Hellblade was gifted to me by the legends on this forum, and I started playing it some weeks ago.
Sadly, I’ve never played Dark Souls. My understanding is that combat in 'Souls is difficult.
Hellblade’s fights can be hard and in the first few hours of playing there have been some cool puzzles. It’s probably more “Souls lite”.

Hellblade is not a Soulslike game at all. Not in the least. It is an action adventure game at heart, there are no stats to level or weapons to collect. It focuses on mental illness and the game uses binaural audio to highlight this so it is 100% recommended that you play with headphones (so you can hear all the voices talking in Senua’s head as intended). Hellblade’s combat is nothing like a soulslike either and the game has a lot of environmental puzzles to solve.

If Senua wins it will be the third time I’m restarting the game. It has weird performance issues on AMD cards where the game doesn’t properly utilise the GPU so you get far less frames than you should. There are ways of fixing it with launch options but with the Windows Game Pass version adding launch options is an additional challenge because of the way they handle the file system etc.
I then downloaded it on the Xbox One and that worked fine - once I got used to playing with 30 FPS. My sub to XGP at the time ran up then so that’s I had to stop.
Let’s hope 3rd time is the charm.

Yes it was.
Once you play the Dark Souls games and they click then other games will seem lame compared to them. They are amazing. But very difficult to get into.
Also on the topic of Hellblade. It’s amazing. I loved it. I won’t play it again but would recommend other people play it. The sequel is coming so now’s a great time to play the first game.

When I first played Dark Souls, I couldn’t get into it. And then we had our first MyGame (now called Game Club) and then it finally clicked. Maybe one day I’ll play all 3 again.
