I don't know why they build these games without online co-op in 2017 (or 2015, whatever.)

It's fun with some couch co-op but otherwise expect a pretty dry experience.

Been wanting to play this for a while but the art style really throws me off

Like Dark Souls. Soulslike. Us Souls fans.

It's dark souls.... but more salty

I tried it but refunded it. The character art of the main hero just looks bad... also I guess I'm terrible at the game. First boss just reamed me over and over. I suck.

It's fun, game is around 20-ish hours long, nice variety of weapons, enemies, spells, and lots of bosses(though many have pretty uninspired movesets). A nice amount of areas that are all visually distinct. I remember playing it and thinking it was a solid 8.5/10, and would've liked it more but it's extremely easy to get lost and there's no minimap. There's also no online co-op, but if you have any close irl friends, local is a blast.

its ok

Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me. Awful.

2d dark souls. Like platform games? Like dark souls?

If yes to both you'll probably love it.

its mediocre at best. the action seems clunky and the foggy environment looks dull.

Hollow knight is vastly superior.

It's pretty damn great but not without issues with the uneven difficulty of the bosses, that NG+ is absolutely unfun and tedious and that a bunch of creeds come way too late in the game being the ones that bothered me the most.

It's also more Metroidvania than Dark Souls, especially later on when you get all the movement skills.

That guy dies by just tossing three firebombs at his back.

its a mediocre game. its a little bit unforgiving at times. level up system is bad. maps are bad. boss fights vary in quality. weapon variation is poor. art style is piss poor. its good for one play through, better with a partner. beyond that its meh.

I spend 70% of the time grinding for materials.

>weapon variation is poor

Someone didn't find stuff like the whip-swords, scissor-swords and gunblades.

I'm in the middle of it right now. It's pretty fun

>weapon variation is poor.
Nah, go fuck yourself. Its greater than what Dark Souls managed to do.

if you can get stomach through the art style of the characters, its pretty great. has great variation on locations, weapons, and enemy designs, with maps connected to each other in neat ways. only having like 4 songs didnt help, along with half the bosses being not that great, still a great metroidvania, when you get mobility skills. side quests could've been better. gameplay is kinda janky, but not unplayable.

tldr:its pretty good, try it out

it's very good

Very enjoyable metroidvania, lot's to explore and secrets to find. Combat is especially good for this kind of game.

>Combat is especially good for this kind of game

I was extremely surprised by how deep it actually is with quite a lot of stuff like special moves, alternate functions, combos and air juggling.

>you will never play the game with the godawful German translation again

youtube.com/watch?v=R9dSAgCfRmQ

this looks kinda funny, to bad i don't know german

Nearly everything is either untranslated (die Unspeakable Tief), has the wrong meaning (bun was translated not as the hairstyle but as food) or just flat out shit that would make Google Translate blush ("venture forth" becoming "Wagen her" which is just ridiculous and can even misinterpreted as "gimme the car!").

The music is terrible and repetitive.

the gameplay is defiantly better than Hollow Knight
