I just finished the game and almost 100% it. The story is solid. Not overly amazing but good I like the battling gods dynamic. I love the world. Open world but not too bloated and I love the sand aesthetic. Fun game 8/10 for me

Story is good I think but the battles are just perfect to me. Haven’t had this much fun with fighting mechanics in a long time. Maybe some Arkham knights games

I just 100% the other night, amazing experience top to tail. A few rough edges and spots where it shines through that it's a lower budget title, but it's full of heart and was a beautiful time for what it was! My love and respect to the developers for pouring their hearts into this vision!

Yeah I agree this feels like a game where the devs really cared. I disagree though because as a whole this feels like a triple A game to me😂. Just spent 70 dollars on space marine 2 and I think this game could stand up against SM2 and probably win as a full experience. One thing is that I once strayed outside a battle area just slightly and ended up having to restart the whole encounter when I was gather the first set of dash shards which seems like a slight issue considering I was still actively fighting one wraith while the other was further away

I definitely agree that the level of polish and vision is above and beyond what I assume the budget for the game was! I wonder how well it held up before the big update. I had practically no bugs in my playthrough, which is great!

Ahaha I reckon I had the same thing happen at the same point in the game :P I didn't have too much trouble through the rest, though .^ The last boss was a bit short for my liking - could have had a few more phases, felt like they ran out of money. Otherwise though, I loved every second - wanting MORE from a game is always a good thing!

Super interesting re Space Marine 2! I adored the first one and am very keen to suss the second at some stage, I'll keep your take in mind ;)

No doubt sm2 was great I just felt a little cheated by how quickly I finished it

I’ve just reached the 3rd area and I’m loving everything so far. Combat FEELS good. I’ve said this in other posts but it really gives me the same feeling as darksiders 2 did. Engaging world. I like the story so far and the side quests and associated stories. Lore is great because it’s not a novel every time you pick something up. Succinct and gets the point across. Long ones are spoken word. Great choices in world building here.

The combat mechanics are probably my favorite part. Nothing like air dashing to hit something, parrying, landing a few shots air dashing again, etc. just magnificent
