    I dreamt of the next Dark Messiah of Might & Magic and I got Elderborn. It has been a long time since I spent two nights in a row playing a game and there’s only multiplayer mode that’s lacking here. [04/2020, p.56]

Take away DARK SOULS' superb level design, dark fantasy atmosphere and exquisite storytelling and add a bright neon color palette and you have ELDERBORN.

Everything is tedious and clunky, from annoying traps, to floaty controls, to tutorial messages that stop the game.
