    literally an indie game at the price of a AAA. To be honest, its really really really turn off when studios like these, whom are indie AF release a game at the price of a AAA, picture Outlast, when it came out its price wasn't big. it was 19.99$ for a well done indie game which then became a must have. this game is 49.99$... like, seriously? are you really gonna pull a No man sky?

    As a mexican gamer I am begging you to stop marketing this awful game as the greatest game to come out of latin america. This game is taking a beating in every trusted review out there yet somehow the devs seem to be in denial about how bad this game really is.

    So to you gamers: As someone above me said just watch a couple of videos before you sink money into this **** And to you    As a mexican gamer I am begging you to stop marketing this awful game as the greatest game to come out of latin america.

    Trash game. Stiff animations. 50 dollars for this? Hot garbage. Buy it used for less then 10 bucks and be prepared for ps1 style graphics.

    I was really excited about this one, but there are a lot of issues that need to be addressed. The characters are based on popular horror classic, but there is not a single twist on them, like Darkstalker does. There's also no ambient lighting, so even if there's fire in the background, there isn't any change on the character's model, making it look like a PS2 game. The VFX are really blandI was really excited about this one, but there are a lot of issues that need to be addressed.

The VFX are really bland and the attacks don't have the right pacing, so it feels like I'm punching the air.
    Now, as far as the online mode goes: it's day one and there are no players online. In fact, I had to play against the devs at some point. If your opponent has a bad connection, the game becomes unplayable.    … Expand

    Borrowed this game from a friend just to check if it was as bad as a few friends told me it was. It most definitely was, Some of the fake reviews here will have you believe the bad reception of this game is due to being catered to "hardcore fighting gamers" only, but as one of those gamers let me tell you this game is far from hardcore.

    It plays like an unfinished game made by some highschoolers for a school project. It looks like it was made for PS2. The online is totally dead.

    Please borrow it or play teh demo before sinking 49 usd into this.    … Expand

    Luckily Zmart was kind enough to let me exchange the product for a real game. Apparently other people are also trying to return their copies and the store is already selling the at a 15% discount, 2 days after release, so I guess I wasnt the only one who did not enjoy it.    … Expand

    Bad graphics, buggy gameplay, long loading times, boring story, no people to play with online. All for the small price of 45 usd. Would not recommend.

    I don't care about this game, to be honest. I'm giving it a bad review because the devs are childish incompetent idiots. Hope the game flops hard. Don't buy it and support this trash studio.

    This is a mess of a fighting game. Sure the concept is cool, using horror movie and mythology figures as characters to fight it out, but this one just plays like crap. The movement is clunky, the sound is atrocious, and the combat system as a whole just lacks everything that makes a fighting game enjoyable. I think I'll save my money and buy some Count Chocula, that's something horrorThis is a mess of a fighting game.

    Cash grab by devs. They made a lot of promises and didn't deliver. More than half of the original team gone after the initial launch, buggy launch btw.

    Omen of Sorrow have quite a good gameplay, but the initial roster is limited, as are the game modes.

    Omen of Sorrow tries to deliver a compelling fighting game with multiple characters from horror stories and movies. Unfortunately, the game does not succeed. It has too few characters, is way too easy and it is simply too slow.

    It's great to see a new "contenter" in a category of games occupied by giants. Omen of Sorrow is by no means a perfect game, but what it tries to do it does it right and it paves the way for AOne games to become a major player in the genre.
