Jotun: Valhalla Edition

首先幽默简中不予置评，建议使用繁中或者直接英文。 这是一个以跑图收集为主，boss战斗为辅的游戏。手绘画风虽然不算华丽但也不失精美，尤其主角的动画相当流畅细腻。 主角身为一位强壮女战士砍天砍地孔武有力所向披靡！几位女巨人BOSS也都勇猛凶悍十分霸气。但是封面图大头为什么不是女主角？ 背景故事中，女主因为能力过人被爹任命为下一任部落首领，她哥因此男疾男户，人菜心眼坏，偷袭弑父，之后女主又正义执行手刃了兄长——这种剧情我只能说太爱看了🤣

Game with beautiful graphics and top view. The soundtrack is also excellent. The gameplay is repetitive but the bosses are downright difficult and if you love a bit of a challenge then this game is for you. Recommended 8/10 my rating

[h1]Visuals aren't everything[/h1] The art is amazing. The soundtrack hits just right. The native Icelandic spoken within the game is such a nice touch. The scenery is beautiful and diverse and my god do they present Norse mythology so well. Not only is the depiction of Jotunns really creative, but it presents the idea of different realms so elegantly. Each Jotunn is tied to their respective realm, and before you get to fight said Jotunn, the game will give you a bit of your character's backstory, whilst briefly describing whichever realm you're currently in. All of this is great, but the game severely lacks when it comes to gameplay. While the exploring and puzzle bits of the game you do before each boss fight are... serviceable at best, the main aspect of the game, that being the bosses, are just not fun to fight for the most part. Some bosses could greatly benefit from the game having a better movement/combat system. The biggest problem with the movement, is that it's unbelievably slow. the combat isn't much different. It's slow and generally unsatisfying. While performing a regular attack, you can't move for about 0.5 seconds and if you charge your attack up, you won't be able to move for a good 2-3 seconds. Neither the movement nor the combat feels fun to engage with. If the game had overall faster movement and a combat system where your movement speed decreases whilst attacking rather than coming to a complete halt, then i'd argue that the game would be infinitely more fun, and could potentially turn my negative review into a positive one. It's such a shame too, because most of the bosses have fun gimmicks and the passion that was put into this game is very evident. But despite that, I just can't recommend this game. The controls make it way too frustrating and in a game that's (for the most part) about killing bosses? That's a pretty big dealbreaker.

very beautiful and easy to understand in terms of gameplay and story 10/10

Minha esposa, Clara, enfrenta o câncer, e eu, um pai cadeirante, tento encontrar pequenas alegrias em nossa rotina. Uma dessas alegrias é jogar videogame com meu filho, Kleber, que adora esses momentos. Recentemente, criamos um soldado neste jogo que se tornou o nosso favorito. Passamos horas configurando o personagem e, juntos, conseguimos subir de nível pulando de várias plataformas. Cada conquista no jogo é uma pequena vitória que nos ajuda a esquecer, mesmo que por um momento, a dura realidade que enfrentamos. Clara, mesmo debilitada, se esforça para participar desses momentos. Essas sessões de jogo, repletas de risos e conexões, nos dão forças para enfrentar o dia a dia, mantendo a esperança viva e o amor entre nós.

A beautiful canvas that’s a chore to play. Not Recommended Jotun: Valhalla Edition is one of the most visually stunning games I have ever seen. The hand-drawn art is breathtaking, the scale of the bosses is awe-inspiring, and the authentic Icelandic voice acting creates an atmosphere that is second to none. Unfortunately, once you stop staring at the scenery and actually start playing, the experience falls apart. The Frustrations: Glacial Pacing: There is no sprint button. You will spend roughly 70% of your time slowly walking across massive, beautiful, and completely empty levels just to find a single power-up or switch. It feels less like an epic journey and more like a tedious commute. Clunky Combat: Your character, Thora, moves like she’s wading through honey. The heavy attack has such a massive wind-up that it’s often unusable, and the dodge lacks the responsiveness needed for a game that demands precision. Difficulty Whiplash: The game alternates between brain-dead simple exploration and punishingly difficult boss fights. The bosses aren't hard because of complex mechanics; they’re hard because they are sponges with massive hitboxes and telegraphed attacks that turn every fight into a repetitive test of patience rather than skill. The "Lost" Factor: The in-game map is intentionally obscure and doesn't show your location. While "immersive" in theory, in practice it just leads to more backtracking through those empty, slow-walking corridors. If you want to appreciate the art, watch a "No Commentary" playthrough on YouTube. As a game, it’s a slog that doesn't respect the player's time.

An interesting way to learn about mythology. 1 hour in and the gameplay is a bit dry though. But it's compensated by very nice music and voice acting. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☑ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☑ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☑ Very good ☐ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☑ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☑ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☑ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☑ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☑ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☑ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☑ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10
