As for staff stances I'm about half way in the game and haven't invested any points in to the other staff stances yet. Are they necessary?

Unlikely to be this year since the game only got released recently. Undoubtedly there will be a sale at Christmas, but probably not enough to knock it down below £30. Best bet at the moment is keeping an eye on the various key sites eg. CDKeys. It's £37.99 at the moment, but the price will go down further if the game goes on sale at Steam.

Smash imo is the best anyway. I briefly played about with thrust to cheese one of the later bosses. With no penalty for respec just fire some sparks into the other stances and go back through an area and see if you like the feel of any of the changes.
I used Thrust like 80% of the time. I never tested it, but the level 3 heavy attacks for Smash and Pillar felt flashy but really slow to come out vs. Thrust's. Plus I never felt a real advantage of being able to charge while moving with Smash, as my go-to combat strategy I settled on was spamming light attacks with non-able spirit mixed in, which built me focus in no time to get the occasional level 3 off in between, so I never needed to stand still to charge anyway.

I never came across any bugs/glitches in my playthrough. Wouldn't let that hold you back from getting it now.Another one on my list of wait 6 months and buy half price with glitches ironed out.

It's mainly a lack of game time and games installed that I need to complete first tbh.
You could call it a bug or maybe an oversight by the devs, but I locked myself out of finishing a quest because I ended up finishing the final boss in that area before going back to the NPC who initiated the quest, and they despawned when I went back to where they were. Very luckily, the PC version of this game automatically has backup saves, so I was able to roll back an hour or so to finish it up, but it was pretty annoying. Apparently there are 2 or 3 other interactions like this that I know of.

Had that in chapter 3 went too far with the story and ended up being locked out of one of the optional boss's. Just had to let it go as wasn't willing to put the time back in to get back to where I was just for an optional boss. A simple if you proceed past this point you will lose access to content would have sufficed.
If you mean chapter 2 and the Yellow Wind Sage/secret area boss, that's intentional. I can think of one other area later in the game where if you do a certain secret area "out of order" it will lock you out of a certain quest/achievement/items. But again, it's not a bug.

Where's the best place to buy this from?

CDKeys?

Just finished this.
Very good game. Not perfect but perfection is hard to quantify.
I'd say the game was excellent. If I had to give a rating it be a generous 9/10.

Was it difficult?

Bought this yesterday and downloaded all day due to rubbish internet. Had a quick play last night and I love this game. Lovely graphics and fun combat. I will try and put some hours in today. Been baby sitting most of today and finally got some peace now.

I would say yes. But you just have to learn the fight and what to do and when to do it.
The last two bosses (secret boss and last boss) I looked at YouTube guides as there where certain key items I didn't have or needed to use.
Also in this game you can respec at any time, so you end up moving points in one thing to another depending on the boss your fighting.
I wouldn't worry about difficulty. Fight the boss enough times to learn the fight and then look at YouTube guides for what key items you need to use and it is very doable.

This is some of the best combat I have ever experienced, at the end now with the official last boss, and am convinced I'll probably replay this because it looks so beautiful..
