Death of a Wish

The art style, combat design, and music work together to insure the player can feel the emotions of each scene. Combat itself is great (though I had to take a break for a bit after getting too dash-happy so my fingers could recover), and I enjoy the mixing and matching of weapons and equipment to try and personalize the experience to your own play style as much as possible. The story deals with powerful emotions and complex topics in an excellent manner, and made me think deeply about what I really knew about each character. I hope to see more of this world (and excellent combat system) in the future, and considering the interesting changes between this and Lucah, I'm certain whatever could come of it would be just as good as this one at blending the mechanics and the story in the perfect way to get the themes across from whatever p.o.v. character they could choose.

Assim como seu antecessor, Death of a Wish é uma obra de arte pouco apreciada, principalmente por brasileiros, quase não acho conteúdo desse jogo, mas fica ai minha recomendação, Death of a Wish é uma obra de arte sensacional que aprimora todas as mecânicas apresentadas em Lucah: Born of A Dream e adiciona muitas coisas novas seja em gameplay ou seja em história, as animações são simplesmente sensacionais e a trilha sonora é maravilhosa, não sei mais o que dizer sobre está obra prima.

I played this forever ago but I'm coming back to leave a review because it deserves it. Death Of A Wish took everything good about Lucah Born Of A Dream and improved on it. I like how they handled the Aria system especially since you can switch attacks on the fly. Just like Lucah this is a really dark but interesting world and story that can get pretty heavy. But it adds some weight to everything that's happening. Some fights and enemies can be challenging but I feel like you have the tools you need to win. It's just a matter of execution. Gameplay wise I don't have many complaints about this at all, they nailed this formula. The art direction of this game isn't like much else I've played but I love it. The only draw backs to the art is that during fights that are a little more crowded you might have a moment where you lose yourself on screen. Also I wasn't a fan of the map. Albeit the map matches the art style of the game, I wish it was a bit easier to read or just had clear markers so I knew where I was supposed to be going. It wasn't a game breaker but it was an issue for me later in the game. Outside of those minor issues though this was great. Lucah and Death Of A Wish are true gems in the indie gaming space that need way more love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wDnODdQm10

I always forget to do a review for this game, but I have been shilling it since release, so I figured I would now. I pretty much just want to say thank you to Melessthan3. This game and Lucah were so good. The customization of the combat in this game was so beautiful. Man, we need more games that play like this. - Parrying and then doing a big bang when broken NEVER got old. Not to mention swapping mid combo. - The S Rank incentive (and that beautiful sound) the soulslike tension that comes from trying to make it through a dozen difficult encounters without taking damage, so you can survive when it matters most and keep corruption low for the whole game (legitimately redoing half the game after I knew how to get to the ends of the chapters so I could end them all with no more than 1 fight loss per chapter) - The familiar mixing to make my break per second and single shot damage so satisfyingly high, and the stance switching in mid combo that brought some Character action energy into the game if you really were trying to stunt. - The characters were more fleshed out and strongly developed, and the presentation of the game really allowed your imagination to do things with the world you explored that I never would've expected. I was always invested in what came next There's so much. M<3, I love your work. This is an S-Tier game to me. Thank you, and please keep making games like this.

This game is pretty cool. The art style suits the hard-hitting combat very well.

unique and memorable game

I was expecting a great thing given how well designed was the previous entry on the series and I was not dissappointed, frenetic action and a lot of lore. I liked it a lot!!

play first game next death of a wish fast pack action hack and slash it have soul tell story i do like art style somethings different i do joy the game both of them

Um jogo de ação muito divertido focado em reações rápidas e combos. Gostei muito que ele permite personalizar os estilos de ataque e misturar dois estilos diferentes, formando mais outros dois estilos. Inicialmente, pensei que não iria gostar dos gráficos olhando as imagens na loja da steam, mas eles são estranhamente charmosos. Apesar de ser um protagonista que passa grande parte da história calado e com poucas palavras, Christian é cheio de personalidade e claramente sente bastante culpa pelas suas ações. Achei bem interessante que as ações dele não são sem consequências e trazem problemas severos para quem se alia a ele. Após zerar a primeira vez, ele abre modos customizados e modos de desafios, além de dificuldades maiores.

I loved Lucah: Born of a Dream, and this is a more than worthy successor! I look forward to anything else this team makes in the future :D
