The First Berserker: Khazan - Uma visão geral

Do you remember the moment that Sekiro forced you to start playing by its rules? For me, I was trundling through the game like I was playing Dark Souls when I hit the Lady Butterfly boss, and suddenly there was no room for doubt: if I didn't properly learn these new combat mechanics, I wasn't going any further.

The First Berserker: Khazan is a cel-shaded soulslike set in the long-running Dungeon Fighter Online universe. You play as Khazan; a celebrated general renowned for defeating the "Berserk Dragon" (just in case you were in doubt this is effectively anime), now exiled and mutilated by a court of jealous nobles.

Isso nãeste foi reflexo único Destes aumentos das minhas habilidades ou dos melhores equipamentos do protagonista, contudo sim do game realmente deter ficado menos desafiador (ou Muito 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.

It's something I've always admired about Sekiro—how it pits you against bosses that force you to engage with its systems.

Its three weapons—a dual-wield sword and axe, a glaive-like spear, and a greatsword—each have dedicated skill trees, and its armour uses the same bonus system when equipping multiple pieces from a set.

Vejo isso Ainda mais como uma decisãeste de modo a facilitar o desenvolvimento, já qual fazer um mapa completo da amplamente mais manejorefregatráfego, contudo junte isso ao fato de qual as armas são drops aleatórios do inimigos e este ímpeto por explorar diminui bastante, com um Colossal impacto até mesmo na atmosfera global 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.

Since skills don't consume stamina, you use them to supplement attacking and defending like little cheats, letting you throw out combos almost like The First Berserker: Khazan a fighting game to deal as much damage as you can in a short window.

Unlike Black Myth: Wukong, Khazan doesn't feel like a game you can brute force. But for those who are willing to engage, it has some of the best designed bosses I've seen in a soulslike, and rewards you for smart play.

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.

Another way Khazan encourages these experiments is with pelo respec costs for skills. If something isn't working, change your entire build right outside the boss door.

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 game and far more prominent than in your regular soulslike.
