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.
