Has potential, but incomplete
Valdis Story: Abyssal City is a metroidvania style game; you get new power-ups/ablities which help you progress further in the game. While the game appears to have the icing on the cake, it is missing some key ingredients. I was taken by the game's graphics, art, music and gameplay. Good designs of enemies, some pretty cool bosses and a decent character level-up tree. But, it ends there. The main problem with the game is there is no over-world map and story log. It's really difficult to navigate around the large areas and it's easy to get lost. I hope you like to write things down while playing a game because after someone tells you what you should do next, they don't tell you again. So, if you save and comeback later, the NPC won't tell you where to go next. You'll be lost at what you should do or where you should go. That may not be a big problem with some people, but it will annoy most. The next annoyance is the "cancel" or "dash" ability. You'll have to press down and then right or left, or diagonal right or left. This creates a problem when you are jumping around in high areas and fighting a boss. You will accidently dash when you don't want to which could cause an unnecessary death. Next, the timed puzzles. I got bored continuously doing these that I stopped playing. You need to hit some switches to open doors and get past them before they close and you'll need to do that annoying "cancel/dash" move which may cause you to f*** up! Lastly, the boring story. I was so bored of the story and didn't care about the characters. Sometimes I didn't bother reading the dialog of the chracters because the characters where just undeveloped and uninteresting. The story progresses in such an unnatural way. Valdis Story:AB is not the worst game in the world. It's playable and some may enjoy it, but for the rest of us, we would rather spend our precious time playing something more impressive.
