This is my favorite game in the world. my library is filled, (over 150 games), with super awesome games. but out of them all (especially cause i generally prefer vr games), B&S shines the brightest in my eyes.
While i may have exaggerated a little, blade and sorcery certainly does have very well crafted physics combat. I wouldnt say its the most realistic per say, but it deff feels the best of all 26 VR fighting games i have.
the story in this game might not be super deep, or especially meaningful, but thats anyways not the point of this game. this game is a SANDBOX (fighter) game, focusing on MEELE and MAGIC combat. Anyone who says the game gets boring, because its so repetative or enemys are too easy, doesnt have enough creativity. You have to give yourself challenges, missions or role play. you need to really try to immerse yourself into the combat. I also love the kind of games where you start with absolutely nothing and build up to get stronger, by finding loot and selling it then buying cooler gear.
yes i will admit, the boss fight certainly does get repetitive, especially when your speedrunning or grinding. but again make it fun, find some way / inspiration. If all else fails and you really cant get any more fun out of this game, theres always the GIGANTIC MOD COMMUNITY!
speaking of mods: the game alone is already worthy of over 100 hours of gameplay. but when you add mods from the ever growing mod community, the game can genuinely get you addicted. if i could game on for infinity, without physically getting exhsausted and without a time limit, i could easily put in over 500 hours. Buut i do have 50 other games to play and other things to do xD.
The mod community really is amazing, but mods can get frustrating if you aren carefull and patient. only download one mod at a time, then test it, then add another. if you alsways do it this way, you will be able to find any issues with mods easily.
anyways. in conclusion: the game doesnt have much / any story (there are lots of lore pages though, i urge you to read them), but the combat really is amazing, the weapon handling is smooth, clean and can feel real, the role play potential and fun potential with enough creativity (as in many VR games) is extremely high. and with mods (theres also a multiplayer mod, that apperently works pretty well) the game gets way to good. BUY THIS GAME, i would wholeheartedly recommend this game even at full price, (unless your someone like me, who has trouble buying anything at full normal price xD), and i know anyone could have loads of fun with this game.
I did forget to mention one thing, this game can get very very violent. alone maybe not so bad, with certain mods xD lets just say you can get a tad psycho while playing (while not after, probably... hopefully,,)
If you buy this game i wish you the best of times and that you dont turns crazy.
if you dont, well suck to be you. youre really missing out
