Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Completely unbalanced. There are some totally explainable limitations put on the player that do not make any sense and once you reach level 3, all final fights become exercise in frustration. That is not a challenge, that is bad design.”
“The combats get stale pretty fast. Same old, same old. I'm sure you could play around with different combinations and skills but there just doesn't seem to be the depth there to merit the fact that these set-piece combats are all you…”
