Dark Days : Devil Hunt

Someone's low budget attempt to mash together God of War, Dark Souls and The Witcher. Unfortunately, the controls are a mess, it's floaty and buggy and your button mashing will result in you floating all over the place and clipping through things. There's a bunch of different weapons but they all function the same and hit detection and movement are so poor that you'll just be swinging wildly anyway. I got as far as a boss fight against a demon who fell through the floor at 90%. That felt like as good a place to call it quits as any. Despite the "Mavi Game Studios", this is the same developer who did Story of the Olivia which was also a buggy mess made in the same game engine. The dev says he has pages of story for the game and I believe him -- you can tell that someone was trying to tell some sort of story -- but without a functional framework to experience it in, no can actually learn what the story was.

Despite popular belief, Dark Days: Devil Hunt is an amazing piece of pure art. The story is a true masterpiece that could rival the likes of Roller Coaster Tycoon World and Redfall. The game is heavily inspired by the Fromsoft line of games and they really paid tributes to those stories and worlds. The gameplay is amazing, the controls are excellent, the combat is splendid, and the leveling system is the best I've seen. I absolutely adored how they made each and every enemy virtually invincible to the player, making the intro sequence so good, I had to quit. Each enemies design is exquisite and unique, like the goblin with the sword, the goblin with the hammer, and of course, the Golem. Each one of these three have a distinct moveset and purpose. The spell system is amazing, each spell making a unique event occur. I personally think that the controls for the game are amazing as well, like using the numbers on the keyboard for spells. The world building is great in thi...

absolute masterpiece
