Lords of the wannabe

It's simply not possible to not make a Dark Souls comparison here. The developers wanted that comparison with what they call more "accessibility". Instead, in my humble opinion, what they created was contrived, small and easy. Too easy. There leaves little want to explore in this game. The repetitious environments leave us starved for any change of scenery. Jump attack, swing and they all go down. Bosses can be easily dispatched with the "rage" option and some rapid swinging. The enemies are all basically the same with small variations in move sets and each has a small move set themselves making it incredibly easy to memorize how they react. This game simply needed some serious fine tuning. More time spent on developing the world, enemies and bosses. Its doesn't even feel cheap. It just feels easy. If you are a DS player, you will ind this game utterly and ridiculously no challenge at all. If you are new to this type of game, stop what you are doing and go get the cheaper, DS 1 and play a real game.
