Combat no fun, game a combat focused game, game no fun. I honestly can’t tell if it’s me or the game lagging, played on ps5 so who knows lol it runs like garbage. I think if I played on PC it might be a different experience, but it just feels so clunky and basically the equivalent of expected to win a F1 race with a 2008 Subaru forester. Imagine a racing game and the brake and throttle are delayed and you just keep crashing into the wall. I love souls-like and gow style games, but I play to fight the bosses, not the controls. Maybe there’s a chance I’m just bad, and if that’s the case then it’s a fine game, but when a enemy is charging at me and I press circle and I just simply don’t dodge, I’m talking no previous animation or spell being cast, just standing there, then bam full health drops to 20%, camera freaks tf out so I can’t see anything, start spam dodging buh who knows if that’s even working, and I’m dead. I’m at scorpion lord or whatever his name is and atp I just don’t want to play anymore. Why can I upgrade only the base drink and gourd, why does my starter attack sum times dash to the enemy and sum times just doesn’t at the same exact distance, why when I use immobilize do I have to wait 5 seconds to drink. Why tf am I a whole ass mythical monkey that has less agility than a 4th grade chess club enthusiast. I really wanted to like this game and there are these glimpses where it works and it works well, and I never want to be a guy that leaves a bad review just because of difficulty, but this games difficult for all the wrong reasons. Maybe PC would be different but I paid $60 on PlayStation, and its $60 wasted. 1 star.
