Lords of the Fallen

Got this game when it was on sale after the 2.0 update and am so happy I did. The game is solid and scratches that Dark Souls itch. The gameplay is challenging but will be familiar for fans of From style games. I appreciate that the difficulty is still engaging, but not frustrating or exhausting. The lamp mechanic used to traverse between the two different realms is unique and leaves a lot of secrets to be discovered. The environments are engrossing and well detailed. The art direction is like a heavy metal album cover. The developers clearly put a lot of polish and hard work into the game. I highly recommend this game if you like Dark Souls or Dark Fantasy RPGs in general. Im very picky with modern games, but this one is checked all the boxes for me. First game in a while where I can’t wait to get off work and play. Read more

This game is a total visual feast with an intense, immersive atmosphere. If you’re into Souls-like combat, this is for you. The mechanics are solid, the bosses are epic, and the world design is beautifully brutal. Definitely worth the grind. Read more

I bought this game after all these patches were introduced so I'm not sure how the game was when it was first released but can say in its current state, at least on PS5, the game runs flawlessly and have had 0 crashes in the 100+ hours I've put into it. The graphics are absolutely stunning and the gameplay is addicting, I absolutely love the combat, it's fluid and quick, it feels fleshed out and void of any clunky feeling Souls-like tend to have. There's a million things I can say about this game, it's literally my favorite Souls-like ever created, infact I enjoy it just as much as Dark Souls 3, which is my favorite Souls installment. If you enjoy the Souls-like genre, Lords of the Fallen 2023 is an absolute must have. The 2nd installment is already in full development and I honestly can't wait to see how this game evolves. They hit the recipe on the mail with this one, my only hope is that they don't start too far from where they are cause they've almost reached something perfect in my eyes. Read more

I absolutely loved "Lords of the Fallen" on PS5! If you're a fan of the Souls-like genre but sometimes find them a bit too punishing, this is the game for you. It's got all the dark fantasy atmosphere, challenging combat, and epic boss fights you expect, but it's much more forgiving. You'll still die, but it never feels unfair or overly frustrating. The world is beautiful and eerie, the combat is weighty and satisfying, and there's plenty to explore. Perfect for veterans looking for a slightly less brutal experience, or newcomers who want to dive into a Souls-like without getting completely overwhelmed. Highly recommend! Read more

Ok, I was skeptical of the game. My track record for "good" souls-like games has been pretty bad. So when I saw this game for $20 on sale, I was cautiously optimistic. Booted the game up and I was pleasantly surprised. It's a fun game with a neat mechanic where you move back and forth between two different worlds as you traverse the game. Graphically, it looks pretty stellar. Not that I'm surprised anymore with where we are technology-wise. Gameplay is solid. Enemies have a bit too much HP, but that's a common complaint in most of my plays of more modern souls-likes. Part of the charm of these games was that you were on a similar playing field with all enemies. Now, you better be ready to make some perfect maneuvers or you're going to be toast. Enemy variety is a bit low. There's a handful of enemy types and they get reused with different "element" additions. It seems pretty common now. You have your normal enemy, the heavy, the ranged heavy, the shambling enemy, etc. They're just reskinned. Online play is pretty nonexistent. Don't expect a lot of other people playing with you. That said, the few times I got a friend in the game, it was a good time! And, they don't bug out immediately after you beat a boss so I ended up playing for a few hours with the same player. It was a ton of fun! Read more

I don't watch any online gameplay videos so no help. This game is pretty challenging. It has it's soulborne similarities but you go in-between real and a umbral spirit dimension which ads more enemies. You have to switch sometimes between them to progress. Also when enemies deplete your health you enter the umbral dimension and have to find waypoints that return you to the living. Has lots of weapon upgrades but no real armored upgrades just a downgrade the lightens item while taking away stats. It also has different selection of randomizers and handicaps you can equip. The beginning is a little slow to figure out and lots of hidden paths . The map makes this game even harder as it's just a picture as reference. I played this after elden ring so it took me a while to quit hitting elden ring controller buttons. Got it for 19.99 and put about 170 hours into it Read more
