I think I've filled my quote of super-long JRPGs this year. Besides, when I get back to DQXI I want to make sure my plate is clear to really focus on it.
Mummy Demastered is definitely not souls-like. I guess the only slight mechanic that could be seen that way is that if you die you have to kill your former self to get your stuff back, but it's really not that big of a deal. I got stuck in Hollow Knight myself at a very nasty boss fight, and I can promise you that Mummy has nothing as frustrating as that. It's a WayForward jam (Shantae, Double Dragon Neon, that Ducktales Remaster, etc.), and their games prioritize fun over frustration.
