So how is the game, I've never really looked at any gameplay or trailers of it.

Is it a action hack and slash type of game or like a Souls game (lite version of it)?

More hack n slash with a slice of Assassins Creed in it (assassination kills, sneaking around) Strong emphasis on parrying and dodging (though on normal difficulty and lower I imagine these are non-issues). 

The general flow of combat and exploration is good, though it's not really a souls-like (or lite). 

I would say that on harder difficults it go more to the "souls" side than Hack and Slash, not because of the mechanics (they really aren't similar) but more that you will want to do 1-1 duels more than be against a mob (because they can truly anihilate you).
