Well, Mortal Shell is indeed love letter to the Dark Souls franchise. It does a quite few things different (in a good way), but it is not as technically polished as Dark Souls 3 nor the Elden Ring. Rght know I am testing my luck in The Virtuous Cycle (DLC) – rouglike playthrough through the levels with different enemy placement and perks, which are collected along the way. It's an interesting experience and it spices the main game a bit! Honestly, there could be greater enemies diversity and could be more technically polished (input responsivnes feels wierd from time to time). But it is definitely great "souls-like" game, which does not copy from From Software's formula, but only takes some inspiration. I would recomend Mortal Shell to anyone, who has some experience with so called "souls-like" games, but I think that it is not the best entry title to play in this genre
