Saw all the reviews about performance and said to myself "it wont be that bad". It is in fact, that bad.
Wo Long is a fantastic game. It's also a flawed game. Unfortunately its flaws are almost perfectly aligned to its target audience. Hence all the mixed/negative reviews. Are they deserved? Maybe. But that's not the whole picture. First, the good things. Wo Long has hands down one of the best combat systems out there. That's not an exaggeration. Team Ninja did a very smart thing with the spirit gauge. To make you gain spirit with normal attacks and successful deflects, the game removes the usual down time where you have to wait for stamina/ki/spirit to come back. The Nioh games dealt with this problem with ki pulses and anima, but in Wo Long it feels even more fluid. You are constantly making choices in combat about how to gain spirit with attacks and deflects, or how to use your spirit for spells and martial arts. It's one of the most engaging back and forth combat I've played. Deflecti
A good game buried deep beneath the biggest catastrophe of a PC port that I have ever seen. The game runs poorly for how it looks, but the biggest issue are the controls. These developers have learned nothing from nioh and have literally implemented the controller's deadzones into the mouse input. If you don't move your mouse fast enough, the camera will not react, regardless of your mouse sensitivity. I have never seen any developer do this (for good reason) and if you didn't understand what's going on here you might actually think that your mouse is broken. The game is completely unplayable on mouse and keyboard. The key layout is also an absolute joke. This has to be a bad trolling attempt by the devs. Deflect/Dodge bound to Tab by default? Ok then. I know this is a wild idea, but maybe a game should properly support the platform's peripherals on which it is released. Otherwise just m
Performance was never fixed
After having completely finished this game and gotten 100% achievments I'm a bit torn on how to rate it. Having grown up with playing Dynasty Warriors, seeing all those characters I love and getting a new take on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story might skew my perception a bit, but either way, these are my thoughts on Wo Long. First off, Wo Long is a Souls-Like game and Souls-Like games have a reputation as being "difficult". However I wouldn't say that Wo Long is a "difficult" game, and I don't think that's a "good" or a "bad" thing since it's very much a subjective point to make, and it all depends on what YOU specifically are looking for. However when the first boss in the game is the one thing I struggled with the most out of everything else in the game, it not only sets false expectations of what to expect, but it also makes the other bosses feel really unsatisfying and lacki
WOLONG FALLEN FPS - Swing the sword -> fps drop. - Destroy a breakable object -> fps drop. - Move the camera too quickly -> fps drop. - Moving too quickly -> fps drop. - Enter combat -> fps drop. - Enemy do a special attack -> fps drop. - Deathblow a boss -> fps drop + game crash. Overall because of skill issues, I give up on the game.
