Lords Of The Fallen™ 2014

Lords of the Fallen (2014) is a clunky but earnest Souls-like that prioritizes slow, heavy combat over the fluid agility of its inspirations. The weighty armor and deliberate stamina management create a unique rhythm, but inconsistent hitboxes and repetitive enemy design often frustrate rather than challenge. Its grim fantasy world lacks the memorable lore or environmental storytelling to truly captivate, feeling more like a checklist of genre tropes. Ultimately, it's a decent time-killer for Souls veterans starving for content, but a rough relic that newer games have since outclassed.

Highly recommended despite these negative reviews this game really worth it - Value: Excellent - Visuals & graphics: Good - Performance: Stable - GamePlay: Good ( Specially, if you're a fan of heavy weapons you gonna enjoy this game more ) Finally, I'd like to say that this game worth trying out don't judge it just by negative reviews try it yourself

Lords of the Fallen (2014) may not be perfect, but it’s far better than the “Mixed” reviews suggest. The game plays surprisingly well even today, with beautiful visuals, smooth combat, and no major bugs throughout. Movement feels sluggish at first, but once you manage equipment weight and get lighter gear, it becomes satisfying. The early game can feel punishing due to tough checkpoints and frequent deaths, but good armor and weapons appear quickly—making you feel powerful soon after. It’s a medium-difficulty experience that takes around 15–20 hours to complete, making it great for newcomers to the Souls-like genre. At 95% off (around $1), this game is a hidden gem for low-spec PC players who want to experience dark fantasy combat without frustration. The only real wish? A map system—because getting lost is part of the horror. Overall Score: 7.5/10

I think people underrate this game expecting a Dark Souls copy, being one of the first soulsLIKE, keep in mind Dark Souls 2 came out 5 months before this game. I think this game focuses on the use of slow heavy weapons, kinda like going full Havel from the start of the game, there is no roll spam, there's no summons, there are not that many fast weapons, there's only 1 (ONE) respec in the entire game. There are some cheap tactics the AI uses, some attacks are unbelievable fast and combo you, tower shield block 100% of your damage and some range attacks that are hard to dodge. But if you focus on your build and get good weapons, you can do A LOT of damage, at the end of the game, with one spell and one double handed weapon I was doing 1.3k damage to the final boss. That was almost HALF his health bar. I think the biggest downside of the game is the camera, It shakes all the time, and the lock-on is useless when there's more than 1 enemy coming at you, most of the time you are targeting something that is not in front of you. Other than that is not the awful game everyone makes it to be... You are not getting filtered by this game are you?

It is not that bad when you get to it. I feel like people expected another Dark Souls copy and treated this one too harshly. It is fun and worth the money when on a sale.

Lords Of The Fallen z 2014 roku niestety kompletnie mnie nie przekonał. Widać tutaj inspirację serią Dark Souls, ale sama walka jest zdecydowanie zbyt ociężała i toporna, żeby dawała mi podobną satysfakcję. Gra potrafi być wymagająca, ale często bardziej przez swoje mechaniki niż faktycznie dobrze zaprojektowany poziom trudności. Do tego dochodzi przeciętna eksploracja i rozgrywka, która dość szybko zaczęła mnie męczyć. Pomysł miał potencjał, ale wykonanie zdecydowanie nie dla mnie. Są znacznie lepsze soulslike'i. Nie polecam.

This is more of a neutral review. All throughout playing the game, I kept wavering between thinking this game was garbage and thinking I kind of like this game. This game is a buggy mess with some poor design choices and lack of enemy variety where you feel like you are playing in mud, but it does scratch a certain souls itch. There are honestly so many noticeable flaws to the game, and it is vastly inferior to the Dark Souls trilogy. However, there were still redeemable parts to the game that made me think "oh hey this ain't too bad". For one, most bosses fights were interesting. As someone who has played through the Souls/Elden Ring games, I'd say most of the bosses actually leaned to the easier side, but they had cool designs and attacks to learn (except the twins and the final boss, which were both absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ terribly designed battles of attrition). The environment was also pretty cool to travel around in, esp when some areas linked back up. But it really seemed like every good thing would just get offset by a bad thing, such as my screen shaking like crazy for no reason at all, fighting a heavy armored enemy for the 1 millionth time, or getting shot through the wall. Honestly, I would not recommend this game to anyone aside from hardcore souls fans looking to scratch an itch. This game is just not a good starting place for anyone who isn't familiar with the genre. However, if you are a souls player that is looking for a game to pass the time between the next Fromsoft game, this could be for you.
