Just got this game. Probably put 5 hours in.
Please. Someone tell me the combat gets a little tougher at some point.
I’m just spamming square. I could win all these fights with my eyes closed.
I don’t need Elden Ring but this is way too boring.
(Sorry and dialogue both incredible though.)
The game is ridiculously easy if you've played any action game on a higher than average difficulty in the past. There's really only a couple times where you'll struggle with a boss, but that'll mainly be because the game makes you lazy from how easy the combat is (you probably wont go through more than a 3-6 deaths the entire game).
What makes matters worse is there's only two different types of enemies - small ones you can juggle, and big ones that you cant. Otherwise, everything uses almost the same strategy to beat - stagger > DPS > stagger > DPS > rinse & repeat, and the AI is terrible (they just follow you and give obvious indicators when theyre about to attack). You dont need to worry about elemental damage, status ailments, or anything - even dodging comes with a ridiculously large window. People wont admit it but a big reason why people are big on the combat is all of the anime fan service - and if you dont gaf about anime, then it wont matter to you lol.
I gave the game a 8/10 cause of its production values and comprehensive story, but otherwise, it really wasnt a memorable experience at all and I wouldve been fine if I never played it. Even people saying the side quests are good are full of shyt lol - just because theres an emotional pay off, doesnt mean the actual gameplay was good, every side quest is just go here and fight this enemy / waves of enemies (and its always just a reskin of like 5-6 different enemy types).
