I will start out by saying I am new to the Action RPG genre, and having little to no experience in the genre I rather enjoyed my time playing Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem. Before starting I saw the mixed reviews and was not sure what to expect, but right from the early going I was delightfully surprised to like and even be impressed with many aspects of the game. The game play was fun and I was kept mostly engaged throughout the story. Wolcen isn't the most challenging game even on the harder mode, but I didn't find this to be a drawback. The end game does become repetitive but still offers ways to up the challenge. The combat was solid and even in the end game it was still fun mowing down endless hordes of enemies. There are many enemy types and some have a really cool design to them which helps keep the game fresh. There are many types of weapons and spells to choose which all can be tweaked to your own liking to better suit your build. The perk tree is massive but doesn't feel overwhelming, you can even rotate the perk tree to allow even more customization to your character. You can make some really OP builds and there are a lot of possibilities. I enjoyed the story even if it was a little cliche and predictable, but it had some depth to it and was on the longer side. Some parts of the story were hard to follow but still in the end I was satisfied. The graphics were a strong point of the game. From the cinematic like cut scenes, to the detailed environments and enemies, its a pretty game. The music suited the game nicely and added to the medieval feel of the game. There were some parts of the game that reminded me of The Lord of the Rings which I thought was cool.

That being said there were some aspects of the game that were inconsistent and held the game back. The game lacked polish in areas, there were some graphical glitches and audio glitches but nothing too severe. On occasions a piece of loot could not be picked up off the ground. I did experience infrequent crashing though the game did a good job of keeping your progress. Some parts of the game like the hub area and project map felt a tad bleak and lifeless. There is an online component to the game with an related achievement that allows you to play Co-op, but that feature will be removed September 17th, 2024. The price is fair for the quantity and quality of the product, though there are games in the genre that are free and many would argue better games. However these negatives weren't enough to deter me from liking the game and my time playing it. Wolcen might not be winning any awards for best in category but I still thought it was a good game and one I would recommend.
