Legendary Tales

Not meant for Single Player enjoyment. Got through the whole game on my own, got through the DLC to the last boss, and here's the problems I came across. 1. Maps are LITTERED with enemies that are hard to sneak past. I mean 5+ enemies in rooms in hallways, every single place they are jammed with enemies. You have to aggro one at a time, which makes the pace of the game a slog and boring. Fighting 2/3+ enemies at a time is janky and not worth it. You could run past them, but that just feels dumb and awful game design. Feels like it was designed for multiplayers to go through and attack, so as a single player it just feels awful. 2. Bosses are VERY unbalanced. They deal tons of damage to you, have thousands of HP that you chip away at and just don't feel designed for one person to deal with them. I'm sure if you had another person to attack while you aggro them, they'd be pretty fun to deal with. As they are now, every boss fight made me want to give up with how unfun they were and how fast you die to them. 3. Dungeons are long, repeating corridors that aren't interesting. It's just doors behind doors behind hallways behind doors, with rooms full of enemies behind each one. Always happy to be out of one before being shoved right back in to the next. probably about 90% of the game is dungeons. I wish they had more variety to them other than different door and wall textures. DLC added some cool places, but they got old really fast. 4. No Guaranteed Healing! In games like these, you usually have some form of a reusable potion you keep, or maybe even a healing spell to get? NOPE! There is no SELF HEALING spell, you can put points into slowly regaining health (up to a max 3 every 3 seconds, WOW) but that's it. There are potions, but you can only MAKE them from items found in pots/barrels, and they are NOT common. I don't understand why the devs don't give you an option to buy potions?? Too many times I've used them all up on a boss, died anyways, and have to grind out more crystals to make potions with! Give us a store to BUY THEM. 5. Enemy variety is awful. Most enemies are just skeletons, goblins and demons. You don't even see the Goblins past a certain point, and demons are in the final area, so really you'll be dealing with mostly skeletons. There's some flying mobs here and there, and DLC actually added 2 new main enemy varieties, wow! I guess quantity over quality right. Overall, there's a ton I love I about this game. Weapon handling is the best I've ever felt, ESPECIALLY with 2 handed weapons. Adjusting where you hold and switch is so nice, they got it right with that. Having a total of 11 Quick Slots in crazy cool (4 on left/right quick select, 2 on hips and 1 on back) I love carrying around all kinds of weapon types and not just sticking to one. Lots of else to love about the game, I just wish when you play it on single player mode, the game catered to a single player mode and not a world that makes you feel like a chump for going it alone. I don't know, maybe play it on easy to counteract it? I was on Normal and can't change, oh well.

Legendary Tales shares the same fate as Grimlord. Both had grand ambitions that fell far short of being fulfilled, because such massive game concepts simply cannot be handled by individuals or small indie teams. It was a well-intentioned attempt.

The performance of this game continues to drop over every concurrent update, the game used to run wonderfully before the massive rework, now the refresh rate is locked to 30hz for your character's hands and weapons, making the visuals very disorienting. It is even worse with the DLC "Update". If you are playing on VIVE pro 2 headset DO NOT GET THIS GAME. The resolution is not correctly set, and visible black bars sit in the center of your vision always, which makes the game impossible to play without noticing. It is incredibly sad, this game used to be my favorite in my library.

Диабло в виаре. Немного костыльно и сыро, однако погружению это не мешает. Боевка на уровне блейд ен сорсери. Враги плотные и их много. Думаю на часов 50+ залипнуть можно. Есть ещё длс, которая вышла не так давно.

DLC販売したのでレビューします　此方、ベータの時からプレイしています。 VRハクスラとしてトレハンは楽しめる…のですが ボス戦が高難度と理不尽を履き違えたクソゲーです。DLC追加ボス２体、共にゾンビアタック不可で糞行動大量の糞ボスです。時間をかけ撃破こそしましたが本当に楽しくなかったです。 このDLCが発売してすぐ、ゲーム制作者はすぐに突破できる人間が現れると思っていなかったようで… まさかのボス強化+プレイヤー側に弱体化調整が入りました（最高レアリティ装備やスキルの数値低下など） 日本人のゲーマーなら聞いたことのあるであろう迷言「簡単にクリアされたら悔しいじゃないですか」を地でやってのけました。 某fpsハクスラ３の発売当初と同じ流れですね。そちらと同じでクソゲー路線まっしぐらの状態なので買わなくていいです。 バグも致命的なものを実装してくれるのでもはや笑えてきます。ビルドが１つ丸々使い物にならなくなるバグとかね

The weapon inventory implementation is clunky, convoluted, and unintuitive. Having to drop a newly picked up item just to get it back into your backpack is ridiculous. There’s no audio dialog. Zero. You’re expected to read lots of text and the pacing for the text changes is off. Audio effects are poor. To mask this shortcoming you’ll get lots of music that is not inspiring. There appears to be a mismatch between destruction of items and when you actually struck the item. Hitting and breaking items is not satisfying at all the way it should be. When items are destroyed it looks awful and distracting, like the bare minimum effort was put into it. It doesn’t look right. Downed enemies that you’d expect to have physics have none; your weapon will just clip right through them. There is apparently a very complex upgrade/skill tree management system which is never introduced in the 2 hours spent in the tutorial. It looks like something better suited to a flat screen game rather than a smart, engaging implementation for VR. Who wants to spend a lot of time staring at a flat skill tree system trying to figure out where and what to upgrade versus actually having fun gameplay? The fact that it’s not properly introduced within the first 2 hours makes assessing a keep vs refund decision difficult. The art assets and environments don’t look great, they feel samey, and uninspiring. The community photo pics don’t seem to show a lot of variety in art assets. Was hoping the game would grab a hold of me and pull me in, but it feels soulless. Not getting good vibes as a single-player experience. Perhaps it’s more fun co-op, but with that complex upgrade/skill tree system I don’t know. Skyrim VR looks and feels infinitely more fun and engaging than this. The asking price is ridiculous when you consider these factors. It would be easier to rally around this game if it was actually priced appropriately.

weapons are disappearing from my hands. like, poof, and it is gone forever. i lost many weapons like this. it makes the game unplayable.

I've had this game for years. I really wish I could go back to what it was back then, the dungeon crawler aspect was awesome. I thought they were randomly generated but apparently it was just a huge dungeon. That was fun. this dark unseeable 'open world' isn't fun I've tried countless times to play it again, I just can't. it's not good. There is something otherworldly offputting about this game, not in a cool 'dark souls' kind of way but in a "this feels like ♥♥♥♥ in ways i can't describe" kind of way. I wish it was good. it's just not

Zero effort translation, misalligned controller angles, broken height calibration, giant invisible collider on my balls, that gets my hands stuck, broken tutorial, that had me complete it twice, horrible ass UI with no cursor smoothing, 0 multiplayer lobbies even with crossplay enabled. And a cherry on top. Only thing this game could offer is its combat... uhh, you can totally forget about 2H weapons, cause their handling feels like [sample VR game preset handling script], not like playable VR mechanic. And it's just 1 hour of playtime. I could say, that Legendary Tales is just an unpolished indie tech demo of... static enemies damage calculator, but knowing its price, many years of early access, already existing gameplay dlc and another one planned, it's just an effortless broken product, targeted on console players, that are already used to buying overpriced "games".

While I love playing it, issues keep arising with every new "patch". Most recently, on April 3rd, it messed up the online so I couldn't connect to my brother. Today, it fixed that, but now when I get to one of the bosses, it crashes with a fatal error. I really want to play, but until they stop breaking it, I have to set it down and move on to something else. Really frustrated and disappointed. The things I love though are the VR combat (obviously), the crafting, and the unique specialized popular weapons like Guts' greatsword from Berserk, Senbonzakura katana from Bleach, and other cool items. The parrying is also fun, except the blocking with a shield is kinda jank and doesn't feel like it works quite right. Pick up when hopefully fixed, but for now I can't recommend. Edit: WTF is happening?! Now, I have a bug where the item from my right hip and my helmet just randomly get deleted from existence! I've now lost a legendary helmet and 2 legendary daggers, and it autosaves so they are perma gone. If I had dropped it somehow, they would have shown up in the Lost section by the stash (nothing there). I also locked them so they were not sold or broken down. This is genuinely pissing me off. Edit 2: Bug didn't occur last couple times I played where brother was hosting. Hoping either that is a workaround or bug was fixed with an update. To be clear, I love playing this game when it is working as intended. You just never know when something is gonna get messed with.
