    Game is poop. First person shooter that runs like turds. AI just comes at you with the same 5 different types of enemies. Explosions are laughable bad. A good demonstration of screen tearing. Sony needs to do some quality controls on junk like this.

    Game is AWFUL. First person shooter that runs like my nan. Pathetic excuse for a game. AI just comes at you with the same 5 different types of enemies. Explosions are the worst I've ever seen in a game.

    This game was one of the most awful experience in my gaming life.It's like those sample games made by an amateur in Unity game engine.Graphic is terrible,Sound is terrible,Details are terrible...Even it has some problems in randomizing the villains spawn places.Orc Slayer doesn't even worth a Cent.

    Чисто поугарать можно взять, да и платину забрать. Предрасположение как к действительно игре поставить невозможно.

    Game is literally terrible. The game has very poor graphics, and it feels very unresponsive. The only thing that is a positive with it is the trophies. However, some battles takes way too long to complete, and there is no other reason than trophies to play this game.

    ORC SLAYER is terrible. The graphics is like PS2 era game and that's being generous. The gameplay is so choppy and the hit detection is off the charts. There is no thought put into this game and the only reason why people buy it is for the trophies.

    Played it for the easy platinum...was still disappointed. This game is literally painful to play. It has this weird blend of N64 and PS2 graphics that are actually uncomfortable on the eyes. Yet, even with the outdated graphics and textures it still has major issues with screen tearing and slow down. Aiming is atrocious and was actually uncomfortable for my hands.

Yet, even with the outdated graphics and textures it still has major issues with screen tearing and slow down. Aiming is atrocious and was actually uncomfortable for my hands. I’ve never really experienced that before. Enemies are a bunch of regurgitated nonsense ranging from moderate annoyance to massive annoyance. The gameplay and skill tree are completely uninspired. I can’t think of anything positive to say about the game to be honest. Gave it a 1/10 because it did “function” as a game. To me a 0/10 is literally unplayable. This gets pretty darn close. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is good espically for the price the only problem I have is the aiming. It tends to move to far to fast causing me to aim beside my target. Bot a horrible problem when there is a horde or the infinate defult among but when trying to use fire ammo I tend to miss if there is not a hord.this is not ment to be a hard core serious game it's cheap for a reason. The ai pathing gets them stuck and exploitable easily. However the towers that magically summon orcs sometimes summon them at the entrance to the small section you cam in to or on the other side in the last small section causing you to back into them without warning. However they done hurt you as much as you would expect. So baically if there was a sensitivity control were I could slow the aim speed some it would be an amazing cheap little game.

    All in all i give it a 7 becuse the aiming is waaaaay to sensitive jumping with the slightest tap and even aimed in it jumps just as much. It would have a 9 for its price if that was fixed .... its playable but make sure you take advantage of the bad pathing of the orcs and keep a look out for those poison mages they can kill you becuse the poison lasts a long time otherwise amazing game.

    If this game was on a Gamecube or a PS2, it would be a fine game. But it's not a PS2 game, It's a PS4 game from 2016!
    The trophies are really easy to get however, so if you want to flex your achievements, I guess this game is for you.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What can I say. One word covers this. Impeccable. Breath of the Wild has done somethiing the industry og gaming have never dared to venture into too far. Openworld. And to think that i came upon by accident. My kid name Timmah requested the purchase of this game on wish after reading some yahoo reviews and I seeing nothing wrong bought it for banging bargain of £420.69, an absolute steal. Esty was selling the bad boy for £2000! A few months later, My kid appeared after 5 years at the doorstep game hand clenched for within and screamed...

    Orc Slayer is an embarrassment. Aside from an absolute gimme of a platinum trophy, this is marginally less good than the Zika virus.

    Most damning, however, is that there’s nothing that actually saves Orc Slayer. There’s no real attempt to even do something interesting, different, or creative. This is a game that actively sets out to be a generic FPS with a medieval humans-vs-orcs theme. It doesn’t even try to be a good one. The developers know, surely, that the game isn’t remotely competitive with the better examples of the genre – even in the indie FPS space. That they clearly didn’t care enough about the player to try and do something even slightly different is an absolute insult, and the fact it can’t even get the basics of the genre down means that it deserves no respect from anyone.

    This game clearly wasn’t optimized for the PS4. Nothing about this game should be challenging the PS4’s hardware to this extent so I’m clueless as to why this game performs as badly as it does. Overall I would say this is one to avoid.
