    been waiting for this video, love to hear Prods thoughts on the game. I went radiance through this game and I gotta say, it slaps. I did a paladin idea at first and then I found the ravager great sword... and I became Ungabunga paladin and just charge attacked my way through soooo much of the game, it was a blast. However, my favorite spell would have to b e the thunder spell that rains down lightning on enemies, if only because it was just so useful and you can layer it till there are like 50 lightning bolts chunking down everythings health, and the tracking is pretty good as long as they aren't running. Honestly, I loved this game too, it was a blast, for me it's a 7.5 or 8 out of ten game that seems to be only getting better honestly.

    I love that game. For picking your ending, I'd suggest to do the Adyr one on your first playthrough if you want to keep increasing your NG on each playthrough, from NG+3 vestiges are all gone except Skyrest and shrine of Adyr so running back to all the beacons without the vestiges would be boring AF. You should do all NPC quests with this ending as well (except Iron Wayfarer, do his quest when you want to get the umbral ending). With the normal ending you just activate the beacons as you go, it's simple. For the umbral ending you can just skip bosses as you don't need to clear the boss guarding each beacons, so you can fully skip the Fief of Winter’s Chill Curse area with the crow boss, there's no point going there except for talking to the Iron Wayfarer in the umbral, and he is not far off in the area. You can fully skip the Tower of penance as well (but you can get the rune tablet for Gerlinde so before killing her, have Sparky teach you how to upgrade stuff. You can get a Deralium chunk and Rebirth Chrysalis like on the first level of the tower as well so I do get them on each playthrough, it's super quick if you know what to do). You can do the Abbey of Hallowed Sisters 'till you kill the boss for the Mark of Adyr then you don't need to clear the rest, no need to get to the Empyrean.

    I really loved the game. And I agree with almost all of your points - with my two biggest cons being a) The radiant ending boss was super underwhelming and made beating the game not really feel like an achievement and b) I felt like a couple of the bosses were a little too easy (Though with that said, as of writing this they just updated the game to make the bosses more difficult - so I shall be trying those on my next playthrough)

    Yeah the normal final boss is pretty much just Deacons of the Deep 2.0, it kinda feels like they wanted to replicate Doom Eternal's final boss with a huge enemy but since it's an action RPG not an FPS we can't really attack something that's like 100m tall. Elianne should be the default final boss. The Sundered Monarch was also comically easy after Judge Cleric. She is by far the best boss in this game IMO.

For the most part, you can re-activate bonfires/graces/lanterns/etc. and warp to them once you do on the Souls series. In this game, you are forced to use vestige seedlings in places where there used to be vestiges during New Game+. Not to mention you can only every carry a max of 5 vestige seedlings. Then once you plant a new one, bid goodbye yo the previous one, there's no warping back there other than sprinting all the way from Skyrest Bridge. TLDR - The great majority of Vestiges are replaced with seedbeds. You can't re-activate them on NG+

    I enjoyed the game and still enjoying it. Got umbral ending first time around thanks to some mostly spoiler free tips and it had a pretty good final boss for that route. Devs keep updating the game weekly atm and have a good content roadmap that'll cover the next couple months+ currently. I hope the best for them because I want to enjoy this game more online with friends and invasions but that still needs a lot of work as well as performance improvements to FPS and other stability issues. I'd say currently the game sits at around a 7 out of 10 for me, not great but I do really enjoy it.

    Solid 7/10, really cool atmosphere and honestly very fun gameplay. It mostly suffers due to ganks and laggy online. I really liked how viable every build was, as well as a "make your own combo" approach and how you can parry or dodge whichever you prefer. It's definitely a shame how most weapons didn't have different movesets, hopefully a dlc or sequel can mix em up. I also loved the horror vibe from the game.

Walking through amazing scenery and landscape for an exciting adventure. Enduring long, tough journey. Building camp when tired, rest comfortably by a bonfire. Fight deadly enemies and challenge iconic and intimating boss with friends. This could be a new path of souls genre aside from the death, harsh and unfair centered souls series.

Dev's were generous on boss enemies: 37 possible Boss fights while maybe more diverse world enemies'd be nice.Early gameplay started rough but solid patches. Tired of waiting 4 storage box or sort options. Platinum was a brutal grind: 344 Armor pieces, 217 weapons, 65 trophies & quests that are really easy to miss but overall I'd probably give it a 7.5 to 8/10. Magic is solid, melee is great (move sets R limited); characters R interesting. Invasions R fair. I personally had a bit of network issue & those long range damage issues were patched but overall I was happy when invaded. Really solidly legit souls game. Loved respect for Patches, Onion Bro, Mimic's, etc.

Instead, you fight all the same guys then a boss battle just to realize that now that boss is the common enemy in the next area but they’re such a pain in the ass to fight that you just run past them And I’ve found out that most of the game can just be run past until you get to the next boss area and that’s really the only progression there seems to be I just wish there were more variety in the common enemies

    My biggest pro would be the visual design and my biggest con the music. I always crank up the music in souls games to feel the epicness while fighting but in this one it didn’t too anything for me. Mostly felt way too quiet, out of place or the rhythm/tone wasn’t matching with what is happening at the moment. There were some expectations like judge cleric or the monarch but overall the OST didn’t impress me at all. Overall pretty nice game tho.

    They are working on decreasing the spawn rates in umbral, but its meant to be a risk reward. You get a vigor multiplier, but more enemies spawn overtime. That way you have an option to get easy vigor for upgrading or purchasing items without having to suffer on a boss fight for a while

    This actually reminds me of Dead Cell's final difficulty which spawns more enemies everywhere the longer you spend on a level. This makes the route focus more on speed-running a level (or finding vendors which reduce your current gauge). But it's kinda counter-intuitive to exploring the level and looking around for suitable weapons and abillities, since it's a Roguelike and all.

    I agree with everything but 1 thing. 1 mimics are amazing I love them. I laugh every time I fall for it even though I know the tell. Because it's entirely my own fault. I love that they move locations it's a wonderful mechanic. Also i do think enemy density is a bit high but only in late game areas. I think all the mobs or enemy's are well made except for the flying moth lady's. They are way too tanky and need an HP nerf. Well into the end game at full build it's still hard to delete them.

On the other hand, it looks like it's better to wait for all the issues everyone's complaining about to get fixed. So I'm glad we got to see your perspective since, unlike lots of this game's reviewers, you're actually a souls veteran- so you can tell us what's genuinely BS or not. Convinced me to give it a try.

    They need a souls-like game with Angels and Demons. Kind of like Dante’s Inferno. But with a Dark, Gothic style. Not too Fantasy styled like these games. Kind of want it on the vibes of that movie Legion and the movie Priest. And access to Hell, Earth, and Heaven. I’m no game developer so I hope I inspire one of you out there to make that a thing.

What both games prove though is that From Software are still untouchable at this style of game. Oh I'd give L.o.P. a solid 8.5

  • @mokadelic4037
    @mokadelic40376 ай бұрын

    My main advices for an hypothetic sequel: - Attack animations need to be more diverse and realistic, especially dual wielding and two handed, and have more weight to them, and especially not propel your character 800 meters forward when you attack. This for both the player AND the enemies; - Umbral and Axiom need to be two actually separated worlds: Axiom should have its own enemies and environmental puzzles that should be unique to Axiom, and they should disappear once you go in Umbral, and vice versa, because right now there isn't much to do in Axiom, and you're rewarded for playing exclusively in Umbral. This also makes Umbral asphixiating because on top of Umbral enemies, there is also the regular Axiom ones. This needs to change. Also, instead of having so much useless normal enemies, Umbral could receive DarkSouls-like player invasions, making it even more difficult but also more engaging and fun; - Normal enemies get way too beefy and spongy in late game, making it boring to fight them, and players mostly run past them. Enemy health pools should be static, instead there should be more enemy variety. This means making more enemies that aren't dogs/crossbowmen reskins. Bonus tip: the game looks gorgeous, but it doesn't need that much particle effects to look good. Those just make performance unnecessary worse ;) Bonus tip 2: please work on your character creator, it's unnecessarily complicated and most of all, uneffective. Characters faces and bodies look HIDEOUS. Other than that, I have very few complains for this game. It's the best soulslike I have played this year, and I enjoyed it a lot.
