Kings of Lorn: The Fall of Ebris

I just finished the game and it is great. It definitely feels like a first-person Dark Souls. If you've ever played the old King's Field games then this is very much like it. I enjoyed the desolate, hellish atmosphere. What surprised me most is the small team that created this game. According to the credits, it was literally a handful of people. If they can create a game of this quality with only 5 people, I can only imagine the quality games they will produce if they get a bigger budget.

had this game on my wish list for years they revamped the name and lore somewhat but overall looked great after being released and reading reviews i decided to wait on buying. almost a year later i buy it on sale and the combat is sooo lack luster and in the first 30 mins of gameplay had to restart 3 times do to character getting stuck on nothing. overall a very huge disappointment from what seemed like a good game rip.

I recommend this game only to those who are really starved of first-person fantasy games. It has some very good parts to it. It has good atmosphere. There is nice visual variety between levels. Some of the designs are quite creative. But it is a slog of a game. The beginning is very difficult, but eventually you are given ranged weapons which makes the game trivial if you decide to use them. The tutorial really shows everything the game has to offer. Find keys, pull levers, get to a boss. Most of the bosses become common enemies you face shortly after, so none of them are memorable. Most of the game is linear, but then padded out with maze-like levels with very similar looking hallways. I don't know if the developer was trying to make the game seem longer than it is, but it made the experience worse, not better, and really hurt my lasting impression of the game. The linear levels play much better. I did finish the game, which is rare for me, so there is something here that's quite good. It took two lengthy sessions to complete. It has charm. I'm curious what the developers will make next.

These indie slavic companies always manage to trick me to buy some good fps game. Felt like a hexen clone after the trailer, but turns out its trying to be a next level souls game. After the incredibly metal intro you get to wonder around in a pitch freakin black room for 15 minutes. After getting bored, i gave up and started to watch a youtuber play the first level cause i must be the moron obviously. Well the youtuber was wondering around for 40 minutes then got to the next level which was pretty much the same looking boring "everything is black and the visibility is zero" kind of map. You get to punch slow and sluggish enemies with slow and sluggish movement. The fps never goes beyond 100fps even in a little room. The whole thing feels like a chor, and its a damn shame to let the models going to rot in a game like this. Why the hell is it so hard to just put a torch on the wall, and give the damn player a sword? Why do you hate people so much? Im glad mom and dad loved it, but why didnt you get real testers?

A game with so much potential and yet it plays like it is still in very early access with many bugs including a crash on exit where i have to reboot my computer because i cant get to the task control screen. Level design is very limited with each level looking the same and what there is to enjoy visually is hidden in the too dark setting. I checked to see if i could turn up the brightness in the options but no such setting existed. Exploring feels like a chore once again because of the dark and the fact that when i die i go back to the very beginning with no way to save anywhere i want. Plenty of dead ends as well when exploring areas as i ask myself why did they have me go all the way down this deep pit for nothing. Going up and down ladders is clumsy and unpolished as my character had no way to get off the ladder as he would walk a certain point up invisible stairs only to walk by down. When exiting the game i also cannot save so that means having to repeat the whole level again if i need to leave the game for real world activities. Asking $54.99 for this is pretty ridiculous considering how little there is in the game and the early access feel of the entire product. Definitely don't buy this game. Way too buggy and hardly any content.

This is absolute crap. There's nothing good about this game other than its visuals and you can't even enjoy that part because of the horrible torch mechanics. Do not buy this game.

Не знаю, игру хвалить абсолютно не возможно. Начну с того, что у меня проблем с работоспособностью игры не обнаружено. Она работает стабильно. Проблемы следующие, и перед тем как вы купите игру, я советую вам почитать. Если вас это не отпугнет - то можете смело покупать. 1 - Самое важное - Управление. Оно уничтожило просто все в этой игре. Все очень топорно, если вы в спринте, то не сможете быстро присесть. Управление по подъему на лестнице, просто отвратительное. нельзя запрыгнуть на лестницу. надо обязательно подойти к ней сработает триггер и вы можете начать подниматься. Откаты ударов длятся примерно по секунде, когда ваши враги атакуют почти без остановки. И сколько бы вы не закликивали мышку быстрее они от этого работать не будут. Я выключил игру и больше не собираюсь играть. На youtube столько хороших туториалов, что бы написать качественное управление на движке Unreal, и как всегда находятся самописцы.. 2 - Проблема с настройками гаммы, слетают после загрузки чекпоинта. Постоянно приходилось выкручивать. 3 - Анимации противников и их поведение. Во-первых - Анимации невыразительные, вы почти никогда не будете понимать, начал ли атаковать вас противник или нет. Более того, они даже не всегда реагируют на ваши удары. Как будто бы и не было их. И если уж они начинают атаковать, то с вашими откатами ударов, скорее всего вы помрете, если на вас нападет 3-4 противника одновременно. Если вдруг начнете играть, то когда повстречаете первого паука, поймете о чем я. 4 - все очень медленное. Заставки медленные, некоторые вообще пропустить нельзя. Движения игрока такие же медленные. Когда подбираешь предмет он секунд 10 смотрит на предмет. В заключение - сама история и атмосфера мне понравились, хотелось получше погрузиться в эту игру. Но буду честен - продукт очень сырой. Все перечисленные недостатки очень сильно портят впечатление от игры. Первая игра, за которую я буду просить деньги назад. Так как она даже не в Early Access.

[h1]Materiał [b]wideo[/b] (a w nim 🎁 [b]konkurs[/b] i kopia tejże wyjątkowej gry do wygrania): https://youtu.be/GSTZKjCi_RM[/h1] Gdybym miał w skrócie opisać [i]Kings of Lorn[/i], powiedziałbym, że jest to niezależny Dark Souls, który spodoba się fanom fantasy fpsów. [h1]Czemu [i]Królowie Lorn[/i] zasługują na pozytywną recenzję?[/h1] - [b]Ładna grafika[/b], której styl sprawia, że twórcom uchodzą na sucho kiepskie tekstury. Ogólne odczucie audiowizualne robi wrażenie; - [b]Świetne cut-scenki[/b], których praca kamery ewidentnie reżyserowana była przez kogoś, kto ma oko do takich rzeczy; - [b]Zróżnicowany świat[/b] i ubaw z eksploracji; - [b]Satysfakcjonująca walka[/b] i mnóstwo ciekawych broni, z których będziemy mieli korzystać wedle własnego uznania; - [b]Przezabawne easter eggi[/b], które przyjdzie nam znaleźć na większości poziomów, jeśli oddamy się dokładnemu przeszukiwaniu zakamarków. [h1]Co z kolei w grze kompletnie [b]nie trybi?[/b][/h1] - Z początku [b]mnóstwo błędów[/b], które jednak są solidnie i systematycznie naprawiane, więc nam nimi bym się szczególnie nie rozwodził. Brakuje mi tu jednak więcej satysfakcjonujących mechanik, bo jednak samo bieganie jest miejscami nużące; - [b]Blokowanie[/b] jest bezużyteczne i w chwili, gdy nauczymy się już "dashować" używając przycisku CTRL, ani razu nie użyjemy blokowania; - [b]Brak potężniejszej i bardziej wyrazistej ścieżki dźwiękowej[/b], a w takim mrocznym tytule fantasy grałaby ona pierwsze skrzypce, budując ciężki klimat; - [b]Beznadziejny voice-acting[/b], który niszczy immersję na tle fantastycznie reżyserowanych miejscami cut-scenek. - [b]Brak polskiej wersji językowej[/b], bo choć fabułą do najbardziej zagmatwanych nie należy, to zawsze uznam to za minus gry. Wszak daliśmy światu mnóstwo wyjątkowych tytułów i uważam, że polski, tak jak i wiele innych języków, na obecność w grze zasługuje, zwłaszcza, że... - ...[b]Cena[/b] nie jest uzasadniona. Tak jest to wyjątkowo dobrze zrobiony niezależny tytuł, ale przez cały czas gry czuć od niego indykiem. 80-90zł to cena, która powinna być stosowna w tym wypadku, gdy mówimy o stuprocentowej wartości, nie o przecenach.

This game tempted me a lot cause i love nothing more than a good dark fantasy game where you basically kill everything that you meet while exploring the lore of this world. So it saddens me that this won't be a positive review. I've started on hard mode (King) and while i don't even mind that I'm pretty much dead after 2 hits that blocking is kinda useless or I always have to go to the main menu to continue the game after I die there's one thing that just really bugs me. The combat is sooo ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring really. All I do is hit the enemy every 2 seconds and then dodge back and I wont get hit. If the enemy can block I just slash his feet. And that's it. It isn't really hard or anything it's just boring af. I kinda feel like im missing something or I'm fighting wrong somehow and don't get it and it just makes me angry. Combat and all the enemies feel so clunky and slow. I mean wtf you have LITERALLY ONE ATTACK AND ALL WEAPONS HAVE THE SAME SPEED EVEN. I don't know maybe it gets somehow better when I progress more I really hope so.
