We Who Are About To Die

really fun game the best there is with this type of genre

Mentionable Points: Alright fellas. You will feel like a bad@$S that just spawn with god tier weapons who likes to chop MF's heads off. Use a bladed weapon and only attack cross body. This means, swing from the left to the right while moving right (pretty freaking simple...move the way you attack...) and try to cut his head off that way. Change direction and repeat. Do this 5-50 times (depending on how many enemies you wanted to destroy ;D), and you got a great death dealing game. However, if you want to please the crowd, .... simply buy the right weapons. Challenges however, are also pretty straight forward.... In other words, jump in, kick @$$, chop the heads off people, and enjoy. Great points: - You truly feel like you #$%$ Sh1t up :D. Good points: - The mechanics are pretty good and it doesn't boot you from the game. Also, it saves your progress and wants you to have a great time killing people, leveling up, and gaining fame. - There are many weapons, but if you want to feel like you dominate everything, then you use the same weapons and use the same attacks. Bad points: - Combat is favored to certain weapons (bladed with side attacks). Overhead attacks, poke attacks, upward, and downward attacks just freaking suck. Like, they are terrible. - Blocking is pointless, just destroy them without thought. - Can seem repetitive (in a chop that MF's head off kind of way) - Tutorial is focused so much on combat that you get super bored and skip the tactical stuff (unless you're a drone...then you do the opposite....unlike a gladiator :D) - RNG in the beginning only feels like a thing for the first run { maybe 2....if you get so unlucky that you have 24 cats and all but 1 have 3 legs ;) } Overall: - I recommend the game if you get it on sale. - Throw it in your wish list, wait for it to at or drop below $15, and grab yourself a great "Early in development" game. - Otherwise, wait 6-55 months for their "Very small (but highly motivated) development team" to make some changes.

*Some Warning* At this stage im getting a lot of FATAL ERROR. The first 2 was because of the settings and one after the first career fight ended. Hopefully all will be resolved soon. I loved Gladiator Begins and Colosseum:Road to freedom on the PS and ever since there was no game that could fill that void. This game could be it! MAKE IT HAPPEN DEVS! :)

Awesome. Just wish it was a bit harder.

fireeeee

Patiently waiting for 1.0 - devs are working on it and active in steam discussions. I've beaten all the backstories on the standard difficulty, and it was quite fun! Defs got my money's worth so far, and I'll put this game down for now until 1.0. It's great to pick up and play a few matches if you only have a limited time too, which is nice. Combat is challenging but fair. A few rough spots with models glitching out and polarms getting stuck (happened to me only once). There is a surprising amount of strategy and risk/reward planning, figuring out what order to purchase upgrades, how to spend your resources and what matches to take. Different backstories do give good flavor and there are enough differences between them to keep it interesting. Overall, happy that I got this game on sale - if you are unsure. wait until the 1.0 update.
