My first feedback

Optimize

  • When Selecting whisper - be able to leave by walking away (when intending only to activate but not to teleport), i.e. no need to press Esc to continue moving away

  • add button for “not jumping / stay on edge” - I mostly run around (I assume most do). I use LMB to run (run to mouse setting) and it is mega frustrating when I accidentally jump from the edge - especially on narrow platforms. I believe this is a bit necessary option to auto-jumping approach in this game

  • do not interrupt movement/run when the character is near mouse on screen - due to camera movement “lag”, when I click char moves to the mouse pointer and stops moving, then camera moves, so mouse pointer is further away and character starts moving again. Unless this is some kind of intentional feature, then it sucks.

  • visuals for parry timing - I understand that hard-core souls players do not need it, but for me this is the first souls-like game and it is very hard to time the parry. I just need some “training wheels” for some time to learn how to get it right… something like “easier mode”… whatever that will help me learn the timing.

How I would approach it - make this an option in game setting (i.e. “difficulty” setting) and if player uses this option then the loot from defeated monster is less valuable.

Bug

  • custom keyboard layout not available properly after loading game - I have to select layout profile (M+KB scheme), leave settings back game, back to settings and even then some buttons have to be rebinded i.e. running

I like this as well. Sometimes you just want to anchor yourself to a wisp that you’ve already unlocked.
