Difficulty

How hard is this game - am i likely to get bottle necked by bosses?

i had a 1 hr learning curve at the first boss (fire blade guy) -you get better as you go and skill points for your char. i'd say give it a try not that bad and it's graphically beautiful

Depends on what "hard" means for you personally. Since this game seems to consist mainly of bossfights (I only have completed chapter 1 so far, so that may change), that could happen I guess.
From my point of view it feels like the bossfights are challenging, but compared to Souls/Elden Ring for example I find that I do not need as many tries before I win. I even won some of them on the first try. Then again, I like to play souls titles and thus have some experience in this regard.

It's about as hard as Jedi Survivor and God of War. (although I died like 10 times fighting the big headed blue monk boss).

I skipped that one until I was a bit stronger (and had the first transform from the fire guy in that area)

Once you get to chapter 3, the game takes a steep dive into the difficult region. Enemies become tankier, faster, more elemental attacks and bosses in this chapter are something else. Had a rough fight a bit ago with a completely off the beaten path sub boss that had 2 phases. Adversely, got my keister kicked by 2 very agile standard mobs that worked in tandem to keep me staggered.

I'm stuck at a boss (i don't have my glasses which help to focus and... see well).
Up to that point i steamrolled everything aside from a boss that took me 3 tries.

Any tips on the big pool in chapter 2 ?

How is the difficulty compared to Elden Ring?

There's a boss called non-able, that is harder than anything Elden ring has produced lol. Man he straight unrelenting. The boss before him, called non-white, was so agile and deflecty, he will gatekeep a fair amount of players.

It's definitely not as difficult as any previous Souls games, but its difficulty is higher than many action games, especially starting from chapter 3.

The game is not hard. If you are a casual player you will definitely find some bosses challenging but nothing too crazy

As for tips with the tiger vanguard in the blood pool?

I utilized pillar stance to avoid a fair bit of damage from them. Build your focus and thwap em on the head. Going for the heavy from smash stance was almost a waste of time, as the tiger always jumped out of the way. If you have your transformation, save it for when the tiger goes invis/rock form, because that hit is a LOT of damage if it hits and if it doesn't the tiger follows up with a strong sword slash. Granted, this completely depends on where you decided to invest your points mind you. I tried to get as much focus points as I could as early as I could.

I got stuck on a boss in the 6th chapter aka the grasshopper boss due to a game breaking bug on the pc version. It won't trigger the scene to burn the grasshopper boss and just keeps flinging me into the air on the third jump.

Anything is harder than elden ring. There isn't a single boss in ER that you can't cheese with an OP setup.

You can't do that in Wukong.
