[quote][b]Dust: An Elysian Tail — чудова нагода обрати для себе те, що вам важливіше: ігровий процес чи сюжет. Золотої середини на жаль конкретно в цьому рівнянні немає. Гра дуже приваблива естетично, її персонажам співчуваєш та запам'ятовуєш їх, і видно, що її сюжет був написаний хоч і не досвідченим профаном, зате з любов'ю. Втім, грається вона до болю елементарно. Не легко (складність можна обрати й вищу), а просто на базовому рівні вимог до жанру метроідванії. Тому на 100% порадити її можна всім, окрім гравців зі стажем.[/b][/quote] [quote]👍[b][i]СПОДОБАЛОСЯ[/i][/b] [b]+ Зовнішній вигляд.[/b] Все виглядає як інтерактивний мультфільм на межі між аніме та американської телевізійної мультиплікації. [b]+ Озвучування.[/b] Актори вклали душу у своїх героїв. Це відчувається буквально з перших же хвилин гри. [b]+ Сюжет.[/b] Елементи сюжету доволі звичні: амнезія головного героя, ксенофобна війна, балакучий меч і ще більш балакуче звірятко в ролі супутниці для комедійної розрядки.

Це дуже цінно в часи, коли ігри з подібною насиченістю чи якістю сюжету розтягують мінімум до 20.[/quote] [quote]👎[b][i]НЕ СПОДОБАЛОСЯ[/i][/b] [b]- Елементарний ґеймдизайн.[/b] Досвідчених гравців ця гра нічим не здивує. За винятком дрібних гріхів (як от неможливість регулювати висоту стрибка) — все в ній зроблено на совість, але дуже стандартно та одноманітно.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 10: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

有多少人是先看过本子才知道游戏的
doesnt work on steam deck
Este juego es uno de mis favoritos. sus fondos, colores, diseño de personajes, voces y hasta el combate estan bien hechos.Podria elaborar mas al respecto pero siento que sin importar lo que diga no le voy a hacer justicia. Lo unico malo que le veo a esta obra que no tiene una segunda parte o spin off.
es un juego divertido y se nota que esta realizado con cariño, me gusto los toques de humor que tiene y si bien los combos son repetitivos en ningun momento se siente aburrido el juego, con misiones secundarias variadas y algunos personajes secundarios interesantes, lastima que no tenga otro juego
It's a very charming and stylish game. I'm impressed that Dean DodrillI did all artwork and programming himself. The combat is the main star of the show, it's so much fun to pull of all these insane combos. I was only gonna check out the game really quick after i bought it and then go to bed but i ended up playing for several hours.
Very nostalgic. This was one of, if not, my favorite games on our Xbox 360. Very happy to have replayed it and it's aged super gracefully. The weird, furry art style and visual novel dialogue is peak. I implore you to get used to it because it's really good.
if u like metroidvanias at all you'll love dust its such a great game also lmao at the reviews saying "i like it but im not a furry" just be a furry sis its ok
It's an alright game, tried normal difficultly at the end game, i just spec'd all into fidget and basically just steam rolled the hell out of enemies and boss fight. But the character dialogues is comedy gold!, fidget singlehandedly carried this game experience for me.
[h1] A GAME SO GOOD THAT IT MADE ME FORGIVE FURRIES FOR EXISTING [/h1] You may be thinking: “All Verse, are you crazy? Why let furries scurry about and let them do their thing?”. I say to you, my good friend, that furries have always been creative with whatever scratches their itchy neurodivergent brains, such as their fursuit’s attention to detail, fanarts, animations, and even video games. Zeekers is an example for creating Lethal Company, and so is Dean Dodrill’s creation – Dust: An Elysian’s Tail. You play as Dust, an amnesiac Sasuke-esque character who seeks an explanation as to how he comes into existence suddenly. He is accompanied by the wise talking Blade of Ahrah, and Fidget, the typical small flying loud-mouthed sidekick (the trope that I’m not really a fan of *ehem* Paimon *ehem*). And together, they journey to find the answers to Dust’s existential questions whilst saving people along the way. [h3] STORY 8/10 [/h3] Do not be fooled by its childish furry artstyle. This game offers a compelling story that challenges gamers to tackle existential dread, identity crisis, genocide/ethnic cleansing, sheer failure, and loss - with hope, resilience, and kindness. I only wish they put the main antagonist more depth because the game hinted at his nuanced feelings about Dust, but was never explored, thus felt rushed [h3] ART 9/10 [/h3] The graphics, artstyle, and animations are just spectacular. The most surprising part is that it was made by one person. The fighting animations are also top-notch. Every swing of the sword and casting of spells have so much weight with its flashes, subtle screen shakes, and aftereffects. The walking animation is so smooth that every step makes you feel like a badass because of how cool Dust’s cape moves, with a big hat that makes him look mysterious. It’s a shame that the cutscene animations are often awkward-looking at times, especially in the revelation part. [h3] Music 7.5/10 [/h3] The music is not iconic, but it does the job done when matching the mood of the scenes of the game. Although they are not something that I would listen to regularly on Spotify. It's meh at best. EXCEPT [spoiler] at the part where Dust recites his final speech about being justice incarnate to General Gaius, and also when he “dies” [/spoiler] – during moments of climax. [h3] Gameplay 6.5/10 [/h3] This is unfortunately where I think the game is weakest at. You can swing swords like a maniac and spam spells like an Elden Ring Mage user to feel like an all-powerful deity but I cannot deny how it feels repetitive. The metroidvania games in the market have difficult but rewarding bosses to kill, but not this game. It feels tedious, plain, and outright boring. Although, the voice acting of the bosses are just top-notch. To me personally, that helps me look past the shortcomings of the gameplay. [h3] OVERALL 7.75/10 [/h3] It's a game that made me forgive furries for existing, sure, but nothing revolutionary. To be fair, it was created by one person . I highly recommend this game to those who love to support indie games and would enjoy a really good story.
