A Disappointing Attempt at the Soulslike Genre

At first glance, this game looks stunning, with an absolutely gorgeous art style that immediately grabs your attention. However, after spending some time with it, I’m left deeply disappointed.

The game seems to take all the frustrating elements of the Soulslike genre and amplifies them while failing to deliver polished gameplay. It feels more like an expensive experiment than a fully-realized AAA title. Despite the price tag aiming for AAA status, the gameplay often resembles that of an indie game.

Animations are inconsistent; attacks sometimes pass through characters or even through blocks, leaving you questioning whether damage was taken or if the block was successful. The dodge mechanic feels unreliable most of the time, leading to moments of frustration rather than excitement.

Initially, the gameplay showed promise—it was fun and engaging. But as you progress, the experience becomes a tedious grind. Boss fights turn into endless attempts to make progress, only to find yourself stuck again at the next challenging encounter.

This lack of polish makes it hard to justify the investment. I don’t mind difficult games, but this feels more like a poorly executed challenge than a rewarding experience. For fans of hardcore games or those who enjoy watching streamers struggle for hours, this might be worth considering.

As for me, I’ll probably end up watching YouTube streams, skipping the hours of repetitive boss fights. It’s a shame because the game had potential. Even if I were to purchase it down the line at a 90% discount, I doubt I’d make it halfway through.

In comparison, I bought Wukong and found it challenging but still enjoyable because it brought fresh ideas to the genre. This game, however, falls short in many areas. I had high hopes and even moments of amazement early on, but those were quickly overshadowed by the issues mentioned above.

To sum up:

Pros: Incredible art style and initial excitement.
Cons: Poorly executed mechanics, inconsistent animations, unreliable dodge, and frustrating progression.
I really wanted to enjoy this game, but it’s hard to recommend it in its current state.

Let me share my experience. At first, everything seems fine: you enter the castle, reach the boss... and get stuck. From that point on, the entire game revolves around trying to beat him. That’s it. There’s nothing else to do. You can’t grind to get stronger; you only have one skill point, and all you can do is switch between three abilities. It’s just not fun.

How did this game get 8/10 or 9/10 ratings? Seriously, who gave those scores? Did they even get further than I did? A mystery.

Visually, the game looks good. The gameplay is decent too. However, if you’re part of the less than 1% of players who can actually finish it—congratulations! Maybe you can tell me what’s behind the second boss.

The controllers didn’t work properly. I wasted half an hour switching controllers and restarting the game because the keyboard stopped working whenever a controller was unplugged. On Xbox and PS5 controllers, you can’t attack at all – you can only walk around, and that’s it.

The lighting in the game isn’t ideal and could potentially cause headaches.

I got stuck in minions with no way to escape or move them. While this might not be an issue for most players, this "mechanic" was frustrating enough to make me quit the first game. Encountering the same problem again led me to request a refund immediately.

I wish the best for the game and hope others have reported these issues to the developers. Hopefully, they’ll make the necessary adjustments. For now, I’ll wait for the full release before giving it another try.

EA recently made some changes, and now I can’t access my account. Even if you launch a game through Steam, you’re still required to log in to your EA account to play. But here’s the issue: even with the correct email and password, I still can’t log in because EA updated their Terms of Service. Now, it seems like none of it matters...

To make things worse, I can’t access my email because of government-related issues (long story, but it’s a Ukraine thing). It took me 3-5 months to resolve a similar issue with Uplay support, and I’m not willing to go through that nightmare again. At least Ubisoft provides a way to access games without online features, but EA just blocks you entirely—even for games you’ve already purchased and played.

The only workaround I found was through Xbox PC Game Pass: I downloaded a different game, and somehow, it let me launch my EA game using the Microsoft account linked to Game Pass. But honestly, this whole situation has made me lose all interest in EA. There are plenty of great games outside their ecosystem, so no thanks—I’m done with EA for good.

They manage to make it even better in case of a game play.

The concept of the game is great, but it needs significant optimization and a lot of work. In its current state, it doesn't even reach the level of early access and looks more like an early demo version.

Shared/Split Screen Co-op: Not available
Remote Play Together: Not working
I bought this game specifically to play with a friend, so I do not recommend it for this purpose.

Good game

I believe that there might be a bug in the game that prevents progression beyond the very beginning of the storyline. Additionally, the situation could be worsened by poor design and ineffective communication between the player and the required actions. In any case, the first three minutes of the game are futile, as the remaining 14 minutes are spent in a frenzy of attempting to click on something, open things, or apply actions, all in vain. This is disheartening and, at the same time, it's regrettable that the time spent is wasted.
