Dark Devotion

Dark Devotion is a good game that is a bit hard to understand, there is no real quest log, but instead there is a location on a map, which is fine. The controls on controller need to be able to be remapped. It is over all though from what I have played a interesting little game.

Very similar to Blasphemous in setting. Graphics. And game play. Sorry, I don't know why there is an abundance of games relaying on the reiterated death of the player. Is an ugly mechanic that just make the game obnoxious. Devotion is not exception. When you die, at the beginning, you also have to take the starting weapon over and over the blacksmith. Pure frustration. Graphics are nice. All around this damned world. Where gods hate you. You need to repent of something you never did. Whatever. The combat is tolerable because is very simple but, that said, traps are genuinely annoying. Stamina, that you consume for attacking, dodging and parrying, is quick to deplete. So you can find yourself being a sitting duck and forced to take damage. Overall, the continuous deaths, because you forgot a trap, at the 10th times you do a level is too much and I ended up uninstalling. The game is not interesting enough to make up for this.

- Три кнопки для кувырка, зачем? - Игра очень тёмная, темнее, чем в логове Мануса - Отсутсвует сильный удар - Отсутсвует прыжок и зацепы за уступ - Нет возможности вернуться в предыдущую комнату, в сочетании с предыдущим пунктом - сильно бьёт по исследованию локаций - Воскресающие БОССЫ, даже отец серии Соулс до такого не додумался, на каких грибах сидели разработчики? - Странная механика смерти, после гибели у персонажа отбирают снаряжение - Отсутвует вещмешок, только четыре слота под расходники, которые отберут после поражения

Seems that every interaction in the game risks crashing the game or at the very least locking you into a menu that has no exit. There could not have been any testing done for these kind of problems to get through. This is an alpha version of a game. Do not buy.

"- In the Temple of faith there only darkness and madness await you... has a templar of faith u'r search redemption. -" that the main plot with no spoil. conclusion at end for skipp my story. the game is a rogue like style with some mix with some castlevania and kinda some exploration, i will not gonna lie i started die 3 time to tutorial boss cause of reaction time and stamina consomption but then after 1-2 hours of play and pass multiboss and area u will become more and more skill for dodge and block attack etc.... but then u will fight new enemy with more hp more defense then group of enemy and did over and over again until u find a different result that basicly the core of the game, Die and retry get back to the inn speak to smithy equip yourself with some equipement u save lower quality they are cause u know rusty or nothing, its better than nothing lol and get back to the saved teleportation statue or start over again or start at "new area" checkpoint, at start the map is small u think hell no this temple is super big and no linear so u can fight ending boss at beginning basicly. Conclusion : the game is HARD to learn but rewarding when u win some fight and explore a little, its a die and retry game don't expect to live forever u will die soon or later by trap/ambush/poison/boss etc..., cause the game is make like that u need learn patern/map/trap/enemy and other stuff to make u advance and get u redemption if, u like dark soulish style and story then its can be u'r type of game but if u want a game with no thinking and harder then past it cause u gonna rage a lot.
