Mix of DMC combat with Final Fantasy like world. Runs great on my PC will all bells and whistles. Having more fun in this one as compared to MGS Delta. Whats your pc configuration? On steam i read reviews saying performance is horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanjosh Posted August 29, 2025 Report Share Posted August 29, 2025 This game has one of the worst names I've ever seen. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante77 Posted August 29, 2025 Report Share Posted August 29, 2025 Started this. So far so good. The only complain I have so far is overall sound. Sword and impact sound effects seem dumbed down, unlike other hack n slash where you feel the sword thrashing. Only at the start. Let's see how it goes. World has Final Fantasy vibes.

Heaven Angel Posted August 29, 2025 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2025 Okay, the combat is the main focus of this game, everything else can be ignored. The combat is actually too good to carry this whole game. Played for almost 5 hours and I say if the game had more time and higher budget it could've been even better. The platforming sections are basic and certainly feels useless at times. I don't why devs thought to dail down the puchy feel in combat, it would've been far better experience.

That's the word I was looking for in my last post. Punchy. Combat is great, so why not make it feel great and back it up with great sound effects.

Don't underestimate it by first few hours of this game. The combat has some real deal. The boss varieties are unique as well. It's refreshing after playing a slo mo game like MGS 3 Delta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dante77 Posted September 1, 2025 Report Share Posted September 1, 2025 I doubt majority of the people who are hating on this game even played this game. They are complaining about the things which don't even exist in the game and have no clue what the game is about. I am enjoying every moment of this game. People are rating for the sale of it. It may end up my overall GOTY this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you can say it, it is kinda like old school but controls are modern and it plays like a PS5 game, no issues with controls or camera or graphics. Now I am pretty sure the reviewers are gonna be swayed by online public review and will try to down-score this game. It is honestly disheartening to see that a beautiful game like this receive unnecessary negative reception. Besides, the game has zero bugs, zero performance issues and looks better than majority of "premium" games out there. Playing on performance mode. It plays like a mix of DMC and Darksiders 1. World and levels are like Final Fantasy 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may end up my overall GOTY this year. I mean the combat is good, the guy certainly have talent for it. But with only 8 mil budget and 10 years of time the game had gone through a lot of issues. They had to scrap their original idea and build from the start after they got some financial help from Sony PlayStation. Yang Bing couldn't find the right or say experienced people for the job. This kind of combat took 6 years of development which should've been done under 2 years. Also because the developers had no experience whatsoever all the other aspects of the game took a big hit. Like Story, characters, graphics, music, camera and protagonist movements and VO. This game could've been really good if there would be right people working behind it. The boss battles were fine but other than that there's nothing in this game. I'm actually glad that you liked it, I hope Yang Bing don't stop here because of low morale and start working on the next single player project. They should release their next game as a AA with lower price point rather than AAA game. Which however was one of the big reasons that pissed many people.

dante77 Posted September 2, 2025 Report Share Posted September 2, 2025 I think the "right" people would have messed it up by making the game more open with less invisible walls, that seems to be one of the main complaints of the game. But while others like openness, I hate it. I want a straightforward level design with enemies slash in style, which is exactly what this game is about. It doesn't even have any side quests, literally no BS, plain old school fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a point there. I am biased towards these kind of hack n slash so my judgment for sure is slightly clouded haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playstationdude Posted November 23, 2025 Report Share Posted November 23, 2025 Played it for 3 hours yesterday. Plays okay, for some reason combat isnt as resppnsive, feels slightly laggy. No punch to combat. Locations look good, but after playing FF16, the combat feels lackluster. I still dont think FF16 is a very good Final fantasy game but it was an excellent hack and slash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
