Great! Definitely recommend the game! Game of the year 2025? May be.

Souls games became popular reasonably.

The combat system is well designed

Exploring the mechanics of the game one by one, I had the same feeling: oh, this is competent. The whole game feels competently solid

Хейт в сторону Близов оправдан, но сама игра хорошая.

I can recommend the game just to familiarise with interesting setting (white clean minimalist city, which consists mostly of skyscrapers), good style and graphics (the skyline and buildings by themselves often look great) and satisfying first person parkour gameplay. Everything else in this game is just bad, not mediocre, bad. The story, which is an important part of the game, is dumb, I was laughing out loud after the final scene; combat is VERY annoying: the enemies spawn everywhere, security cameras are everywhere, enemies chase for so long, fighting enemies is dead boring, there isn't even a block ability. After completing the story I wanted to play for a little longer: complete side missions etc., but enemies simply didn't let me do this: I wanted to explore a beautiful area, they started chasing me, I wanted to collect something, they started chasing me and so on. Such aggressive enemies are OK for games with good combat system, which is not the case here.
The game were good if:
1) The story didn't make me laugh due to stupidity;
2) The combat system was bearable;
3) It was possible to explore the world without immediately being chased.
But currently the game is just a perfect representation of what a 6,5/10 game looks like.

The game is challenging, it forces the player to learn its mechanics: either you learn how to play or you will not progress further. The style is amazing, all bosses are unique and interesting, great bosses! Bosses from Sekiro feel slow and forgiving in comparison to the ones from this game. There are many bosses who create some kind of bullet hell, but the character is very responsive and the bullet hell itself is always programmed wisely, so that there are no inescapable situations. 100 % of deaths in this game are due to skill issue. The only weird thing was the controls on PC keyboard, the standard ones were in my opinion just unplayable, but it's possible to reassign them. I definitely recommend this game.

Breathtaking visuals and style, Dr. Darling's videos are 10/10. The story is ok, from time to time it brings something curious. The gameplay is boring: the game has no difficulty setting and it is very easy, parkour challenges don't exist because Jesse is able to fly, enemies miss 75 % of shots and hardly ever manage to pathfind to the player, I literally had to search for them by myself, enemies spawn randomly and very gradually, so that there is no strategy in terms of player's positioning (it doesn't matter where the player is, enemies will spawn around the player in every case), just shoot, thinking here is unnecessary. Shooting also feels strange because weapons have almost no recoil. My review is positive due to visuals, style and Dr. Darling's videos. Dr. Darling's videos are remarkable.

Iconic.

The first part was great, this one is even better
