Lords of the Fallen Limited Edition (Video Game)

Customer Review

Playful I have nothing against Lords of the Fallen. It plays like the short, fat brother of Dark Souls everything a little slower and clumsier halt but you get used to fast for one or two hours to the combat system. It should, however, said, Lords of the Fallen may be every respect DarkSouls in fact, but in my opinion not nearly as good.
The story is nicely alongside but nothing extraordinary. Light rpg fare.
Similarly, the characters are very flat and all interchangeable. Except for Harkyn, the main character who has taken care of by its rough, robust type for a laugh or two with me, the others look very "pale" and fulfill only the task to give you your next mission objective.

The combat system is as mentioned very sluggish, at the beginning it is defined its approximate roll, you want to draw as massive warrior, rogue or faster magic warrior hybrid into the field? As a warrior beats and Harkyn moves at a coziness that his bulky figure is reasonable, would indeed be gar nich bad when his demonic enemies would show the same comfort to the day but the move despite similar figure surprisingly fast, even the thick guys armor, sword and shield move nimbly like a bee. This results in many battles to a miserable rumeiern and tactics, because the time slot to attach your own beats is so infinitely small. Slightly better go as a villain, it strikes quickly and can crack through combos higher burst damage, which here is the right timing is crucial, which is why this style of play is much more complicated, at least for me.

Visually, the game is quite nice to look at where you have to adapt to a lot of fog and annoying, blinding sun rays. To Soundtrack I can not have much say I know, but that especially during boss fights music ran I remember no specific piece, so this is no comment.

But now to the nail in the coffin of my Lords of the Fallen has ruined because unfortunately Lords of the Fallen full of minor and major bugs.
Among the smaller things such as belong fps slumps to smaller lags, but is manageable although annoying or the times of Dialogton disappears and listen again after restarting the game is still in the frame.
The opponent just appear or disappear through the wall or Harkyn fall through the floor once and dies is already annoying and led to some frustration but with me not to give up.

But what gave me the rest were the constant game crashes. The first well 15 hours was all problems until after the Fourth Boss I this game despite its mistakes here and there celebrated and had fun at the play but after the death of the fourth boss we went I strolled leisurely through the catacombs was just before 5th gone Boss ... zack! ... crash, bad mood flutes almost 1 1/2 hours playing time ... not so bad and restart again the catacombs ... running back this time only much faster and I'm often the memory crystal to .. .naja halt store. Was a good thing because soon followed by a further crash. But at the time we went still at the first crash I was already playing a par hour I thought maybe it was just the Xbox too hot but after the 5th Boss went really started the crashes were so frequent now I stand in front of the 6th boss and colleagues can not place because the game gives every 15min the spirit.

Well I have so problems Googled and many other people have similar problems to the PC version, there are probably solutions for the crash but for the Xbox, I found nothing even of 5Gb patch has brought nothing. And now I've tried everything I could and found a solution and now regret to say the Lords of the Fallen is the first game that I return again, because this game is an absolute disgrace circumstances. Maybe others have better luck and no problems with their version but I thought I warn just once before, so no one has to suffer the same frustrations as I ;-)

In conclusion, I can only say that it actually NEN very solid game but unfortunately unplayable for me. Under normal circumstances, would have been in there but so through my experience I can say no just buy recommendation and 3 to 4 star.
Anyone interested in this kind of game has bock heavy I recommend more 1 and 2 make the Dark Souls just everything a little bit better than Lords of the Falllen but are not quite so pretty.
