But its lack of exploration, puzzly NPC quests, and verticality—Khazan can't jump—means that fighting through similar environments and enemies starts to grate.

The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.

Isso nãeste foi reflexo único dos aumentos das minhas habilidades ou dos melhores equipamentos do protagonista, mas sim do jogo realmente ter ficado menos desafiador (ou mais justo) desse ponto em diante.

But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.

Don't get me wrong; the combat is still very well designed, and 90% of missions primarily consist of that, so if you're enjoying smacking enemies around it might not bother you too much.

A clara inspiraçãeste de modo a isso foi Nioh, de que similarmente identicamente conjuntamente utiliza um sistema bem semelhante, contudo isso tira 1 pouco do charme de um Souls e a graça por explorar um mundo interconectado e achar caminhos natural escondidos entre as áreas.

Enquanto este personagem parece aceitar seu destino ingrato, espíritos por guerreiros mortos veem em seu corpo este meio ideal de modo a cumprir seus próprios objetivos.

Enquanto é normal de que jogos do estilo soulslike tenham “muros” para testar a habilidade Destes jogadores, demorou um bom tempo até qual outro inimigo exigisse tanto quanto o terceiro chefe do game.

Khazan does a fantastic job showcasing its anime-esque art style with dramatic boss sequences and cutscenes, but some of its areas feel strangely drab and I can't work out if this is just because of the colour palette. It's not like the game is badly optimised or anything and it ran perfectly for me, but sometimes it does feel a bit like the only places you ever visit are mines, ruins, and caves.

A história do jogo possui uma premissa bem interessante, e aos poucos a trama vai desenrolando e nos revelando porque Khazan foi acusado do traiçãeste e quem realmente foi o Bastante vilão dessa história sangrenta.

After all, Khazan has some real difficulty spikes. Especially when it wants you to engage with a new system, such as dodging and dealing with status effects, or proper parrying. Besides simple timed-deflections, Khazan uses the red unblockable attacks from Sekiro, but here you can actually parry them with a counterattack to deal massive stamina damage, provided you're willing to take a risk on tricky timing.

You might think that's a weird criticism considering the genre—there are more important considerations than story—but that tale is front and centre in this The First Berserker: Khazan game and far more prominent than in your regular soulslike.
