    The Dark Alliance revival lacks finesse, and local co-op, but give it time and it's not without its own charms.

    Finished the game. Played with random's and friends. Got the full experience playing slowly and explored everywhere. I just can't get into theFinished the game. Played with random's and friends. Got the full experience playing slowly and explored everywhere. I just can't get into the D&D series anymore like I did with Baldurs Gate. Hardly any of the controls and mechanics work. The online is frustrating and unbearable at times. Animations and Graphics are sloppy. Boss and Enemy AI is hit and miss. I tuned out for most of the story, it felt like I was missing crucial info or context to it all. Something kept me playing though, hard to pinpoint what. Maybe cause it's on Game Pass. That's about all I would really pay to play this game. I know it's not what some people may have experienced but it was what I went through. Boring, Laggy, Buggy and Ugly.

    * control steering    I mean comeon 0 is if you have a completely unplayable game. but with 1 it is in my opionon fact.
    * very bad controls
    * control steering input lag, the char is movin 1-2-sec along after last input which makes you hit the enemies or fall of the map (ground etc..)
    * very bad cam view
    * played drizz, because of control issues unplayable char
    * ki is super stupid, you can beat every bos while running in a corner and shoot et them, they dont act or if they just slowly following you
    * ki second, you can run through the instances without any harm... lol
    * no story at least i found none

    For me unplayble , unfinished game.
    tested on xbox one x / Gamepass.
    luckily i haven´t payd for it.
    - no recommendation at all -
