I want to say a 7/10 is a good score, but the way this industry scores things, it's actually kind of poor.

Basically falls into the, "good enough to rent, I guess" category.

I'm not sure I would agree with that i like Stellar Blade but I personally like the combat in Automata more....way more.


But thats just me.

Nah, Stellar Blade combat is better..... way better.

Agree to disagree, personally I like Automata's combat way more.

I don't agree to that. I demand you admit that I am right.

Just watched Ziostorms review of it. Pretty good stuff and I'm looking forward to it.

Pros: Combat mechanics, level design, most bosses are fun, game is faster paced, transmog, mostly gorgeous, lots of off-the-beaten-path kind of stuff
Cons: Blurriness occasionally (PS5 DoF weirdness?), lack of weapon quantity, some bosses aren't great, frequency of traps

7.5/10

I only listened to a bit for one particular comment I heard about which is about the world having some Dark Souls 1 levels of interconnectivity and secrets. World exploration has always been my favorite aspect of Souls and -likes.

I skimmed some reviews that were bringing down the average. Too hard and/or the character lacking personality. Two things I couldn't care less about. Then you have the ones bitching about the hot protag and the costumes. Lol

2 games personally to me can't get old. CAN NOT EVER

DS1 and DS2. Haven't dove into DS3 much admittedly. So can't judge. But my GOD is DS1 goated. I can Just boot it up for 45 min and have a blast.

Ds3 is freakin amazing too

The later bosses need rebalancing to allow more opportunities to attack but other than that it sounds like a good game. Being able to respec your skills at any time gives you full freedom to experiment which might counter some of the frustrating difficulty in the game.

Going by reviews it's a super generic soulslike with severe performance issues on top. 4/10 is the absolute ceiling for a game like this. Good enough for gamepass I guess
