Probably one of the best entry level Soulslike games on the market, game is pretty easy, most enemy attacks are very telegraphed and easily dodgeable. Weapons, enemies and map are pretty interesting. Though one of the biggest problems in this game, is that the optimisation is absolutely horrible, had to take settings down to medium to have consistent framerate, some areas in the game drop from 80/90 fps to 60/50. If Vsync is turned on (For example 60FPS) expect the game to suffer insane lags, dropping to 30 frames, which for a souls game is a big no no. Another thing I notice in this game, is that almost every single alley or street is locked, making you walk around the map back and forth and around just to get to an objective, which takes you to a boss fight, and it goes like that for the rest of the game, which honestly gets very annoying after some time.
In my opinion this game is a strong 7/10, mainly because of the optimisation, repetitiveness and game not being challenging enough

Good soulslike game. Nothing rly special, except for art and setting.
- Graphics looks decent
- story semi interesting
- good weapon variety, albeit I used only 3 weapons through whole game
- difficulty was a bit off, sometimes too easy
- game was definitely too long for what it was
- no major bugs
7.5/10

Promising Concept, Disappointing Execution.

Rating: 2/10

I had high hopes for Steelrising given its unique premise and intriguing setting, but unfortunately, the game falls.

First and foremost, the combat system is incredibly clunky and unresponsive. It feels like the developers prioritized flashy animations over functional mechanics, leading to frustrating encounters where I felt more at the mercy of the game's controls than the actual enemies. The hit detection is inconsistent, and the lack of fluidity in movements makes every fight a chore rather than a thrill.

Graphically, the game is a mixed bag. While some environments are beautifully detailed, others are bland and repetitive. There are also numerous technical issues, such as frequent frame rate drops and texture pop-ins, which severely hamper the overall experience.



Overall, Steelrising had the potential to be a standout title in the action-RPG genre, but it fails to deliver on almost every front. Unless significant updates are made to address these issues, I can't recommend this game to anyone.
