### Weaknesses

- The current content is very short, and some players feel that progression ends after a single boss
- Slow and stiff movement and animations, along with input-detection issues involving turning and parrying
- An inconvenient keyboard-focused UI, limited key configuration, poor tutorial revisiting, and low skill-tree accessibility
