Dinoblade

I'm not gonna say this game is good. There's jank, there's repetitive music, there's basic mobs that I wouldn't even describe as canon fodder, and the voice acting isn't even in the same zip code as decent. But after just that one sentence, I've already done too much thinking. I didn't get this game for polish, for story, for graphics. I didn't get this game to think, or to engage in deep lore or intricate gameplay mechanics. No, none of that. I got it because theres dinosaurs with swords. What other game allows you to play as a spinosaurus with a greatsword that is to it's body almost on par as Gut's greatsword is to his? That's right, none. What other game lets you bust out actual anime style moves as a frickin dinosaur with a frickin greatsword? Not a single one has the cahones. But this game does. That's why i got it, and that's why you should too. No complicated story, no several minute long cutscenes, no endless walking through a massive world. Just a beautiful blend of dinosaurs and swords

The History Channel at 3am:

For almost 21€ the game is not worth. The content that you get for that price is not worth at all. The best part about this game is the boss fight, the walking around on a mostly empty map with random dino doesnt add anything to the game. It should have been a boss rush kind of game without the walking simulator. The graphic are good, animation are good, but DAMN the optimisation is not here. i cant count the number of time my game crashed when using skill making me avoid them completely. Stamina regen is a pain also, you need to stare at the boss for 5 business day before you can attempt something again. TL:DR : not worth 21€

The absolute peak of gaming. What does every grown man love? Not women, not money — I’ll tell you what: swords, dinosaurs, and heavy metal. Testosterone is pouring out by the gallons from this masterpiece. Every studio spending millions on games and advertising should be taking notes from the creators of this game. 10/10. Absolute cinema.

Peak male experiences: 1º. Born. 2º. Discover Metal. 3º. Play Bloodborne. 4º. Play Dinoblade.

I like it cant believe this game spurred from a meme. the music is great

Dinoblade is a testament to the meaning of "Labor of Love". It is amazing, it is a mess, surprisingly detailed, infuriatingly janky, and even while you are constantly struggling with this push and pull of emotions you can't help but to think "Hell Yeah" after every sick dinosaur execution. This is a game that I will readily recommend to those who are experienced with hack n slashers and souls-likes, those who know how to adapt their playstyle to something as inconsistent as this combat system feels at times. The parry windows never seem to line up how you think they would, the camera work during fast boss fights looks like you threw your phone off a cliff mid-recording meaning you can't see anything but your own spinning screen, and Small enemies are very hard to see in general. The playtime (at least in my experience) was also very short. You might think "That is a lot of negatives!" but honestly, given that this is one mans passion project, the game is absolutely stellar and I had a blast playing through it despite my gripes. The Music is top notch. The amount of build variety is very surprising and there was a healthy amount of enemy diversity. I never once felt like the bosses were repetitive, all having their own unique gimmick and design. There is even an attempt at some deep lore, but it goes as deep as you would expect from a game about dinos with swords. All in All great game, just needs some tweaks.
