DarkBob SoulsPants did not disappoint (too much) Bad: Some frame rate issues. (think code vein chugging between each zone here) Not enough enemy variety for some. Floaty platforming can be mid. A few samey/lamey boss designs A few questionable level designs (let's NOT pay homage to the WORST areas in souls games. Maybe imitate the BEST parts????) No resolve by closing time. Good: Solid humor/characters throughout. Fantastic attention to detail. Mostly fanboy inducing references to games and shows related to this project/dev. Shell system is a revelation for humor and function. Solid combat for a short experience. Trophies/achievements are fun to collect/finish. Mostly great art, voice acting, pacing, writing. Mostly fantastic level design. Fun rollout for skills/upgrades throughout. Overall it tried some new stuff and stuck to the mechanical basics enough each to make a fun, bright, and accessible souls like that, above all, is FUN to play. Hardcore souls gitgud dorks beware. This isn't a serious or deep mechanical game. It was never trying to be. It's fun.
