Batora: Lost Haven

Batora is a winner. Female protagonist, orange and purple glow magical powers, beautiful alien landscapes. The plot pacing really kept me hooked, the skill tree is cool, there's a lot of info but was easy enough to figure out. I got stuck at a boss fight, so I quit? Would be neat to add a skip feature, the bosses are much higher difficulty than the rest of the game which is mostly narrative. I was already using the "cheat" for non penalty ammo type. Might try again but either way it was worth it.

Rating this game is difficult because it does not really match a rating category. Would i recommend this? Probably not. Does it deserve the bad rating? Also no. It looks fine, competently made, puzzles work, combat is a bit on the repetitive side.

It's not amazing, but it's pretty good. The combat feels a bit button-mashy other than changing color at the right times - maybe there was some sort of signal for when you can attack safely, and when to dodge, but I didn't ever see anything like that, and basically just alternating attack and dodge the whole time works well enough to finish the game (with occasional use of powers). The puzzles were more fun than the combat, it's a shame there was like four times more combat than puzzles. Especially with the rolling ball puzzles being in there, there could easily have been a rolling ball *skill* section too. The story was fine, but not interesting enough that I feel any desire to play again making any of the other choices. I got ending C of four you say? Great. I can pretty much infer what the other three endings were. Got a bit of a bug at the end, where when I tried to replace a rune when all my rune slots were full, it just flashed the limit like I was making an error, even though the green rune I was putting in said it needed 4, and the green limit said I had 4 available - same with blue rune and a 2-limit. I guess maybe there's something like if you take out a red rune it reduces the limits for the other colors too? Not clear, looked like a bug.

Genel olarak güzel. Aksiyon sistemi vasat gelsede puzzle kısmını çok beğendim. Yaptığımız seçimlerin hikayeye etkisi var. Türkçe dil desteği için teşekkür ediyorum.

meh Boring, janky, poorly written. Choices don't matter at all. Bullet sponge enemies and they hit like a truck. Attacks are poorly telegraphed, melee is a death sentence. The rune system is simply bad. Controls are trash, inconsistent. Not just combat. When moving, shooting, it seems like only 8 directions exist in the game hence controlling the character with an analog sticks. UI is terrible. No minimap. Skipping dialogue is not fast enough. The only good thing i can bring up is that you can remap the by default awful controls. Hack & slash my a... more like hacked and slashed my wallet. PS: the main character is terrrrrrible. She's obnoxious and whiney af. I just can't stand listening to her.

Decent one time experience!

Nuda, šeď, stereotyp. Nesmyslné pasáže v ději, který obsahuje hromadu cringe dialogů, téměř nulová variabilita nepřátel, soubojový systém je o něco zábavnější pouze s bossy. Nejprve jsem si myslel, že tuto barevnou pohádku zvládnu dokončit, ale po několika hodinách se zkrátka opakující motivy ve všech aspektech hratelnosti zají.
