Have any of you guys played Wuchang yet? How do you like it so far?

I've pretty much dodged everything about the game - story, gameplay, art direction, trailers - so I know barely anything about the game. Some people seem to be praising it quite a bit for its more "classic" soulslike approach and have been comparing it to DS1 even.

How do you like it so far? Is the comparison to DS1 sound?
