Jotun: Valhalla Edition

Cool artwork and story best part of the game. Most of the boss fights were fun and challenging. The last boss fight is utter trash imo, would like to see them revisit and actually come out with some different mechanics for it. The last fight was really my only negative though, great game other than that. You can probably get this game really cheap nowadays.

참 잘만들긴 했다. 그런데 동선이 길~다랗구 길찾기 힘들다...

Pretty nice game if you wanna play something small and great over a weekend. Everything else seemed okay except that the health doesn't get restored for some reason when you return to hub.

It's a Jotun of fun

The aesthetic theming is fantastic, and the bossfights are cool, and of course the art and music are sublime. However, I found the exploration and exposition sequences to be quite dull, despite the subject matter and overall theme being awesome. The camera is also fairly restrictive, which made me feel quite claustrophobic at times. Overall, a wonderful game with an overwhelming amount of love put into it that is apparent to see, but lacking in some key aspects of its execution. 7/10 (Play Spiritfarer, by the same studio, it's an easy 10/10)

SPOILERS FOR FINAL BOSS!!!!!!!!!!!! I have had this game in my steam library for years. It was always too difficult for me. After years, I finally came back to it after getting some more game experience. This game is TOUGH. And it's a satisfying feeling after completing each challenge. It's difficult, but not to a degree of impossibility. The art is incredible. A beautiful blend of stills and fluid animation. The music is amazing. The voice acting!! Every area was unique and exhibited puzzles that were different from ones you just completed. Here is where I get confused. And here is where the spoilers start. [spoiler] After completing each area, it is of course time for a final fight with none other than Odin. Only, Odin, THE GOD OF MANY, INCLUDING WAR AND BATTLE!!!!!, only has one attack. That's right. One attack. Once you get him to a certain percentage, he will initiate a new stage. Which is........ just summoning all the bosses you fought before. While he still limply floats around making his ONE ATTACK. Throwing a spear that you CAN hit to destroy, but has an incredibly inconsistent hitbox. After all these years of putting off this game, I cannot imagine a more disappointing final boss. It felt like a complete cop-out; I suppose the well of creativity with this game ended there. So if you're willing to put in the time and effort to get to that point and deal with the most boring boss fight I have ever seen, I won't stop you. [/spoiler]
