  • story
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating its interesting plot, engaging quests, and immersive world-building. While some users note that the narrative may not be the primary focus, many find it compelling enough to enhance the overall experience.

  • atmosphere
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is praised for its epic and immersive atmosphere, featuring dark, atmospheric locations and dungeons that evoke a medieval setting. Players appreciate the combination of gloomy yet pleasant music, engaging gameplay, and visually stunning graphics that enhance the overall experience. The post-apocalyptic elements further contribute to its captivating ambiance, making it a standout in terms of atmosphere.

    • “Epic dark world furnished with atmospheric locations and dungeons.”
    • “The atmosphere of the middle ages and such graphics are simply breathtaking.”
    • “Gloomy atmosphere, pleasant music, elaborate and interesting gameplay with a fighting game.”
  • optimization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with players experiencing significant stuttering and performance issues, particularly on lower-end PCs. While some graphical settings can be adjusted to improve performance, such as turning off ambient occlusion to resolve shadow issues, these adjustments often come at the cost of visual fidelity. Overall, while there are some positive aspects to the optimization, many users find the current state unacceptable for a smooth gaming experience.

    • “The optimized motion sensor sees the capture target, and you fight with a sword and a shield. I like these actions in general; the game is good, I'm glad I bought it, and I advise everyone to try it.”
    • “On paper it has the stuff I'm looking for, but to get stumped 1 hour in and my eyes hurting because of how much stuttering happens is just unacceptable.”
    • “This means decreased performance to fix most of the issues. Turning on post-processing fixes most of the volumetric and lighting issues but comes at a huge performance cost, with some remaining issues (transparency/focal plane issues on the 'healing/recharge altars,' for example). Shadow issues seem largely resolved by turning ambient occlusion off - so kudos to the devs for giving us that control.”
    • “- Performance on low-end (VR-ready) PCs.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is highly praised for its quality, contributing to a gloomy atmosphere that enhances the overall experience. Players appreciate the combination of top-notch voice acting and a compelling soundtrack, which complements the engaging gameplay. However, some note that the game is still in early access, suggesting potential improvements in the future.

    • “Music and voice acting are top-notch.”
    • “Gloomy atmosphere, pleasant music, elaborate and interesting gameplay with a fighting game.”
    • “An interesting first-person VR game with captivating graphics and music; the game is still in early access, which means it will become even better.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, players report a generally stable experience with only minor glitches and bugs, particularly with enemies and bosses, which are not game-breaking. This level of stability is considered better than anticipated for an early access title.

    • “Not to mention buggy enemies and bosses.”
    • “I encountered a few glitches, but nothing major or game-stopping; less than expected for an EA game.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the humor in the game significantly enhanced when playing cooperatively with friends, leading to amusing moments and shared laughter. The experience is often described as entertaining and enjoyable, making it a recommended choice for group play.
