    Very weak plot/world, good base gameplay but poorly implemented/ underutilized, overall a letdown.

    Great idea, poor execution. Decent characters and dialogue, but story gets a bit bland. Gameplay has a solid base (standard combo punch-em-up) but was boring and repetitive. Enemies aren't very smart, have little variety, and were overly spongy in later stages. By the end I was just spamming the same super move back-to-back hoping it would be over soon.

    Отличная интересная игра с крутой боевой системой в духе слешеров. Приятная игра.

    Being a niche product, it couldn’t be given a triple-A budget and it shows in its humble scope and the dodgy localization. But the solid gameplay foundation and its charming characters won me over.
    Both fans of beat 'em ups and JRPGs should have quite a good time with Dusk Diver. Yes, it falls on the short side but for the price you’ll find it nowadays, it should be a good investment.

    Es un buen juego, no pone nada nuevo sobre la mesa, pero sinceramente es muy divertido de jugar y visualmente muy bonito, con diseños espectaculares.

    Dusk Diver inevitably invites comparisons to both Persona and Yakuza. Yet this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as while it doesn’t have the thematic aspirations of the former or the writing and attention to detail of the latter, the decent combat and low-key charm make it an overall pleasant experience that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Just keep in mind that it is very much cotton candy instead of a full-course meal.

    We are facing a title that offers a particularly simple experience. Although those who have played similar titles might feel disappointed, however if we do not pay more attention to the story, the game flows and has fun without major difficulties. It is worth giving a chance to this pioneering game of Chinese industry.

    Dusk Diver struggles to make a memorable impact due to its story and gameplay failings. This is not helped by its technical issues. Nevertheless, despite its blandness, there is some charisma beneath the surface thanks to a memorable supporting cast and a clear sense of passion in its world's conception. It's difficult to recommend it, but for those who do give it a go, there is a noteworthy personality here that keeps things ticking.
