Seriously. These reviewers nit pick over the slightest flaws which wouldn't even matter to an average gamer :\

Yup and what's worse is they completely ignore major faults for some games and give 10s. Most of them are stupid really, they are not like experienced writers whom we see write reviews for books or movies.

They can be compared to Indian newspaper reviewers who write movie reviews :P We know how stupid they are

Bad example. I too gave Enslaved the benefit of the doubt and bought it.

 

 

 

Should have listened to the reviews.

i bought the game when it released on steam, was waiting for the release for a long time, i really liked that game....

What I don't get is. These devs have proven themselves with los1. And from the demo you can easily see combat is much better than the first one.

 

How could they screw up so bad it's getting 4 ?

Another part of the review:

 

 

 

 

But for all its litany of crimes, pacing is the biggest. There might be a half-decent ten-hour game in here somewhere, but instead what we have is stretched beyond breaking point and padded with dreary filler.

 

Halfway through the game, with a mutant infection threatening humanity's existence and a shady group making preparations to summon Satan to conquer the planet, Dracula spends a couple of hours finding Mirror of Fate fragments because the ghost of his dead son says he needs it to play with his toys. This sojourn to the netherworld hosts the nadir of a game with copious low points: another instafail stealth section in which you must evade Agreus, the goat-headed brother of Pan, as you traverse a garden littered with dead leaves that will alert your pursuer if you step on them. If he catches you, his whirlwind attack sends you back to the start. It's tortuous stuff, but the biggest insult is that you fight him immediately afterwards and it's a cakewalk.

 

They also cite problems with the combat system:

 

- attacks feel weightless

- lack of hit-stun on enemies

- no invincibility frames on dodge move

- wonky camera
