Pros
Pro Rewarding exploration
The game world is enormous, with a massive amount of secret areas that really reward you for sniffing them out.
Cons
Con Map system
To get a map, you must find an NPC first for each area you visit. Map updates whenever you find a bench. You also get sent to your last-visited bench when you die. It does not update in real-time, but the map will update with wherever you have been when you find a bench. This is all assuming you have bought the base map from the NPC in that particular area.

Flagged Pros + Cons
Pro The game is quirky in a good way
A not-so-automated map system can, for many, make exploration more exciting and unique, and a lot of people find that a story can often be most engaging when it's something to discover and achieve.
Con Outdated
Unfortunately, developers of the game have mistaken outdated clunkiness for challenging. The few modern touches it has are just clinging desperately to Dark Souls.
Out of Date Pros + Cons
Con Hitboxes can be hard to find
The hitboxes seem to be loose and not always perfectly match what is hit, and some particle effects have hitboxes that are hard to tell where they end.
