Sep 22, 2022Soulstice would have deserved a 7 if it was not for the problematic camera movement which completely destroys the gaming experience. So bad, hope the devs can fix the issue with a future update and give us free camera to enjoy the game
-
Sep 22, 2022I don't understand why the hell did they opt for fixed camera instead of letting the player move the mouse freely during exploration areas! This is a total put-off and it is implemented so badly you can't even see where loot is located, paths are troublesome to explore, everything is confused and lacks order. For me it's a big NO!
-
Sep 22, 2022Seasickness catches me whenever I play this game with that silly fixed camera. Please remove it and introduce free camera motion
-
Sep 22, 2022unfortunately, Soulstice is severely harmed by its senseless and stupid camera. And it's a shame, because the game is otherwise nice with good art style and level design. But the camera issue is so big it changes playing to Soulstice into a complete nightmare
-
Sep 22, 2022Lots of problems with weapons, uninspired level design, terrible camera make this a very bad Bayonetta and DMC clone
-
Sep 22, 2022-bland story
-Bayonetta-style bad imitation
-abysmal camera implementation
-boring combat mechanics -
Sep 22, 2022Feste Kamera ist sehr schlecht. Es hat mein Spielerlebnis total ruiniert. Ich konnte das Spiel wegen dieses großen Problems nicht weiterspielen
-
Sep 22, 2022camera is fixed and the game is unplayable unless you like to throw up. Any direction you go with that cam is a mess
-
Sep 22, 2022ridiculous story + tedious level design + unpredictable and uncomfortable cam motion = Soulstice
-
Sep 22, 2022A very solid entry in the hack and slash arena. Gorgeous character design, tense combat, and a great story to boot. Soulstice also features a really cool dual-character mechanic with a fairly robust skill tree for one of the characters with no respec penalties, which is pretty nice when it comes to combat experimentation. Fans of the genre will not want to pass this up!
-
Sep 22, 2022The truth: it's a beautiful game, with decent art style, cool level design and characters but ruined by absurd fixed cam which makes controlling the character a disaster
-
Sep 22, 20221. you have to press a key every time during dialogues to make them go on ; 2. camera is unmovable which makes level scouting so annoying ; 3. the game heavily stutters during combats and when lots of graphics effects appear on screen ; 4. it is so hard and annoying to control 2 characters with 2 different move sets during chaotic battles; 5. it offers nothing more than DMC and Bayonetta did
-
Sep 22, 2022Het was een prachtig spel met een mooie art-stijl, maar het wordt vernietigd door die vaste camera die moeilijk te verkennen levels maakt. Bovendien zullen mensen die aan misselijkheid lijden ernstige problemen hebben om het te spelen

Sep 23, 2022Marvelous hack and slash, it reminds me a lot of dmc and bayonetta really recommended for lovers of the genre and for who want to try it
-
Sep 22, 2022Fixed camera makes leading the player so complicated. The game is mediocre at best. Levels seem all the same, no environment variation. Combat is confusing and distracting because when you perform moves with Briar, then soon after you see on screen hints to perform other moves with Lute and you have little to no time. I also found spoken interaction with other characters to be flat and monotonous.

Sep 22, 2022we're not in mid-90s with fixed camera, pixels and point and click games. We're in 2k22 with powerful graphics cards and PCs. Pointless camera restriction which makes Soulstice very annoying to play
-
Sep 22, 2022The game, for how much it costs and what it offers (It is not made from a triple A and I don't remember they ever compared it to triple A games) it works, it is entertaining and it is visually beautiful. Clear has flaws but I don't think it's something that ruins the game.
I liked it! -
Sep 23, 2022I would have preferred to play with free camera. Fixed camera is too much of a limitation and ruins the game
-
Sep 23, 2022Pevná kamera je vážný problém. Nemůžete se volně pohybovat. Je těžké sledovat postavu očima a čím více budete hrát, tím více budete pociťovat bolest hlavy. Škoda, že to úplně zničilo hru
-
Sep 23, 2022the funny thing is it imitates DMC in combat style, concept and upgrades but it refuses to imitate Capcom wonderful free camera motion

Sep 22, 2022ta gra ma zły ruch kamery. To rujnuje grę. Nie da się kontrolować gracza i czuje się tak źle. Mam nadzieję, że uda im się to naprawić w przyszłości
-
Sep 22, 2022Sabit kamera bu oyunun en büyük hatasıdır. Oynarken kendinizi kötü hissettiriyor, kusmanız gerekiyor gibi görünüyor. Güzel dünyaya ve renkli seviyelere bakmanıza izin vermez. Gelecekteki bir güncelleme ile düzeltilmesi gerekiyor
-
Sep 22, 2022Not sure why the zoomers struggle with the camera angle, this is a homage to DMC/Bayonetta so if you've played either or was a 90's gamer you will be fine. Its clearly aimed at fans of the genre. The game is a blast
-
Sep 22, 2022The only con I can find in this excellent game is the camera, in some situations/fights is a bit unresponsive and unintuitive and not easy to control while fighting, but the overall gaming experience is excellent, helped with a flawless graphic compartment and combat mechanics.
-
Sep 22, 2022Great art style and amazing cinematics, it's a spectacles for eyes!
Combat pace and camera management can be improved, but it's really satisfying slashing everything. -
Sep 23, 2022Very amazing game! The characters are so cuties. i’m not a very hard gamer but i love nice games like this

Oct 18, 2022The developers responsible for ‘Soulstice’ took a good look at the ‘Devil May Cry’ series. The dark, sinister atmosphere in the desolate world from the game is spot on, and you almost effortlessly conjure smooth and flashy battles from the controller. So where does it go wrong? In the way the camera works. It is mostly fixed, but jumps between scenes, suddenly taking you in completely the wrong direction. The clumsy and awkward way the game handles this is your most difficult opponent.

Oct 14, 2022My 14 hours purging Ilden of evil was an enjoyable experience, even with all of the gimmicks presented throughout the journey. Replayability is encouraged with various difficulty options, though I’m unlikely to play through it again. I would, however, love to experience the rest of the Holy Kingdom of Keidas in a sequel to Soulstice! This game is a good first step, but it will be up to future entries to refine the experience into the series it could become.

Oct 10, 2022Though it may seem like an homage to the famous Japanese title, Soulstice is an action game with its own interpretation of the genre and gives a different type of joy. Its splendid visual and crisp action control enhance the overall experience. However, dizzy and limited point of views with repetitive backgrounds are the ones that hinder the immersion.
