This is the MOST overrated game I have played on the Switch! I played a lot of games and poured hours into this one. I don't believe the critics or users because there are several major issues I have with this game.. I have cleared Bloodborne, Dark Souls, Salt and Sanctuary and lots of other hard games.. The difficulty isn't the problem I have with this game, but the entire gameplay itself. I feel like this is work and NOT enjoyment.
1) Gameplay - The little coins you pick up is sparse but more importantly you have to purchase everything, Map, other BS tedious stuff. Purchasing items becomes strange.. Its as though I have to purchase everything and work.. Its seems more like a chore than a game! Score 2
2) Controls - complete BS - the Power shoot button is the same thing for healing! WTF! So i have accidentally hit the power shot button but wanted to heal - leaving it to be wasteful!*The jump is completely BS - I die more times sliding off the edge than I do with regular enemies. Someone said the controls are tight?? They are ABSOLUTELY NOT! When you jump the jump feels like there is an invisible wall and not a normal jump arc.. Score 3
3)Graphics - People said visuals are great.. They are OK - they made it sound like this artwork is absolutely amazing.. The colors are nice but the actual artwork is ehhh.. Its basic stuff - 6
4) Level designs are completely horrible. Some kid developed these level designs since they are NOT FLUID! Its gets tiresome and exhausting! I have to backtrack over and over trying to figure out where I can and can not go.. I spend countless hours trying to figure out oh can I get through here or not? Score 2
5) Music and sound effects - 5. Its ok but this doesn't compete to Salt and Sanctuary..
Overall, I paid and very disappointed in how I feel I was misled on this game. People said this is challenging.. I don't find it that bad.. What's bad is the level design, controls, and gameplay. The tedious management of changing out your pins for special abilities only at the REST stop is annoying. This game seems like the developer was trying to make you WORK for it rather than enjoy the overall game. If I feel like am playing a game that requires me to do WORK its no longer a game.. Its a chore.. I love a great challenge and the bosses have been fun but that's about it!
