What players say
I thought the combat was horrific but the story carried the game massively, I couldn't stop playing it, loved the world and the characters. Just stick the game on easy if you aren't willing to do a massive deep dive in the combat system (like me), if you're a Styx fan it's well worth it IMO.
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
The story telling and dialog is fantastic, but the combat is suicidal. If you enjoy the Styx series, this is the start of it all and worth the play. I just wish they would remaster it with modern combat. It would be a masterpiece.
Shocked this is one of the most highly praised Spiders games on here, stunned Bound by Flames gets the "edgy dialogue" criticism and this doesn't. Interesting concept, mid story, cringe repetitive dialogue, awful combat backed by an awful ally AI which you have to babysit to make them at all useful, 1 of the 2 player characters is based on stealth and any meaningful combats its impossible to use on, thanks to forced...
