Weird hate on for Masculinity. Some parts were clunky and unintuitive. Story was decent, art style was amazing, characters were ok. Could have had a more perilous feeling by adding some risk. It doesn't seem like you can actually die in this game and gathering the basic souls seems like a chore and not fun.
