The Last Faith

Fun little game. 13 hours for ~95+ completeion. Ain't no speedrunner. Game is very casual, probably the most casual side scroller I've ever played. And that's totally fine, change of pace was great. No sweating, just destroying everything. For those who wanna Platinum, do Aldrich quest asap, before entering last biome. When you'll get last exploration ability, to unlock black&red doors - do his quest before proceeding further or he'll be found dead and you wont get 2 trophies. Oh and mark places where you found Unborn collectibles. Bloodborne influence on this project is very obvious. The only mehs about the game is how short it is, and some unresponsiveness during jump attacks. Character reacting to commands right or left, while airborne with delay. Looks clumsy. Didnt play DLC, but it's free so yeah, one more pro.

Yes, it is "We have Bloodborne at home", but at the same time it is it's own unique game, and I really liked it and recommend to give it a try, though there might be a time you'll be wondering "Where the hell do I go next?", so the lack of available markers for mini-map is a bit sad.

Минусы: 1) Переходы между локациями/уровнями плохо сделан (моргает черный экран, что сбивает с темпа), теряется чувство целостности игрового мира. 2) Некоторым местам не хватает наполненности, будто вырезали врагов или мини-боссов. 3) Не хватает маркеров для карты, очень много предметов остается позади. Сюда можно добавить, что получение двойного прыжка слишком далеко в прохождении. 4) Игровые катсцены могли быть лучше. 5) Баланс получения валюты и прокачки немного ощущается неправильным. При обычном прохождении, без фарма мобов, имел много валюты к середине игры, прокачал характеристики и многие враги не представляли угрозы. 6) Перестал доверять стенам, бью каждую. Ломающихся стен с секретами очень много на мой взгляд. 7) Сложность. Почти нет мест с челленджем для игрока, всё (боссы и обычные комнаты) проходится спокойно и умеренно, кроме финального босса. Для кого-то может быть и плюс, если хочется поиграть для расслабления. 8) В снежной локации переборщили с яркостью во время метели. 9) Нет спец. меток на карте для ворот и прочего, к которым по частям открываешь проход в разных уголках локаций. 10) Подача сюжета и персонажи не показались интересными. 11?) Защита от перекачивания? Тут сложно сказать, в определенный момент будто стал наносить минимальный урон атаками по боссам. И другие минусы по мелочи : -некоторые элементы интерфейса плохо смотрятся; квадратики вместо некоторых букв,знаков. -иконки оружия сливаются в похожее друг на друга пиксельное месиво в меню апгрейда; -герой иногда плохо цеплялся за платформы, происходило редко, но осадок остался. -герой может садиться, что используется в основном для уклонений, а минус заключается в том, что это действие не прерывает атаки как кувырок. Игра неплохая, заслуживает 6/10, хороший стиль, интересное исполнение способностей и механик для боя, но много недочётов, недоработок в разных аспектах. Не довели до ума много элементов. Берите на свой страх и риск.

Summary: A solid metroidvania oozing with atmosphere Combat: Combat is solid, with a lot of choice. First, you have a primary weapon and a secondary weapon. Each weapon slot has two hot swap slots. Your primary weapon has an alternate attack, and your secondary weapon consumes resources (bullets or magic). You also have a power up (the first one you get is a parry, although you get more choices throughout the game). This provides the player with a lot of choice, most of which they will not need to use throughout the game. An interesting design choice is that walking into most enemies does not hurt you (unlike other metroidvanias); movement is emphasized a lot in this game. Music: The music is atmospheric, and never gets in the way of the game. Boss monster visual design was kind of samey, which is a disappointment. Level Design: The levels are what you would expect. Some interesting additions are frozen ground which causes you to slide, swamp water which slows your movement, and way more breakable walls than I would like to see. The map is largely coherent, although some doors and elevators extend off the map to different map layers or to a disconnected map section which is disorienting. The player can pin points of interest on the map which helps with backtracking. Lore: The lore is rich and the story is good. However, the language used is intentionally obtuse. I would recommend players read/watch lore summaries if they find themselves lost in the plot. Overall: Great execution on a coherent idea. Some downsides, but over all a positive experience. Strong recommend for any metroidvania fan, or fan of the Bloodborne vibe. I'd give it an 8/10.

Do I have Dementia? I don't understand a single description of any item. I don't know where I am or have to go. And I am so slow, it feels like I'm tripping over my own feet. I'm also easily destracted, is it just me or is everything so boring? Do I have to go to a doctor or should I just play a better game?

Ao DEV que achou uma boa ideia esconder um caminho obrigatório através de uma interação com uma estátua que mescla no cenário e que só aparece a interação quando fica perto dela os meus mais sinceros vá tomar no seu cu, fora isso, muito bom o jogo!

Upon completing this game, I immediately added it to my favorites. If you enjoy Souls-likes and/or Metroidvanias, you should absolutely play this one. The combat and traversal (over time) become pretty fun, the artwork in this game is very nice, you can cancel any attack you try to execute in order to dodge incoming attacks, and there are some really memorable boss fights. One complaint I have is that you can't fully uncover the map because you can't reach some corners. The completionists will understand that one. I do have to say that a lot of content within the game feels a bit more than inspired by From Software titles (Dark Souls and Bloodborne specifically). This game plays hopscotch with the line between homage and blatant ripoff. BUT it's still a very good game and worth recognition. For me, it's a 4 out of 5.
