This had to potential to be a truly astounding hack-‘n-slash, but, ironically, its Metal Gear DNA stops it from reaching the exorbitant highs it could have easily reached! Whenever the game has to stop it’s anime ridiculousness to vainly and superficially preach on the dangers of systematic war, it does so with none of the flair and elegance that Kojima could (at times) pull off. Here, it just feels awkward and out of place. But still, that combat system is quite a delicacy.
This game couldve been so great. Its basically an insane anime. The combat is deep and unique and the animations are awesome, the characters and plot really grabbed me. But it doesnt explain the combat at all. Its probably got a lot to do with me never normally playing this style of game but I felt like I was battering my head against a wall trying to figure out the combat systems. The bosses have good unique mechanics and are a great challenge, but it was really frustrating since I had no guidance on the nuances of the combat. That said the payoff of figuring it out and beating the game almost made up for it. I’m sure if youre more experienced with these types of fighters itll be a much smoother journey.
