Overall, the reviews for the game are overwhelmingly positive, with players praising its stunning visuals, engaging combat, and exceptional soundtrack. The story garners mixed reactions, with some finding it predictable or lacking depth, while others appreciate its thematic elements. Critics highlight issues with platforming mechanics and some boss battles, but these do not overshadow the enjoyment derived from the overall experience. The character design, especially of Eve, is noted both positively for its appeal and negatively by those who find it over-segmented. Despite the criticisms, the game is frequently recommended, proving to be an engaging blend of soulslike combat, visual storytelling, and a memorable auditory journey.
