Totally agree, it is VERY influenced by the from games but also it’s own thing and has extended the soulsborn/sekiro formula in an interesting way with a unique story. I am about an hour from finishing it and was looking at buying the add on but it’s just a couple of items so no thanks. But I will totally buy the DLC. It’s a fun game and imho the best of the From derivatives by far.

I loved the rest of the books, think it really picked up in the second and third and is great by the current one. I found it laugh out loud funny in places .I would highly recommend you continue with the series as they just get better and better .
