But the story and acting were pretty god tier for its time. I just finished it. Its a really solid 8/10 game, and I appreciated how lean it is for an open world game. No filler bullshit to waste your time or distract you, its all just main story content. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 4,199 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Finished Eden Genesis. I liked the game quite a bit but the controls never quite felt as snappy and responsive as they should have been (especially noticeable in the levels with more demanding platforming challenges), and its definitely overpriced at $25. 7.5/10 1 Link to post Share on other sites

GS for example gave it a 6 I think it’s because it didn’t have the impact of the original game. I’m sure some parts feel dated. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah the combat is pretty clunky, but its clunky in most other open world games with shooting mechanics. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Picture the Resident Evil mansion, with the best level design/puzzle interconnectivity. Each set of mysteries have a pattern, much like bosses in a Souls game. One you master them, you unlock shortcuts and secret areas, which lead to even more brain teasers. Add a touch of David Lynch’s dark and bizarre “wtf?” moments, and that still doesn’t even full express how awesome it is. Link to post Share on other sites

Cause that's sort of what I assume when I hear Dark Souls puzzle game lol. I love puzzle games but not where I end up always having to look up a guide because the solutions are so obtuse.

They are hard, but fair. Just make sure to keep a pen and paper and a maybe a camera phone near by. Yes, the game logs your discoveries. However, I like noting symbols or numbers in certain areas, so I’m not backtracking like crazy. also, some riddles will have you deciphering codes or images. Link to post Share on other sites

As long as they are fair I'm ok with. Just hated some of the more old school adventure games where solutions are beyond ridiculous lol Will try check it out some time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Once you figure out a pattern of puzzles, you’ll knock out a bunch, until the next moment you get stumped. edit: actually, some puzzles that seem obtuse are just meant to be solved later on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
