    The combat is okay. The rest of the game is horrid. This game competes with gollum for worst game of the year.

    Finished it on hard as recommended by the developers and really disappointed.

    You basically fight against a handful of minibosses over and over again throughout the whole game, all coming with excessive mob support to make the fights as chaotic and stressful as possible. Tedious gameplay loop, terrible enemy art design and tons of boring npc dialogue to click through. Surge was a

    Surge was a cool gory soulslike but this is a stupid button masher lacking any style.

    The more time I spent with Atlas Fallen, the more its cracks became harder to ignore. Its combat system is sorely lacking, the story is entirely uninteresting and poorly told, and the whole experience has an unpolished quality to it. Perhaps Deck13 ought to give the soulslike thing another go.

    Atlas Fallen does not invent the wheel, but it has a good level in almost all its sections, and bets on a charismatic fictional universe (with potential for a sequel). If you like hack and slash, action-RPGs or the rarities of the PS3 and Xbox 360 generation, here is one of the surprises of the year.

    Atlas Fallen does some things right as a new franchise, the world that the team has made is interesting and begs to be explored, the story is for the most part extremely well told and as I said graphically the game looks great. But the unevenness of the combat just makes avoiding fights more common than facing enemies head on. Which is truly a shame because as I said above, I love action games and had high hopes that Atlas Fallen would stick the landing. I am hoping this is something that can be fixed with a patch, because I did enjoy skating around the sands and exploring the massive levels.
