@@thegamewin100 ive spent 2 hours just exploring the first section just up to across the gorge right at the beginning. i just learned I can grab hold of the wall to climb up.
I was pretty surprised that there were not only swimming mechanics but also underwater mechanics. I was half expecting the devs doing something like drowning or tell me to get back on land but no, most games would choose to avoid this.
Played the demo, loved it. Order in, I have to say it may sound simple but I loved the satisfying clang of the perfect parry. I have additional support needs and Played on story with combat assist on. Helped me a lot.
This video was so validating for me. The difficulty whiplash at the end is pretty insane, and for the final boss I particular, I had to lower the difficulty, which I never do. I went back later and was able to beat the boss on normal, but it’s still insanely hard.
I'm hearing 35+ hours for people who actually plan on playing the side quests. And if someone actually enjoys the game and wants to spend more time in the game world, they will.
For all the advanced players who want a more fast pace gameplay learn how to do the “Perfect Dash” technique. I made a video on the method to moving wayyyyy faster in the game (which so far isnt being shown anywhere in videos, so definitely check it out). It is not the same as dodge canceling but an addition to it!
@@theancientsam I mean it has it but the input isn’t instant like some other action games allow you, which causes players to turn to a more shielded approach to combat where they rarely circle or out maneuver enemies. The game is actually faster than the demo footage shown here. But the input delay on dashing still remains so the same result on players remain.
The only thing I wish they added would be to add a mission select option after you beat the game. I had one side mission left and didn't know I wouldn't be able to go back after the credits rolled.
I really wasn’t planning to pick up with game day 1 anyone but it definitely looks like a lot of fun overall. Rugrats Adventure In Gameland and Epic Mickey Rebrushed are my two most anticipated games for the rest of this year. I really hope they improve the controls for the latter game. Fingers crossed!
So if we want to platinum the game we going have to play the game multiple times unless we do all side activities first before getting to the no point of return area
Awesome review as always Jor, and thanks for the heads up regarding the point of no return towards the end of the story. I probably would have made the same mistake you did if you hadn't mentioned it. Also I am curious about outfits. Do they all have a single color scheme or can their colors be changed?
Am I missing something? I only fought in the rooftop boss and started over how are we getting these other levels gameplays??????? Like double jump unlock aswell???
I'm not a fan of soulslike, because for health reasons I can't stress too much, too difficult games are not for me, the most difficult game I've ever finished was Hollow Knight, I didn't beat the true ending but still I completed it at 97% if I'm not mistaken, so I have experience in video games, but now for health reasons I avoid the one too stressful. This stellar blade seems really enjoyable to me, if I take breaks between one play I think it won't make me overly stressed, I'm happy to have a story mode for those like me who don't like excessive difficulty.
Literally just finished this game & I totally agree with the last remark. I was way less satisfied than what I’d hoped. Had to go watch the other two endings I got locked out of on UA-cam & just shook my head
As someone who is not great at the soulslike games combat would you say that difficulty spike with those bosses could essentially break the game for me?
If I may.. I myself is not great at soulslike.. but I think and I hope story mode will do its thing but they're right.. try the demo first.. then see if you can.. (I know you can) 😊
I like to say it’s only a soulslike if you play it like a soulslike. This game provides many different ways to play, and gear to enhance those different playstyles. You can already experiment quite a bit in the demo.
thanks for the replies. I have played the demo already and I liked what I saw. Getting the perks to increase parry and dodge window helped but with it I still struggled with the boss. My problem is that my response time is not very fast and I tend to end up responding too slow to respond to attacks or press the wrong buttom in panic. Jedi Fallen Order I have played through and beat it but I would not say I played that game overly well. Really wanted to buy this game but i'm afraid the difficulty spike with the bosses in the end might ruin the game for me if I can't get my skill up by that point
God of War, this, and other especially open world games , the side content is super important to do all of it to get the full experience. Makes them 100X’s better and enjoyable. Not just barely touching them and rushing to the end.
@JorRaptor How do we choose between the three different endings? Also, did you try starting with the demo game save data and where did it start you in the main game?
Back when the game was called Project Eve, it was planned for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. While the game is a PS Exclusive Title, there is hope for Shiftup Studio to port the game to PC. Remember, Nier: Automata was a PS Exclusive Title game before it was eventually ported to PC.
@JorRaptor Great vid!, I always come to your Chanel when there's a new game I'm interested in! Glad stellar blade is one of them! Where do you get the Black Rose outfit from!?? I NEED to know 😂
banishers is my fav game this year. Autosaves all the time so you can go back to pretty much any point, Combat is great when you learn different moves and abilities. Story is actually really good and unpredictable, Side content feels good, exploration is rewarding, no bugs or crashes and.... some how graphics mode has higher FPS than performance mode, plus better visuals. Strange but not complaining! A very good game i definitely recommend, nice to see a fresh IP. We have seen so many of the same titles and ideas in games that it was nice to see a new one
@@Grandtemplar305 yes, why do you ask? (out of curiosity.) also, technically, isnt almost every game rpg? Leaving aside the exceptions of puzzle game. Games where you play as a character that interacts with a world is an RPG GTA is one of the exceptions that isn't labelled as one, but many believe it is an RPG. (i know, this is all very trivial)
Felt quite the opposite for the final bosses finished them all in one night and thought the game was really showing it’s strengths with these fights. The combat is amazing and NG+ is done really well to build even further into your skills to make them stronger, worth running hard mode for that as normal is too easy.
Hm. I think it's better to wait and see if they might announce some Story Expansions later on to add more Content to the Game. Then i think the Game will be more worth to get.
@@afroponix3414 it was the same with hogwarts, you dont have to meet these people to know they exist lol. giving it 60's cause it has hot woman is the most pathetic thing ive ever seen
hogwarts was phenomenal. This game looks great, that yapping group of haters makes up 1% of gamers. Ignore them and you make more profit as weve seen many times
Thanks for the Honesty. I was worried about it becoming to hard and getting stuck and not being able to progress. Sounds like that's a possibility for novice Gamers.
They must be making too much money if they release exclusive What do you all think ? Maybe is shows that they might be overcharging In my logic exclusive does not make commercial sense IMO
probably affiliated with sbi somehow, i think this game is an uno reverse card magic trick they trying to play on us. trying to get us gamers to defend it just because it has attractive girl but the game is also not that good. its like 6/10 if we're being generous because it dosent offer anything that hasnt been done before and it still ends up cloning a lot of tripple a games in a lot of ways like bad story pacing. like you dont even know who you are or why you are doing what you are doing before your partner goes down, and im not sure if we are supposed to care about that character but we didnt even know who she was by the time the boss unalives her. little things like this break the immersion of the game for me and make me suspicious that they are actually affiliated with sbi in some way. the news surrounding this fireball has been off the rails. feels like a trap
I’ve beaten dark souls 3, bloodborne, lies of p and I platinumed Elden ring and GOW ragnorok. I really struggled in some parts of this game under normal difficulty on my first play through
Well, they got their foot in the door in the hopes that we get a whole hell of a lot more. So if you finish the game you can't just explore like an open world (not that there'd be much point)?
Story mode is supposed to easy for some to come in and enjoy the game at an easier pace. Not everyone enjoys the frustrating more hard game play or have time.
So you start as the third person character that you've always tried to make in every character creator that you've ever used. AND she is a badass. Now THAT is a good start.
This was not known but: They just added new game plus with the update today! So will be out day one :)
This should really help for you with cleaning up the side content! Hopefully they drop some other patches that make it even easier to clean up.
@@BastiaenAssassin Yeah 100%
Fantastic!❤
That's what I'm talking about games that deliver new game plus the day it releases that's awesome
Come on should be good. At least 8/10 imho
when a youtuber says a game is 10hrs you can pretty much guarantee it will be 50hour for regular humans not doing speed runs to be first to review it.
Yea and not skipping every side mission and playing on easy mode 😂
@@thegamewin100 ive spent 2 hours just exploring the first section just up to across the gorge right at the beginning. i just learned I can grab hold of the wall to climb up.

I read a patch dropped and the new fame plus is now available tho
Yes didn't know this, but it's true!
What’s New fame?
7:57 the game is not short or rushed and if you say did everything in your first playthrough in 22 hours then you must have skipped all the cutscenes.
I dont have a lot of experience with these types of games, but I loved the demo, and pre ordered it a few days ago.

different hairstyles too

Can we put our progression on the actual game from the demo?
That is what ive heard from everyone. I do believe that you can do that.
Yes. When you use your demo save data, you'll spawn at the supply camp right before abaddon fight (you have to fight him again)

3 times to be exact for the platinum. Has 3 endings just like most games of the genre.
Appreciate the heads up on the no return and its impact!
The breeching chests.. I really just wish there was an easy mode on these darn things
so basically u complained about the bosses at the end wer too hard with no exploration. cry me a river
Does ng+ allow you to revisit the world after completing the story?
Awesome review as always Jor, and thanks for the heads up regarding the point of no return towards the end of the story. I probably would have made the same mistake you did if you hadn't mentioned it. Also I am curious about outfits. Do they all have a single color scheme or can their colors be changed?
The outfits have alternate designs and alternate colors to be unlocked in new game plus as well as some completely new outfits
I'm so curious what were the boss encounters that got frustrating?
Im glad its hard and has a boss rush im a huge bloodborne fan this game seems right up my alley.
Am I missing something? I only fought in the rooftop boss and started over how are we getting these other levels gameplays??????? Like double jump unlock aswell???

How many endings are there?
Elden ring
Can't wait for the sequel
My most anticipated game the last few years is almost here. I'm HYPED🔥🔥
Can't wait for this game to release on Friday.
Awesome game. How did u do with the 3 endings?
As someone who is not great at the soulslike games combat would you say that difficulty spike with those bosses could essentially break the game for me?
Did you do well with Bayonetta? It's more that paced in fights but try the demo out

When you pick from demo data save, it drops you at the supply camp right before abaddon. You have to fight him again

What’s your opinion on the censored parts of the game with the day 1 patch?
Don’t install patch..play offline, then do patch after 1st play through
felt honest - design decisions can fix via patch.
I can tell by this dudes voice that Raven absolutely pushed his shit in. 😂
IS better for controller or mouse and keyboard ?
@PeanutMike Oh I see - I taught it is for PC to
@PeanutMike well you can use a mouse andkeyboard on ps5 tbf haha but they thought it was for pc too obviously haha

@PeanutMike Would be nice to see Bloodborne and Sekiro on PC.
type o negative, nice
Any news for pc port
I’m never listening to this dude again after rise of the ronin 💀 that game was awesome
Jor is there romance between Eve and Adam? I would love to see them together...

Can you remap the controls? Specially can I make light and heavy attack R1 and R2? I couldn't on the demo 😕
Hey jor can’t wait for this game
It's out already?
Friday!
Stellar blade is absolutely beautiful
Dragons dogma 2 did a similar thing with a no return final mission/true ending that was frustrating
This up coming weekend is gonna be fun 😁

Wished you could explore after completed the game though
Was anything censored? I heard they are censoring a graffiti on a wall that says “hard r” hopefully that was the only thing censored.
Nope, uncensored.
I get jor raptor and khraze gaming mixed up 🤷♂️🤯 they sound so similar
I love this Dutch accent so much ❤
Started out saying it was 8/10 finish the game 9.5/10... if they work on SB2 and add a couple of things easily 10/10 game
This is why I use pts gaara as my main now. Ranked needs to be cleansed of these imposters.
Bought digital deluxe edition 👍🏻
So it gets so hard and for people playing story mode it doesn’t matter? Story mode was challenging still but i liked it but now i may cancel preorder
