It's good apart from some bad designs
First off, the things this game does well is in story telling and the characters(if you look at the game taking place within a couple of nights, rather than a few weeks, so just barely getting to know people) are top notch. Lasting consequenses for what you do, and being locked into it trough the autosave system is top notch. The issues however lies around combat and exploration. You're activly punished for exploring, or attempting boss battles. The combat\exploration phase of this game takes a lot of inspiration from the souls series, so when you die, any and all spent resources will be spent, making an difficult boss fight even more difficult. For those of us that never use consumables unless we can find a steady use of it(in souls-like games) it means we get stuck with never using any consumables at all in this game. This doesn't make the game more or less difficult, it simply means we end up not using a wide variety of tools at our disposal, in fair of it being worthless when\if we die. Exploration is hampered in the same way, certain places you'll meet NPCs that you have to save, if you do not save them before resting(leveling up), they will die. This means if you happend to find an difficult encounter that you just can't solve without resting, then your SOL and that NPC will die. As such, you are activly detered from exploring, unless you have plenty of levels already. Because of the auto save system, which work so well with the consequenses, once an encounter is found, you effectivly can't rest(level up) anymore, at all. Because when you do, that NPC dies, unless you finish that encounter(with your underleved character). It's not impossible to win them mind you, enemies mostly scale in the damage they do than anything else, so perseverence and good doding will save the day, but it feels like a cheap and poorly designed mechanic. Also bullets are rare, yet if you use a gun those bullets are spent if you die, making using a gun the worst choice in the game.
