A 5 segundos truque para The First Berserker: Khazan
Do you remember the moment that Sekiro forced you to start playing by its rules? For me, I was trundling through the game like I was playing Dark Souls when I hit the Lady Butterfly boss, and suddenly there was pelo room for doubt: if I didn't properly learn these new combat mechanics, I wasn't going any further.
The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.

But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.
Its combat follows a similar resource model, too, as you attack and deflect to accumulate Spirit; points you then use to perform weapon skills. Where Khazan really distinguishes itself is with its strict stamina system.

Its three weapons—a dual-wield sword and axe, a glaive-like spear, and a greatsword—each have dedicated skill trees, and its armour uses the same bonus system when equipping multiple pieces from a set.
Vejo isso mais tais como uma decisãeste para facilitar este desenvolvimento, já que realizar 1 mapa completo da muito Muito mais produção, mas junte isso ao fato do qual as armas sãeste drops aleatórios de inimigos e este ímpeto por explorar diminui bastante, com um Colossal impacto até precisamente na atmosfera geral do jogo.
Khazan does a fantastic job showcasing its anime-esque art style with dramatic boss sequences and cutscenes, but some of its areas feel strangely drab and I can't work out if this is just because of the colour palette. It's not like the game is badly optimised or anything and it ran perfectly for me, but sometimes it does feel a bit like the only places you ever visit are mines, ruins, The First Berserker: Khazan and caves.
Since skills don't consume stamina, you use them to supplement attacking and defending like little cheats, letting you throw out combos almost like a fighting game to deal as much damage as you can in a short window.
Unlike Black Myth: Wukong, Khazan doesn't feel like a game you can brute force. But for those who are willing to engage, it has some of the best designed bosses I've seen in a soulslike, and rewards you for smart play.
Isso faz parecer qual Parcela do progresso foi jogado pelo lixo e honestamente nãeste entendi essa decisão por “resetar” certas coisas do mapa após sair dele.
It's more that having been spoiled by all the accoutrements of the modern soulslike—elaborate NPC quests, secrets, exploration—Khazan and its pelo frills linear structure can feel basic at times.
A reviravolta de que temos no meio da história era extremamente esperada e a única maneira dela continuar, tornando tudo previsível demais e desprovido criatividade no roteiro.
