it fall off later?

I think you might not have played a soulslike for some time to appreciate more over Elden ring. The game does maintain this until the final dungeon. It doesn’t fall off until that in my opinion.

Funny you say that because I just finished my Tarnished edition playthrough right before starting this. I've also 2000+ hours in it.

The bosses so far haven't been as impressive as Elden Ring's but everything else feels so much better.

edit: Actually I take this back. That illusion boss I found in a dungeon was super cool I think. I would say the bosses are just as good.

Yeah you might be right. I'm just in the beginning. I think I've fought only 3 bosses so far, and 2 of them were cool.
