Flawed but fun
***I'm not super familiar with the genre. Take this with a grain of salt. I'm more of a TRPG and CRPG sort of girl and I come from Warhammer 40K. Also, I haven't played too much. My first impression was disappointment. The editing in cutscenes is terrible. They're all cutouts with camera work with a narration on top and every cut back to the engine is abrupt and jarring — it really doesn't scream production value. And the fixed camera, although it hasn't caused problems, also feels very harsh. The enemies are also too spongey. I had to pump the difficulty a little to have a little fun (otherwise its too easy, which is something I've never said), but then some enemies just become busy work. There's a sweetspot of "engaging with the move-set and basking in the visuals" that they missed, I think. Also, I find it peculiar that they started with the sewer levels of all things. They don't feel too special and the hub is equally strange. The walking around is quite boring, the geomerty is a bit to finicky and, appart from a few extreme exceptions, it's quite unimpressive... Warhammer should feel like too much at all times and it often felt too little. I had to restart and switch characters after almost a whole month's break (the Witch Hunter, I was the Mage) to start having fun with it — which felt quite peculiar —, but I really started enjoying it after that. I cannot attest to the writing of every character, but the Mage annoyed me quite a bit. I've seen snobs written more amusingly. I think it's good fun at times. You might even turn your brain off and just follow the flow. I'm only a couple of hours in... I'll keep playing and update this review eventually.
