    Very impressive. It's true that this game is in the same genre as the Souls game, but it also brings its own feel and flavor, and that's much appreciated. This is a very challenging game, but it's also incredibly satisfying once you learn how to defeat a foe. It also has amazing graphics, much better than the Souls games. I look forward to the sequel.

    Unstable, too unstable to be played for a proper review really.

    -Crashes on launch
    -Crashes mid game
    -Lags on high end hardware
    -Game breaking bugs that ruin your save and make you start the entire game over brand new

    The list goes on. Avoid this title on PC.

    A more refined version of the Souls formula. Which in effect means a more refined version of garbage. If you want my opinion on this type of game, check my Dark Souls review.

    You see, this is actually better than Dark Souls. It has better graphics, it has a better character system, it is more accessible to play without reducing the "difficulty". It actually has a story and bothers to tell it. It has far better controls, and keyboard and mouse are workable. The port is quite fine now after the patches, i played it at max settings on my R9 380 gpu with no issues.

    So why it was destroyed by the critics, "professional" and users alike?

    Because even a refined clone of Dark Souls, is just a mediocre game. If you remove the hype, remove the blinders for people, and stop the shills from promoting it, people can see the Souls recipe for what it is: Bad design and cheap production values masquerading as "challenge".

    I mean seriously, if Souls games are the masterpieces all the idiots claim they are, shouldn't a clone with better graphics, at least deserve a metacritic of 80? Think about it for a second.

    This game is average. I give it a 5, which is MORE than i have given all Souls games. My opinion is that if you have a capable modern system, and want to try your hand on the Souls class of games, you are better off picking this instead. If you don't like this, you won't like Souls games either, and if you claim you are a Souls fan and you don't like Lords of the Fallen, you are a hypocrite.    … Expand

    Oh wait for it - controls are amazing with keyboard and mouse - the mouse does need mouse 4 and 5 though. Some minor glitches left after all the patches that were released. Honesly this is a great game to be released on the market that would hopefully generate healthy competition in the genre.

    Found this to be a really enjoyable experience, obviously coming from Souls it's a bit similar and does it quite well. Combat is solid and enjoyable and story is there if you want to dig through the lore. Definitely worth a look if you like the DemonDark Souls style games.

    My only complaints are that the targeting system is poor with multiple enemies present. And the character builds are also pretty poor imo. Warrior builds are substantially more powerful than others. The cleric is a very bland class. It is not your typical Cleric archetype. The Rogue is way underpowered and not flashy at all.    … Expand

Even the slight changes from 1 to 2 can seem jarring. Going from DS to Lords of the Fallen is pretty rough. It feels like you are playing DS in jello. Even for a light rouge character, you feel slow and awkward rolling. The attack system even with 2 handed knives is slow and cumbersome. If feels more spectacle fighter than DS. With heavy armor on, don't even bother rolling. It makes fat rolling look like a ninja flip. It you haven't played DS, then go ahead and pick this up on a sale. The balance is terribly off, and can be very hard to very easy. The bosses are super simple and because a little repetitive after a while but look great. Overall, the art style of this game is blizzard sans color. It looks terrible even when technically, the graphics are good. There is nothing original in this game except the XP system. Its a shame that a good idea like that is buried in a creative black hole. Its like 99% From Soft and 1% CI. In the end, it's a barely competent Souls clone that most people should and will skip.… Expand

After about 7 hours into the game, I had probably accumulated about 2-3 hours of actual play time with 4-5 hours of backtracking and replaying over and over after crashes. I gave up on the XP chaining and would just scamper for a save point at any chance just to salvage as much XP before the inevitable crash loss.

    Eventually I hit a point in the game where just walking down a mandatory path would hang and crash ('LordsOfTheFallen.exe has stopped working'), repeatedly, preventing any further progress. I give up.    … Expand

    Despite what fans will try to say, this game is basically a Dark Souls clone. But so what? Is it bad that so many shooters have drawn inspiration from Halo and Counter Strike? Is it bad that so many MMO's have copied Warcraft? Is it bad that League of Legends turned a WC3 fan map into an entirely new genre called MOBA? No. This is what the gaming industry does. One game hits it big, and everyone improves on its model.

    When I first started playing Lords of the Fallen I was blown away. In my first few hours of playing it, I was convinced that it was actually BETTER than the Dark Souls series. I liked that the art style was dark fantasy, instead of a miserable nightmare. I liked that it was difficult, but not impossibly hard. I liked how the spells feel complimentary to melee combat, rather than entirely different class skill set. I liked that the longer you go without dieing the more experience you get, encouraging you to gamble with your life.

    But the longer I played the more I realized how incomplete this game is. It needs a lot more fine tuning, and it feels like its still in beta. Firstly, the combat gets a little wonky the further you progress. Yes it's hard to kill stuff, but in a weird way. Either you are surrounded by far too many enemies who are spinning your camera around in circles and there's no room to move, or you have come face to face with a wall of shields in a narrow hall way. Most of the difficult fights are hard simply because they are awkard. There isn't a the same surgical feeling of precision in this game that there is in Dark Souls.

    The longer I played, the more cheese mechanics I learned to just kind of cheat my way through. For example, I was constantly shield bashing people to the ground, and then smacking them, letting them get up, and repeating. But the problem is that you have to do this. When there are huge guys hiding behind shields, thats kind of the only way you can kill them. Alternatively, you can use your big spells, and then hide for several minutes while you wait for the cooldown to end and your mana regenerate.

    These problems become even more pronounced when you get to the boss fights. Basically every boss has a trick or two that allows you to sneak in some damage, and then you back off, and repeat. The worst part is that these bosses have far too much health and it takes like 10-20 minutes of cheesing them to slowly work them down. Sadly, all of the bosses themselves look, act and sound really epic, but they just aren't that fun.

    The second major problem in this game is navigation. The whole story recycles the same world and zones. As the story progresses, you realize that you have to backtrack to the same areas that you have already been in several times. The only variety is that there happens to be different, bigger enemies in those places. The biggest cause for annoyance in this is that the game never gives you any hints or clues about where to go. You just have to kind of walk around in circles until you figure out where the game's story continues. (Or go watch youtube guides.) What's most frustrating in all of this, is that most of the environments look very similar. It's quite easy to get lost in this game while you wonder around in circles, trying to find some awkwardly hidden door or passage.

    Unfortunately, I think the problems with the combat and the world probably only exist because the company that made it is small and couldn't afford to keep working on it.

    I had fun playing this game, and I actually played it through to completion. That's more than I can say for 90% of the games in my Steam Library.

    I think this game franchise has a ton of potential and I really hope the sequel comes out some time soon. Moreover, I hope they have a budget and team large enough to make a game that lives up to that potential.    … Expand

    But all of this could be overcome, but backtracking is worst of all. Main quest send Harkyn multiple times to the same places with only stronger enemies (respawn every location change) and locations are dull and boring.

    An extremely slow and clumsy mess of a game that has some slightly nice ideas but fails in spectacular fashion to execute them. I see plenty of people excusing the game because the studio is polish or because it's small... as if that changes the gameplay. They could have skimmed in graphic quality and the like and focus on a better mechanic, which is what a videogame is for after all.An extremely slow and clumsy mess of a game that has some slightly nice ideas but fails in spectacular fashion to execute them.

They could have skimmed in graphic quality and the like and focus on a better mechanic, which is what a videogame is for after all.

    The biggest flaw has been stated multiple times, the movements being extremely slow and frustrating, which initially they might have decided was to give weight to the weapons but funnily enough at some point it makes the weapons look weightless and it's the character the one who has some arthritis or something: no, devs, a heavy weapon doesn't move steadily slow, it might move slow at first and can be hard to stop it's movement, but if it's slow during the entire swing, then it's the character holding it at that speed.

    But besides that massive annoyance, there are some other quality of life things that games understood long before this like:
    ·who thought it's a great idea to make the switch consumables and use consumables on the same key, have they heard of a directional pad? ever?
    ·when you lock on a target you are unable to run and all you can do then is roll, good luck handling that
    ·option to disable autoplay audio on the scrolls
    ·option to disable slowmotion animations (also, seriously, did you think the game needed to be Slower?)
    ·running attacks (not talking about the leap heavy attack)

    All in all this feels more like a cashgrab that only gets a modest score from people desperate to defend the company for whatever reason or those who heard it's compared to Dark Souls and try to "stick it to those snobs".

    As for characters, story and all that... yeah, not even worth mentioning.    … Expand

    The story is awful and sounds like something that has been thrown together in an hour. Definitely comes off as some generic fantasy crap.

    The level design of the castle is confusing and clunky. You will probably get lost at some point in this game because the quest journal doesn't tell you anything at all about where to go. There's a ton of backtracking involved which could also get under your skin. It's not like other games where the transitions after a boss are seamless, you can definitely sense a lack of cohesion from the developers when placing the bosses in the levels.

    Combat is slow-paced but any Souls veteran will get used to it. Patience is the name of the game, and after watching your enemy blindly flail away, you can go in for the strike.

    Graphics are decent, but the fps performance on the master race is less than desirable. You will probably crash a couple of times during the playthrough like i did, so save often. Not a well-optimized port to say the least.

    Honestly, if you're interested in the bosses like I was, it's better just to see them on youtube. It's 13-15 hour experience that could be put into another game.    … Expand

    + Very nice graphics - atmosphere of dark fantasy. Exquisitely created models of enemies and bosses themselves. Something amazing! LOFTF works well- were declines in liquidity, but the fault of my 3 year old computer.
    + Difficulty. If someone frustrated to Dark Souls and forgive yourself - Lords of the Fallen is a game for him (my case: D). DS is for me hard, too hard for the death penalty. Of course, here too the difficulty level is quite high, but is fine.
    + Mass weapons and armor. Swords, axes, hammers, daggers - what your heart desires. Sets of armor - light, medium, heavy - where any kind of impact on the mobility of hero.
    + Different character classes. You can play a warrior, mage or assassin. You have freedom.
    + The length of the game. The game I did not drag on and somehow I was too short. So at the same time :)
    + The dynamics of the game - avoiding blows to the enemy machającym weapons to the left and right, it makes a lot of pleasure!

    Disadvantages:
    -A Little bit of bugs, glitches. It happened that in one Lord, blocked a foe and regenerated. Then we could not do anything to him: / But this is only a single case.
    -Could Be some puzzles.

    Неабсурдное средневековье - так можно описать мир данной игры

    Сюжет
    В отличии от вышеупомянутых игр он есть, довольно интересный (есть выбор, решения влияют на концовку).

    Графика
    Очень красивая, текстурки завезли

    [h1]Геймплей[/h1]
    Полностью соответствует ДС и ББ, почти ничего нового (из интересного хватка оружия, судя по некоторым другим обзорам люди с icq до 40 единиц наигравшись в ДС не поняли как ими пользоваться и не смогли драться)

    Незаслуженно заниженная в обзорах фанов ДСа, красивая, интересная, увлекающая..

    This is an Ok game. Nothing more, nothing less but ok. There are lots of boss fight. The story is not important and not interesting, but the gameplay, the combat system, the leveling system and the graphics are good. If you not enough hard for the dark souls you can practice with this. Similar, but easier.

    MEDIOCRE. Everything about Lords of the Fallen Screams mediocre. I was hoping for easier version of Souls games but don't kid yourself, it's not even close. I can look past many things but when the core game mechanic is average at best there's something wrong. I'm talking about combat here, it's nowhere near the fluidity and *weight* of Dark Souls that it tries to imitate. If you are boredMEDIOCRE. Everything about Lords of the Fallen Screams mediocre.

Otherwise, just replay one of the Souls game and save your money.… Expand

    Lords of the Fallen may be a simplified, easier version of Souls games, but is it necessarily a bad thing? Being an overpowered iron mountain at the end game, well, it is actually quite satisfying for a change. [Dec 2014]

    I was flabbergasted by what two largely unknown studios managed to achieve. Lords of the Fallen is not just a creative take on the formula introduced by From Software, but also a game that can rival the greatest recent RPGs and looks like Monica Bellucci and Sophie Marceau from their best years.

    Straightforward copycat of "Souls" games achieved a success because it can reach players the Japanese series could not because it was too difficult. The game is still challenging but you won't be desperate from playing it. [Issue#247]
