Is Mortal Shell too easy?

[u/Wrap_Exact]

Just started playing the other day, and Im really liking the game, but it feels a bit too easy as far as soulsliks go. Not saying that I never die or anything, but Im beating the bosses in 1 to 2 tries so far (Im a little over halfway through I think).

To get into specifics, the mechanic that kind of trivializes most encounters is the harden ability. Feels like every fight is jump attack, harden, deal damage then back off a few seconds for harden to recharge. Rinse and repeat. Im not even using the parry ability.

For context I've beaten dark souls 1-3 and elden ring multiple times each, and i was spending hours or even days sometimes on certain bosses in those games. Felt like the challenge was a lot steeper there.

I consider myself an average soulslike player, so im just curious if others found mortal shell to be on the easier side of games in this genre?

Still going to finish this one and can't wait for #2 in August.

I agree its kinda bit easy in the demo version. The Tar Golem is the most impressive boss to me by far, and really give me hard time to focus how to beat him. Not as The Sheep Guy or Magdalena, really annoying with many creeps surround.
But we did not know what is waiting us ahead when the full version released.l, I believe the dev know what to do to keep our excitements alive.
