I love it now, but Jesus I hated it in the beginning, the world felt overwhelming and I had no idea where to start, usually in fromsoft games you always end up where they intend you to, but knowing you might get to taste the blade everywhere was intense, till I took the first two bosses after that everything snapped into place for me. I have yet to finish the game tho, so far I've only been able to clock in 30 hours, but i have been able to clear out 3 zones completely.
