Lords of the Fallen Game of the Year Edition 2014

I like the look and the visual design of the game, and the teaser story is intriguing. Beyond that? ... This is one of those games where the most dangerous and deadly threat you have to face is the awful mechanics of the game itself. Lord of the Fallen plays like a game that was ported - BADLY - from some console or another. The energy mechanic is infuriating, because you can use up your energy in one or two moves and can then do nothing until it recharges, while the enemy never runs out of energy and will kill you while you're still in cooldown. Stability is a problem too. I've made it as far as the second boss, the Commander, and so far the game has crashed on me four times in that fight alone. This most recent time I had him down to just below 50% health before it crashed on me again. I'm glad I only spent $5 on this. I didn't get my money's worth. I'd be really pissed if I'd spent $30 on it. I think I spent about a quarter of my total play time throwing the game the finger because it jumped me off into an abyss again, or killed me while spinning helplessly around trying to end up facing my target, or... Well, you get the idea. Sorry Little Giant, but this game is pure misery to try to play.

You are supposed to die a lot in this game. Frustrating is that 50% of deaths are caused by: - bad camera (you do not see where you are or you do not see where enemy is - room fights are pure luck; - target locking: supposedly done automatic. In reality it does not lock unless you look at the opponent, or it locks some target very far away. Unfortunately, those two aspect of the game override all the good things in the game.

bugged enemies shoot throug the wall, about half a game, shelved it

hmm....i tried playing it for an hour. It's just okay. Pretty frustrating mechanics tho. I bought it for 1.50 tho. I do not recommend this game.

There is a version 2.0 patch available on steam with many fixes. But the version on GOG is 1.0.0. Game may be good, but don't buy it on GOG.
