Kena: Bridge of Spirits

Very enjoyable game. I liked the gameplay. You are rewarded for exploring with collectables hidden. I like the combat and how it evolves. The map and user interface feels good to use, and I like how each area on the map automatically shows the tally of collectables. Bosses are good, and have enough variances between them. I'm not a fan of having every rot you've found follow you, but that's a minor inconvenience .

Solid game all around. Doesn't do anything crazy but does everything pretty well. Definitely some room for improvement with the sequel. Animations can be tighter, parry timing is pretty unforgiving, and enemy variety could be better. Most bosses were pretty good but but the final boss sucked big time, especially on the hardest difficulty. Overall a solid action adventure game that's worth it on a sale and if you got 15/20 hours to kill. Looking forward to see how they improve upon this in the sequel.

La direction artistique est sympa et le monde proposé immersif. C’est un jeu très sympathique, dont j’ai apprécié suivre l’histoire. En revanche, la difficulté est mal gérée : on peut passer d’ennemis qu’on extermine sans ménagement à se prendre une raclée monumentale derrière le rocher d’à côté. Les contrôles en exploration sont super, mais en combat… aïe ! Pour le coup, ce n’était vraiment pas agréable à mon goût, que ce soit au clavier/souris ou à la manette, cela n’a rien changé. Je recommande Kena pour son histoire et l’exploration de son monde, mais pas pour les phases de combat. Heureusement, les modes de difficulté permettent de passer outre si cela n’est plus amusant.

die steuerung auf meister-geisterführer ist extrem schlecht !!!! bin jetzt beim schreinwächter und andauernd ziehen die adds mein char mit der kamera in ihre richtung, obwohl ich da nicht hinlaufen wil (was zu extrem vielen sinnlosen hits führt).

Good game, looks incredible and runs well. It's very satisfying to see all the rot get cleansed away as you explore and cleanse new areas. My only complaint would be that the camera and targeting controls were abysmal a lot of the time. I often could not target something that was right in front or on top of me, had to back away and create distance before it allowed me to lock on. Similarily it often wouldn't let me break lock on too. As somebody who likes getting all the achievements I can say that the game has good achievements; almost nothing is missable and the game does a good job of showing what you've collected which I appreciated a lot. The only achievement that casued me some pain was beating the game on the highest difficulty (Master). I played through the game on Master my first time through but I do NOT recommend doing that as it ended up being very frustrating in certain fights. Most enemies deal 50-70% of your entire HP bar in a single hit and have a lot of HP themselves. This is where the targeting issues really contributed to a frustrating experience. Overall I enjoyed the game but I do feel like I would've had more fun if I played on maybe Expert difficulty. The game is very clearly not intended to be played on Master on your first playthrough.

An amazing gem...

um otimo jogo. bem divertido e gameplay um pouco desafiador. arte do game bem bonita!
