Is it really so bad?
Based on what i do read around... the game really is a messy ♥♥♥♥... or almost..

-Few hours of gameplay then, just a "hold the line" horde wave..
-Keys cant be rebind
-Absurd pricetag for the kind of game and features (40€, really? I don't have any issues with paying for good games but i am against wasting money)

Both things are true. It has issues and you can have fun playing it. Have to decide if its worth it to you.

They did mention patching in key rebinding if that helps.

Devil may cry ripoff and nothing bad about that!

Seems like another Dark Alliance. Could be fun but no one is going to play past the first few weeks. Then a way to late DLC brings a few people back but it will already be over.

Biggest mistake is the pricetag. Even if there is offline solo you can tell the game is not made for it.

Your review was terrible man. Give some damn context at least. This is the problem with Steam reviews...

Agreed. A co-op DMC and not as cringy. Nothing to complain about, but probably not as deep as many people would expect.

It's an arcadey game, feels like a modern beat'em up on the hack'n slash line, so replayability is mostly for fun, not to be rewarded by systems (as in deep permanent progression).

The BIG problem with steam reviews is that it became a race to find the funniest phrase to scrounge up awards. And very often they have nothing to do with a real opinion on the game.
Steam points have literally ruined the credibility of the reviews system.

Can't argue with that point

Game is a fun coop for about 10-12 hours tops. Not worth the price unless on sale 50% off. There is just no content. 9 missions, 1 spammable boss battle, horde mode, boss mode. I played with friends, fully unlocked every skills/ability before starting act 2 by spamming act 1 boss missions. There is no reason to keep playing past the first few hours. I could level up the other characters but my team liked who they picked. There is no replayability currently. Not worth costumes either because your literally only going to use them for 2 hours.

At this point- FULL CASH GRAB (opinion)
At a future date- IF CONTENT/REPLAYABILITY CHANGES then not as much a cash grab, just a game that had no content at launch.

(To be transparent, I did get a copy of this game for free, and its an amazing 12 hour experience. Worth trying 100% at one point. Pick your price. The art style and theme of this game makes me badly want more, it just doesn't exist.)

Needs loot loop, needs gear to upgrade, needs to be longer than 10 hours.

At least D&D Dark Alliance is :poophappy: in comparison.
This one is waaaay better.

190 hours in Suicide Squad completely invalidate your opinion.
