Playing through the newest game from Omega Force, Arslan: The Warriors of Legend, I experienced the same feeling as I did watching all of the Deadpool shenanigans Reynolds got up to outside of the movie.

Critic Reviews
Arslan Warriors of Legend PS4 Review
Arslan Warriors of Legend is a car crash that you simply shouldn't even slow down to look at!
40%Arslan: The Warriors of Legend Review
A lot of care and effort has been poured into Arslan: The Warriors of Legend's story mode, but the narrative focus has taken attention away from other aspects of the release. Outside of the plot, things are enjoyable but unspectacular, and by and large, the title feels like the basis for a better sequel. On this occasion, Omega Force's latest is like a commanding officer with no charisma – you can find respect for it, but you wouldn't follow it blindly into battle.

Arslan: Warriors of Legend does a great deal more right than it does wrong, but you would likely already need to be fan of the Koei Warriors games to think so. While the improvements this entry has over typical Warriors games are a big plus and make this title more accessible to players unfamiliar with the content it’s based on, they also shine a brighter light on where the developers are not evenly spreading their attention to detail. The right combination of patches and DLC could possibly make this one of the best Warriors games yet, but the unlikelihood of that happening makes this just another example of action game mediocrity; albeit an exceptional one.
