At the end of ch 2 and still cookin. Luckily, I've been playing Sifu for the last week, so my action game dexterity is on point. This game is not near as hard as some make it out to be (so far).
Couple thoughts:
fukk these invisible barriers. Luckily the areas are fairly linear, so it's easy to learn the layout.
Game plays smooth, ran into a couple of issues with slowdown, but it's generally when I reach a new area, so it might be an issue with textures loading for the first time. I play everything on PS5 in performance mode if it's available. So it might be different for the other modes.
Combat opens way up after CH 1. Some of the base skills should be available by default in CH 1 to give it more of a tutorial feel.
Boss designs are up there with any Fromsoft game. Love the variety.
Currently give it a 8.5, we'll see how the rest of this game shakes out.
