    Trust me: the people rating this game ZERO for keyboard optimization are REALLY sus and they probably never have a chance of beating Lu Bu anyway. Go away.

    Im Playing on PS5 and so far enjoying it, even if it does have a high difficulty curve (the first boss is a pain)

    Probably should have just been called Nioh 3 though 8.5/10

    Great combat system wtih counter attacks, deflect, the wizardry spells were very useful. Great souls-like game, like the Nioh games. The boss fights were not that demanding, only the fight with Lu Bu was very annoying. Although the track of achievemnets kinda buggy unfortunately. Mouse and Keyboard support still not some work though. 100% completion took 37 hours of playtime. As a gamepassGreat combat system wtih counter attacks, deflect, the wizardry spells were very useful.

    Story is ok what makes it interesting is all the refferences to Chinesse historical figures mixed with fantasy, the combat is perfect and great balance of dept and fun, and it really has so many convinient things that other games of the genre avoid for some reason like infinity resets of all yoour skill points.

    As a fan of the "Souls" games and particularly the "Nioh" saga, I had high expectations for this game. The gameplay is very satisfying, and the character building is complex and in-depth (just like in Nioh), but as always, the storytelling is a bit of a mess.

    Certainly, it's much "easier" compared to Nioh, with the new mechanic for deflecting attacks making the gameplay faster and more

    Certainly, it's much "easier" compared to Nioh, with the new mechanic for deflecting attacks making the gameplay faster and more hack-and-slash oriented. Many complain about the poor optimization, but personally, with my [GTX1080 / Intel E5-1680 (4.4ghz OC) / 32GB DDR4] setup, I managed to play at a stable 60fps by lowering the graphics settings to minimum and making some tweaks with Nvidia software. Fortunately, Team Ninja is releasing patches to improve the situation.

    I recommend everyone to give it a try, and it absolutely should be played with a controller!

    As others have said, its the sekiro of the nioh series. Sadly the story and more specifically the storytelling is a big mess. Nioh was already confusing but with a bit of research you could get a grip on it. This is just insane. Allies becoming enemies in 1 mission. Next mission they are back to being allies. Crazy mcguffins left and right and so on.
    The game is fairly challenging but not

    The game is fairly challenging but not as hard as the souls games and way wayyyy easier than sekiro. The rpg elements are satisfying and the forgiving crafting and respec system lets you change builds on a whim.

    The Morale system has been implemented really well, basically you can adjust the difficulty as you please. Game too easy? Fight with less morale. Game too difficulty? Fight with max morale, also get some friends to help you out! Also the level up cap is very generous. Love this game!

    As for me game feels like interesting collaboration between Nioh and Sekiro. By Nioh part i mean loot system kinda similar to ARPG like POE Diablo and etc. where you can get several similar base item with different substats spells and so on. By Seciro part i mean a stamina system and parry based battle system.

So as for me this cocktail of both game work really good (i'm surprised that alot of people think opposite).I read a lot of negative reviews and i have one question did you even read what this game say to you? but probably at first few hour i also doesn't read and tried just to rush and panic roll the first boss but that doesn't work. And that the main reason why first boss so hard for most people i think devs maked it so hard (in case if player dont wanna parry his attack) to make player understand timing of attack, teach player how to parry, and understand main philosophy of the gameI say it this way because if you embrace it and start playing with the parry mechanic (I think it's only needed for a few bosses, to be honest), the game seems a lot easier than Elden Ring or the Souls games. But lets talk about other aspects of the game it has good sound and graphical parts - it looks and sound kinda pretty in chinese art style. Another aspect that cath me fo several hour is blacksmithing you can reforge your weapons increase it stats change substats and eveen transfer look of the other weapons to your favourite one. Plot is also kinda ok (cuz i don't got it XD) some thing about friendship power that can beat even world evil. As a conclusion it's great game for someone who enjoyed souls like games / nioh and ARPGs. Just try that game (if you didn't) and if you beat first boss you probably complete all game without any difficulty. Expand

    Souls açlığıma bir süre iyi gelecek oyun oldu. Sekiro gibi parry'ye dayalı olsa da mekanikler onun kadar keskin olmadığı, oyun da onun kadar zor değil. Ama yeterince tatmin ediyor.

    Souls açlığıma bir süre iyi gelecek oyun oldu. Sekiro gibi parry'ye dayalı olsa da mekanikler onun kadar keskin olmadığı, oyun da onun kadar zor değil. Ama yeterince tatmin ediyor.

    Souls oyunlarına getirdiği bazı yenilikler var. Bunlardan ilki, genele bir level'ınız bulunduğu gibi, bir de her bölüme geçtiğinizde sıfırlanan bir moral seviyeniz var. Bu moral seviyesi düşman öldürdükçe artıyor ancak siz ölünce de düşüyor. Düştüğü minimum sayıyı artırmak için haritadaki bayrakları bulmanız gerekiyor. Bu bayrakların bir kısmı bonfire işlevi de görüyor. Bir bölümdeki moraliniz en fazla 25 olurken, bulduğunuz bayraklarla düşme seviyesini 20'ye kadar çıkarabiliyorsunuz. Bence her yeri keşfi teşvik eden güzel bir yenilik olmuş.

    Oyunda ruh seviyeniz var. Bu ruh, özel yetenekleriniz, büyüleriniz ve parry'leriniz ile artıyor. Stamina gibi ama biraz farklı. Mana ile birleşmiş gibi. Bu bar tamamen dolunca karakteriniz bir süre hareketsiz kalıyor ve saldırılara açık hale geliyor. Düşmanınıza hasar vererek, saldırılarını geri püskürterek siz de onun barını doldurup savunmasız hale getirebilir ve öldürücü vuruşu yapabilirsiniz. Boss savaşlarında çok işe yarıyor. Direkt tek atmıyor ama epey can götürüyor.

    Oyunda büyüler var ama bana çok işlevsel gelmedi. Birçoğu gereksiz. Benim en çok kullandıklarım silahınıza elektrik veren büyü ile hasar verdikçe canınızı artıran büyü. Özellikle ikincisi sayesinde büyücü olan ve yanına 20 tane kendisinden spawn'layan boss'u geçtim.

    Oyun ortalarına kadar çok ilgi çekici gitse de özellikle son çeyreğinde hafif sıkıyor. Bunun en önemli nedeni artık hiç yeni düşman tipi gelmemesi ve çevrenin çok tekrar etmesi. Hep aynı düşmanları, benzer yerlerde öldürmek sıkıyor. Ancak boss'lar için aynısını söyleyemem. Birbirlerinden çok farklı boss çeşitleri var. Çoğu da gayet tatmin edici. İki boss'la kapıştığımız ve birinin diğerini silah olarak kullandığı savaş epey farklıydı mesela. Ama boss savaşları genel olarak kolaydı, bazısını tekte geçtim. 1-2 tanesinde bir saat uğraştım.

    İlk defa bir souls oyununda kargı benzeri bir silah kullandım. Oldukça da keyif aldım.

    Yapımcı Nioh'taki loot ameleliğini aynen devam ettirmiş. Hatta bir kaç yerde envanterim doldu. Bir de onları satmakla uğraştım.

    Bölüm tasarımları bence gayet iyi. Küçük haritalar, keşfedilebilir yerler var. Elbette From Software oyunları kadar iyi dizayn edilmiş değiller ama dümdüz koridorda da gitmiyorsun sonuçta. İnsanı yormayan, keşfi teşvik eden ve bunu ödüllendiren bir dizayn benimsemişler. Nereye gideceğim demiyorsunuz. İyi bir denge tutturmuşlar.

    Hikaye gereği yanınızda 1-2 npc sizinle beraber savaşıyor. Düşmanın ilgisini çekmek dışında bir işe yaradıkları söylenemez.

    Neticede 26 saat oynadığım, son çeyreği hariç gayet keyif aldığım, düşman çeşitliliği yetersiz olduğu için başyapıt olma fırsatını kaçırmış bir oyun olmuş.

    + Weapon/armor upgrade system is well done, you can salvage looted armors and weapons to get upgrade materials as well
    + Embedding is pretty cheap, being able to get supplies from battle flags is also helpful
    + Wizardry spells are meaningful but not super OP. You still need stamina to cast them, which means you have to actively attack the enemy at the same time. It encourages a mixed combat where you parry, use martial arts, attack and use your spells at the same time.

    - Enemy variety is shallow
    - Morale system is masterfully done, encourages you to explore the map, however caveat here is the lack of enemy variety which makes the morale grinding a bore, which ends up making the morale system also a bore
    - Most bosses are not memorable and unique and a certain pattern of "oh, your friend is now your enemy because of this evil demonic arrow" is used TOO much
    - Story is too convoluted/uninteresting. Also, a certain pattern of "oh, you were looking for the Elixir but someone stole it and run away" is used TOO much

    Overall a fun but forgettable game. 82/100

    已经有段时间没有玩到这么带感动作游戏了,卧龙无疑是我近期体验最爽快的动作游戏,年初速通了仁王也是为了更了解这部游戏,实际上开始游戏时也确实是很浓的仁王味,开头就是争夺丹药,下一个镜头出现伦敦塔都不奇怪了,剧情的发展也毫无悬念,玩家扮演的义勇军侠客帮助各位三国知名豪杰战胜妖魔最后战胜黑暗道士的故事确实很好猜。已经有段时间没有玩到这么带感动作游戏了,卧龙无疑是我近期体验最爽快的动作游戏,年初速通了仁王也是为了更了解这部游戏,实际上开始游戏时也确实是很浓的仁王味,开头就是争夺丹药,下一个镜头出现伦敦塔都不奇怪了,剧情的发展也毫无悬念,玩家扮演的义勇军侠客帮助各位三国知名豪杰战胜妖魔最后战胜黑暗道士的故事确实很好猜。

    游戏的战斗系统跟仁王可以说完全不同,化劲系统很好地通过游戏性展现了中华武术的以柔克刚,转守为攻,只要操作得当,马上就可以将致命的杀招化解成优势,在增加自己气势的同时大幅削减地方的气势,每个关卡设计又是动态的气势等级决定玩家的攻防属性,这样就不太会受等级影响太多,装备系统这块依然是按照仁王的路子来的,不过这次完全不需要疯狂更新装备来保证防御值,而是固定好了数值只需要通过强化增强即可,这点非常对肝非常友好,不需要频繁更替装备。游戏的战斗系统在前期基本上就能全部解锁,在熟悉了系统之后马上就能快速上手,这作的中华要素非常多,中国的“五行”也在游戏中通过属性的相生相克来展现,比如身上着火时只需要释放“水行”的奇术就能以水克火消掉异常状态,玩起来的时候特别有意思。

    夸了这么多接下来说几个缺点,首先是画面依然比较跟不上时代,技术方面也是,没有常见的DLSS技术就算了,就连顶级旗舰显卡4090也会掉帧,还有时不时出现的闪屏也有点恼人,好在没在首领战的时候出现掉帧的情况,这点就姑且放过,关卡设计也没有什么长进,依然是很线性的扁平地图,在我的公式化推图下毫无难度可言,支线任务更是滥竽充数的地图重复利用,虽然长度缩减了不像仁王那样又臭又长,但跟主线比较支线还是很粗糙。美术这块场景跟仁王非常相似,因为题材相似度极高,有些贴图素材看着就像是仁王那直接挪过来的,人物美术这块就很满足了,个人最爱的吕布,造型壮硕帅气,让人一眼心动,然后就是早早出场的红晶了,果然日厂的女性模型从未让人失望,在政治正确横行的今天看着舒适又养眼。

    《卧龙:苍天陨落》以仁王为基底,大幅改动了其动作系统,融合了大量中华武术以及中国古代元素等设定让游戏充满特色,虽然优化问题依然需要修复,但游戏素质本身即优秀,所以大醇小疵。

    Overall the game is super fun with a simple story and pretty but the PC port is far from perfect.
    My only issue is that It crashes pretty often, but regardless of these issues, the game is still 9/10 for me.
    Most of these negative comments are about the PC port or the difficulties with the mouse/keyboard.
    I am sure that they will resolve these issues quickly and the reviews will turn positive.

The story isn't anything ground breaking, but the gameplay is a fantastic blend of Dark Souls, Sekiro, and Nioh. Unfortunately it only rarely treads into the Sekiro territory during the Lu Bu boss fight, and in the final fight. I think if it had stuck more to that premise, and kept a more consistent difficulty curve, it could have been something truly memorable. That said I still think this is a very good game, and would gladly recommend it to anyone who enjoys skillful action games, and/or the Three Kingdoms setting. Expand

    An average mix of Nioh & Sekiro that comes nowhere near the quality of its peers. Main takeaways:

    - combat can be fun but just like Sekiro - there's only one right way to play, not much room for different styles & builds. - boss fights are cool and interesting visually - presentation looks early PS4 era, worse than Nioh 1 - story is pure trash - it's confusing / nonsensical, badly

    - level design is bland and uninspired, with little in way of worldbuilding or sense of discovery
    - there's a lot of loot and RPG mechanics, but most of it feels meaningless, with little impact on gameplay (no matter your build & gear it's a parry-counter game)
    -game's cleary made on a smaller budget: production values, enemy variety, weapon/armor/gear & environmental design all suffer
    - halfway through the only reason to keep playing are the bosses - exploration becomes boring and combat extremely repetitive because you're fighting the same rehashed enemies over & over again

    It's still fun and exciting at times to fight in Wo Long but after Nioh 1 & 2 I expected much more from Team Ninja... and honestly can't they hire a good writer to tell a decent story?

(Souls/EldenRing/Remnant/Code Vein all have functioning control schemes and rebinding....Nioh 2 gives good options & menu swap between m/k or controller icons). And terrible controls issues !!? Dev' just literally implemented the controller's deadzones into the mouse input. If you don't move your mouse fast enough, the camera will not react, regardless of your mouse sensitivity.

    PC gamers have just been insulted and taken for fools for over a year. Between the so-called next-Gen games (and I'm not necessarily looking for the NextGen type, the current generation games are graphically and technically very good in my opinion) and other triple A, poorly optimized, not finished Sold at exorbitant prices which border on the scam (Forspoken was sold for 80USD on PCDigital ?????????? For 20 hours of gamePlay).

    Honestly it has to stop !
    And if it has to go through review bombing and bad publicity, it's very sad, but obviously despite the economic situation, the studios continue to take players for idiots. So yes sorry but 0 to the score on PC (don't known about the final quality product on consoles)

    The game on PC is completely unplayable. Control scheme is jacked up completely with no remapping, game speed is tied to framerate, so if your max framerate is 120 but you drop to 90, you start playing at 75% speed. This is completely abysmal design. Optimization is non-existant. This game is just an absolute pile of trash, and id expect some people to get fired over this embarrassment.

    Pro:
    +Fast and fun basic combat
    +pretty good level design

    con:
    -Terrible loot system and management
    -overwhelming quantity of useless weapon, art, spell and stat that add nothing but confusion to a game that it is mostly base on parry
    -Disappointing and easy boss fight.
    -Anonymous story and character, bland dialogue.

    Just go replay niho 2 or if you want a parry based experience just go replay sekiro

    Unfortunately this game has quite a few issues. Performance is not very good. Graphics are outdated. The mechanics just feel sloppy next to a lot of other souls games. Take my opinion with a grain of salt I didn't love Nioh either. Overall if it's your thing it's a good game it just doesn't have the polish of many AAA titles.

Sure the in cellabits will tell you to get good or 'it not dat hard' , but what really means is lock yourself in dark room , hide away from the world and remain involuntarily celebrate just to beat a game and get clout from noone, not even others that play like this.
    Once again Team Ninja has created amazingly fun combat, beutiful and bad arse characters. But none of that matters if you have a life to live or even just other games to play.. At least FromSoftware games are balanced in a way that your always progressing and actually have a chance with bosses. Where in Team Ninja Souls clones you will definitely hit a point where you will have to quit life or quit the game due to gigantic difficulty spikes.

    Also, the game is confirmed bugged to hell by design. The speed of animations is tied to your FPS causing some enemies to have inconsistent attack speeds.

    Initially my rating was 4 out of 10 because Team Ninja doesn't care about PC users, but they're not ashamed to sell a game without optimisation. They've probably never seen PC and don't know what it is.
    But after a while they released a patch and made some improvements, but by then me and all the other people have already gone through the game and can't tell if anything has changed.

    Despite all this the game itself is fun and dynamic. Surprisingly there's even a not bad story and a bunch of very nice and magical CGI. Nice and atmospheric music.
    There are problems with jumping difficulty that spoils the impression that the final bosses do not represent any difficulty, and on what would be a "Aoye" can spend a dozen tries.
    It's nice that in additional missions there are not only pieces of past locations with mobs, but also the bosses.
    The downsides are there, but overall I liked the game and it was a pretty interesting adventure that ignited my interest in reading the past works of "Team Ninja", namely "Nioh 1" and "Nioh 2", which was a big mistake because I haven't seen anything worse than these games.
    "Team Ninja took 5 steps forward with "Wo Long" compared to the "Nioh" series.

    Good idea releasing a action game that requires timing and have the game perform so poorly that it for many is impossible to time defflections.

    Performance is not the only issue here, as I got to see when my fix for making the game playable still worked, I got to the second last area before the patch "fixed" my performance.
    The moral system, a system that does more harm then good to this game. If you want a challenge and are good the system punish you with making the game easier, if you are bad at the game it punish you by making it harder. This system also undermines the system for leveling.
    The different areas in which missions take place are for the most part ok, some are bad, some are good, and one is so bad it makes me wonder why the devs hate the playerbase.
    Things like the magic and martial arts makes me think that this was either not tested enough or that the devs ignored any and all negative feedback, the cost and risk vs the reward when using them is simply not balanced.

    Still, when the game works as intended the combat is very entertaining.
    If not for the performance issues this would have been a 7 or even 8, but when a game does not work it is a 0.
    Team Ninja, fix your game.

    Wo Long is a bad game; made by amateurs using the skin of previously good games related to it, to disguise it's significant shortcomings.

    I've 100%'d it and beyond and played 175 hours. I have everything, I've done everything. I've experimented extensively with everything. Every spell and skill, all weapons and armors and bonuses, in every mode. I'm the only one I know of who has no-hit the bosses on NG+ legit no cheese and have the final title that comes with that accomplishment. I probably played the game much more than the devs have.

    This game is a lesson in paying attention to the credits to discover who was working on the game and who was not. Since it was made by Team Ninja with significant visual Nioh influence, I figured it would be good. I was significantly disappointed. It seems most of the Nioh team did not work on this game. This feels like the C or D team made Wo Long. This is the director's first title and it massively shows. I feel lied to and taken advantage of. This game is a hollow shell of a real game. It is without substance. The core components are there but this feels like a rushed demo than a real game. Perhaps this was a tech demo game in the same vein as Chaos Legion was for Devil May Cry on the PS2.

    But they did release an actual demo and that is to be commended as demos are a lost action in the games' industry and so incredibly important. I'm very appreciative to the company for that integrity move.

    But I digress, Wo Long is a watered down, aka "streamlined", action game in the vein of Nioh/Ninja Gaiden/Sekiro/and maybe a little Metal Gear Rising Revengeance set in the Three Kingdoms period of ancient China.

    However, the characters and events are there in name only. They are tangential, cursory, barely recognizable and hardly significant. It's a poor excuse of a backdrop to rehash the template of Nioh. Amrita is now Elixir, the MacGuffin of this nonsense. Kelly is now Yu Ji and the protagonist is chasing him for what was stolen just like William did. There are one or two good twists I'll give them that, but one important character relationship is a near direct copy of Otakamaru and Suzuka from Nioh 2. Yuan Shao honestly complains about bonds and laments the power of friendship. It's enough to make you puke with how trite and stupid it is.

    If a computer AI spat out this "story", I would not be surprised at all. Nothing has any impact despite the attempts to. The last stage is a revisit to the first stage, but the character you are supposed to have a bond with only appeared in those two stages and the game acts like it's an epic encounter. No, because obviously we spent zero time with the character we were supposed to care about. It has all the trappings of emotional build up and investment (the music, the stage revisit after time passed, the atmosphere) but falls embarrassingly flat and for obvious reasons that I can't believe they actually tried to pass off. Again, if a computer was programmed to spit this out, I would not be surprised. Beep Boop. Input emotion here. Are you invested? I'm playing the music! Remember this!? Please clap. Hell, they even did something like this in Nioh 2 and it was fairly decent, so AGAIN, with so much taken from Nioh, how did they mess up so bad?

    It's a stolen template without any soul.

    The English voices are terrible but since characters talk while fighting, I kept it in English so I could hear them because gameplay is too intense to read text while in combat, which is always a dumb thing to do in any game. I'm engaged with the combat, why are you having characters talk in the very instance I physically can't pay attention to it. However, the Chinese and Japanese voices seem fine.

    The non-player character designs are not good. Unlike Nioh, it was not gratifying to see famous figures from this legendary setting. Almost no one stood out and I was not excited to see them. This is a great shame because one of the best things about Nioh which took place in Sengoku Japan was wondering whom would surprise you around the corner. And then actually having cool encounters! It was exciting and satisfying. Not so here.

    Even the music is rather bad. Maybe one or two good tracks in the game and I think one or two were taken from Nioh. But the main problem is how much is reused. Too many main levels reuse the same track (snow level and rainy level for example). It makes the game feel cheap and shallow.

    But I will say the game looks good. The effects look good, the sounds are good (when they aren't glitchy -- I had dialogue vanish from a cutscene, return for the next, and vanish again for the following one, except for the nameless grunt soldiers for some inexplicable reason) but it's all in service of bland level design. The game gives you distant vistas in some levels and they look like they are from the PS2 or 3 era. The levels are so boring and uncreative. And t

The second problem is the bosses. The first half of the bosses are elementary bosses that are passing with 1 try, the other is unbeatable monsters that can not be passed, and for the 50 attempts only if you do not clean the entire location, which will give you small advantage over the enemy in the form of higher levels. Bugs were not noticed, it was interesting to play, and investigate the location, too. The plot and characters are interesting only if you are very much interested in the Chinese style, although it is made by the Japanese.

    I was able to get to the second phase multiple times but the pace of the deflects changes drastically. Also the deflect window is inconsistent and the hit boxes for the first boss are obscene, making any dodging impossible. The same is true of the second phase. If it were a single phase I could understand it. I think I will stick to From Soft games. At least there I can find multiple ways to progress.

Insgesamt hatte ich dennoch Spaß mit dem Titel, da ich eine Weile kein Third Person Souls Like gespielt hatte. Meine Hoffnung war ein wenig größer als was mir serviert wurde, aber dennoch über den Gamepass eine gute Zeit gewesen :).

    I've really enjoyed the game so far and the bosses aren't too hard but after 2 to 3 tries they become pretty easy only problem i'd have would be the movement when im trying to get to places.

    - 25 - 35 hour long.

    -very repetitive fun gameplay, unoptimized, little enemy variety for souls games.

    -only very challenging 1st boss and lu bu.

    -good amount of bosses, cute baby pandas and like sekiro gameplay.

    The performance issues from launch seem to be largely gone, making Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty – Complete Edition a much more attractive proposition than perhaps it previously was.

    The name of the game is “parry”. Whatever the problem is, a well-timed parry will save the day. But if you can’t handle parrying mechanic, you’ll lose, no matter what tactics you use and what your equipment is. [page 52]

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is another solid entry from Team Ninja and is a good option for you that wants to try the Soulslike genre for the first time. Deflection/Parry and the Morale System are the two main mechanics in this game, and Team Ninja manages to implement them incredibly well while making them seamless with other aspects in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.
