I  started playing this a couple days ago as someone recommended it as a 
soulslike that had good magic.

I haven't seen any magic yet, but it's not bad so far.  It's futuristic 
with demons, which reminds me a bit of Doom, except it's obviously more 
melee based.  You do get some guns, but you use energy to fire them, 
which is only restored by melee. Apparently magic uses energy too.

Graphics are a little rudimentary and mostly dark gray, I finally just 
found a flashlight which helps.  I like the aesthetic which seems 
somewhat influenced by Alien and maybe Hellraiser.

It's got more platforming than I like, and more puzzles, but then so do 
all the Souls games.

I had to look up some things as I got stuck a couple times, but trying 
to keep it relatively spoiler free.  I managed to kill the first boss 
before I looked up anything at least, first try as well, the second boss 
took me 3 tries.
