Eldest Souls

Inputs regularly drop even at stable framerate. Takes three Y presses on a wired controller to interact with an NPC and spamming the dash button just to evade. Not ideal. Will pick up the game again in the future but my first impression is sorry to say the least

it's difficult

I like the bosses and the combat,wish it had more lore to it

ta dificil me gusta

Прикольная игрушка, можно пройти на одном дыхании, увы, меня не хватило, надо было поспать, за 2 часа дошел до ледяного, примерно час из всей игры возился с настройками и занимался своими делами, про настройки, я не смог на джостике настроить RT LT, не знаю, игра в настройках их не видит. Думаю полностью игру можно закрыть со всеми достижениями часов за 7-10, боссы прикольные, пока что для меня самый противный это 2, после волка, возможно потому что он начальный, нужно было привыкнуть к механикам игры, и то что эскейп не работает через врагов, ну и шотят с 2 тычек, не сказал бы что игра прям хардкор, но мне она показалась слегка непростой) умирал я многа, если в нескольких словах: наслаждайтесь игрой, рекомендую

it's definitely a tough game , but the pixel art is amazing. the whole game design from the environment to every boss is brilliant, 9.5/10

It saddens me to leave a bad review for such a beloved genre of games, but I was really expecting a better experience. The pause button does not pause on boss fights, like I can understand the reason behind it but it could be nice to be able to pause if something requires attention, the pause menu covers most of the screen anyways. For example the rejected daughter is completely broken, just play a bit and you will see how weird she behaves, and also after a few deaths the fountains no longer remove the acid patches in the ground making them PERMANENT thru the fight so if it gets close to the center or fountains (that you need to heal the poison) the fight is over lmao. Game feels unfair overall and glitchy, I love souls and boss rush games but this one doesnt have the "Its my fault I died gotta get better" because it felt unpolished to play. You won't feel like you have learned every death, you no longer want to think of the next attempt because you dont feel progress. I would die a lot of times for things that I can't really control about the fight or broken hitboxes or animations, fights seem random and I would be killed most times without making any progress. You will feel every attempt ends at a random boss health bar % because it really is that hard to fight it consistently.

all bosses are easy except the rejected daughter which just turns into a test of how long are you willing to sit on a spike for

Difficult but fun game

Terribly addicting. The only critique I have is the readability. Sometimes during the fights but its worse in the open map. sometimes its looking like a road and sometimes the roads are almost invisible.
