10/10 Masterpiece... Just play it, buy it, please, for your sake.
-
9.2/10 Perfect balance of Dark Souls inspired elements with confidence in it's own mechanics. It's an incredibly short game but even still, it offers the perfect amount of build variety along with built in challenges like No Shell runs, which means dying in one hit but makes you master the harden ability that makes this game stand out as it's own game with Dark Souls elements.
-
8.9/10 Strong title with inspired Souls elements and heart of Star Wars with story.

8.2/10 This game is pretty much Deck 13 reading it's critiques of "Lords of the Fallen" and improving on them immensely with smoother and faster combat, better story, better build variety and better world design. Although the game as a whole is quite short and in some areas quite obtuse and weirdly difficult, I had a blast playing this and the picking of limbs to attack and detach is a fun way to gain components for gear upgrades and gear itself.
If I have to critique this game, I wish they had more enemy types along with more consistency with the limbs highlighted for ripping off... I don't how many times I thought I was cutting of a certain limb when I end up doing a standard finisher. Hopefully the sequel does better in this regard.

7.6/10 This game is pretty much the "You can copy my test but change it up a bit so it doesn't look like we cheated" of the Soulslike but weirdly enough after about 40 hours of play time, I was still enjoying it, it has it's flaws of "Slow combat", "Not many enemy types" "Sub par story" and "Weird difficulty spikes" but nothing too hard to tackle.

5.9/10 This game gets thrown in as the Anime Soulslike game but my god this game is by far the worst "Soulslike" game I've played so far, with the reputation Lords of the Fallen gets, I was expecting this to be at least competent enough to beat it. I'd honestly say this game is grasping at hairs to be put in the same category of Soulslike.
Combat is clunky, like really clunky and damage output is terrible, if I best an enemy and am able to land more than 3 hits on them I shouldn't have a damage cap like (-439, -401, -31, -18, -18)... Honestly I'd rather not be tickling the boss with my 3rd to 5th attack.
The levels are uninspired and some being ripped right out of Dark Souls with Anor Londo and Quelaags Domain. Every level just feels the same and the areas just feel like they were smacked together with one moment being in snow the next being in sand.
The story is so meh and your party being called names like Jack and Louis really takes you out of the world as you don't expect many or if any anime like characters to have such western names.
I'll add more here later but honestly out of my 30 hours playthrough, only like 2-4 those hours were fun and thats counting the 30minutes I took to customize my character.
