I'm glad these medium budget / "AA" niche titles have been popping up more frequently as of late. Soulstice especially is more than welcome, since it fits into a genre that's criminally underused, being pretty much limited to DmC and whatever Platinum puts out (that's not Babylon's fall).
Idk, I do love this genre but I use games like this as a break from time to time from my go-to of shooters. If they were out all the time I deal like the genre would lose its magic. Maybe that's just me with a terrible opinion tho. But double A we absolutely NEED more of! AA games are always the ones that take the most risk trying something new and fresh in the gaming space. Plus visually and mechanically they don't seem lacking (save for maybe a few spits here and there, pretty much the parts of the game that got the smallest budget allocation which usually have negligible impact on your game enjoyment)
We need to stop using these arbitrary "A" ratings for games. AAA as term seemingly came out of nowhere and only seems to denote how much money they had to dump into marketing and doesn't denote the games actual quality whatsoever. It means nothing
@@kyler247 AAA means the mainstream studios that put millions and millions of dollars into a game, while AA refers to smaller scale games with smaller budgets that aren't indie games.
@@kyler247 You've almost answered it. AAA is a financial term, it's a credit rating. In a business perspective it kind of makes sense to use these terms but in the layman's sense it only means 'big studio'. We don't even use the other 18 credit ratings, which go down to CCC- (or D for default). So it makes no sense to say "AA" because the other ratings don't mean anything in this context. Finally, credit ratings aren't really about size, they are about ability to pay back debt. So in real life a small studio could easily be AA+ while a large studio could be BBB-.
ACG thanks for showing love to the “budget” AA titles recently, I got steelrising on your recommendation and loved it, the character action genre is sadly absent this last console generation, hopefully it’s getting a revival!
@@jeremytodd77 I've played some souls games but i got tired of it so yeah. Anything that is souls or soulslike is a grind for me and i don't have much time for it.
Steelrising is hella short. ~20hrs for a full playthrough doing everything. How is that a grind? It was also a fantastically well-done soulslike. Definitely a few gripes and some bugs here and there, but I was impressed. Better than the more recent Thymesia which is still pretty great too. Nioh 2 still takes the cake as one of the best action games in a long time though. Soulstice isn't souls-like though, so I'm hella stoked to play it later tonight. Glad to hear ACG thoroughly enjoyed it as well.
This is one of those games that people look back really fondly on as time goes on. Anything clearly inspired by Berserk gets my support, especially if it's good like this.
Sounds like a very pleasant surprise. I’d like to commend and praise that ANY modern 3rd person game dares to experiment with camera direction and isn’t glued to my intimate circle, even during rotation. I have recently got stuck into the older GoW and DMC titles - The pacing and vibes that dynamic camera work provides, is really a lost art and toolset.
Underrated, sleeper of the year, hidden gem, and will be a cult classic. I seen some reviewers say games cut from this cloth are outdated, beg to differ. Especially being that every time I see a game that I think will be this type (Hack n slash, action game, character action game,) it always has soulsborne combat. So when we get one of these it's rare and fresh. Really hoping for a sequel. The ending left me wanting more
Claymore comes to mind here, so awesome. The difference in the character art and environment I actually really dig. It’s not quite cell shaded but looks similar to something like the Prince of Persia remake a few years back. I actually dig it.
Great video as always. But man, at 4:03 something intense happens with the sound mixing. The wind in the cut scene being shown is super loud. Just a heads up.
The fact that IGN gave this a 5 out of 10 let's me know for sure that this game is amazing. Those stale farts usually give the good stuff lower scores while piling praise on AAA drudgery.
Just to add if you are new to this type of game like i was, i would suggest starting on the lowest difficulty. Some of the enemies you will encounter early on you wont have a good counter to until later and can be bullet spongy. Also you wont have as many of Lute's powers until later in the game which will make your life much easier, you always switch the difficulty higher in between chapters as well. I think this is one of those games where they want you to play the game multiple times on higher difficulties, which isnt a bad thing, i just wish i had known when i first started.
I used to love hack and slash like Devil May Cry, God of War, Dantes Inferno and it sucks these types of games have been missing. Definitely picking this up.
I'm currently on chapter/level 17 and wonder if I should have just skipped this one. The combat is fun when you're fighting "standard" enemies, but can get quite frustrating and tedious when they throw a bunch at you that require the red and blue banishment/energy fields to attack. I'm constantly having to break off combos to try to keep Lute from going into overcharge, which would leave me without the means to attack until the cooldown is over. It's really sucking the joy out of this game for me. Lesson learned: Never play another action game that uses color coded enemy/weapon restrictions.
I knew/heard nothing about this game until I seen it in the Xbox store about an hour ago. I was like ACG probably won't do a review on it. I'll be damned. Karak coming in clutch 😎🤘
I love the environments in these types of games. I feel they can make or break a games immersion more so than actual game play and controls. Great review and will need to jump over and check out that Darktide podcast.
I recetly got a OLED monitor. The eye candy and the hack slash game looks great. With your review and the winter sale of 30% off, i ended up buying it. Great review Karak.
Cutscenes can play above 30 FPS what you need to do is turn off both Vsync and the FPS limit. Yes both! If one is turned on the cutscenes will play at 30 FPS. To alleviate tearing use the fast sync option for Nvidia cards.
Part of me wishes that the name choice was intentional, but it's still very unfair towards Guts to name this character after someone who traumatized him for life.
As a Berserk and Claymore fan the previews looked pretty awesome to me! Glad to hear the game is overally quiet decent, definitely going to pick this up!
Ill say that the character and world are on purpose in regards to the character looking too anime for the dark world. The characters and world are based off of the anime Claymore. Its almost taken right from it even having the thin female character with a massive sword with silver eyes and her mouth curling around her face when using her demonic abilities. If they dont have the actual artist Im surprised they even got to design the characters like this since its way too close.
I shall play this till bayonetta 3 arrives. Loving the constant trickle of AA games like this and steelrising. Feels like ps2 days again. And kudos to ACG for covering these titles.
@@lenabrokaw714 And Soulstice is just a shitty art. Like you said games are art and this one is just low quality art. Even at 10 bucks, it wouldn't even be good at all.
I was looking through the games I've picked up free on EGS and saw this, I basically grab everything and check it out later. So I figured I'd take a look before I install it and...Man, this looks like the kind of random PS2 games I used to buy based entirely on being cheap and having a cool cover. Stuff I would grow to love like Drakengard and Nanobreaker, stuff that would perplex me for a bit before giving up like Chaos Legion and Baroque, I kinda miss those days of going to the local used game store and finding something that seemingly nobody has ever played.
Thank you for taking the time to review this game, It has been on my radar since I played the demo for it and was hoping you would review so I can get a nice neutral opinion on this product's worth. I liked the demo, minus the constant interruptions in the boss battle where it switches to cinematics several times after certain HP thresholds are met, but that is the only main complaint I have. $40 for this to me seems to be a good price.
I ended up uninstalling the game. The game becomes more frustrating to play the further along you progress. Introducing newer enemy types with time wasting gimmicks and even putting traps in the fights that make things even more frustrating. I just gave up.
Really fun game directly inspired by Japanese dark fantasy! It’s got such an interesting mix of capcom/platinum games style of combat here, i hope it does well enough to get a sequel! I heard even snake likes it!
I jumped into Soulstice a couple of days ago. I'm not fond of the visuals, they were by the way what kept me from wanting to play it but the instant I jumped into the game I got a lot of satisfaction just wooping asses in a stylish way so this was more satisfactory then I would've guessed in the first place :) I'm enjoying the time playing the game even if it's kinda rigid in some parts of its gameplay.
I thought this was going to be Darksouls like cause the world simply interested me. Now that I know it’s DMC like I’m really hyped. Picking it up on my next paycheck.
Started playing only because I got it for free on Epic. The camera is really bad during fights but I must say, during the traversal part is even worse. You can't pan the camera around and it suddenly changes angle whenever you get to certain points; it's like a port of an old PS2 game. Maybe this could've been better as a 2D side scroller.
Hi! @AVG, I’ve just recently found your vids on UA-cam and really enjoy the content. I also hear you talk about the demonetization of past vids and was curious if the uploaded vids where all your gameplay and did you try asking permission from the copyrights holders use any footage of said game? I trying to understand the limits of useable footage on UA-cam as well and thought your experience might help. Anyway thanks for the content even if you can’t answer this question!
That protagonists is 100% inspired by berserk. Also the ghost lady on his back is exactly the same as shierke trying to calm guts down from going insane
Yeah I was thinking that the whole time watching, her armour is even stylistically similar to guts berserker armour when he's not using its power, plus the sword is very much the dragonslayer, and the whole eye patch thing was actually in Miuras original design for guts.
@darksider1239 and I can definitely respect that. It definitely brings back some memories from ps2 days lol but it's frustrating for me sometimes because everything is 3rd person over the shoulder nowadays. I love the game don't get me wrong, I'm actually playing it right now.. I'm on chapter 21 and it's kicking my ass haha
seeing this for $34.99 and me being so broke, made me smile, when work is done, gonna go pick up some psn cards, true that $35 will break the bank but i tried the demo and loved it and so looking forward to this, this and BAYONETTA 3 will be the last games for 2022.
If you're that broke that $35 is going to ruin you and break the bank, I think you have bigger fish to fry than playing some cheap looking video game, my guy.
@@lenabrokaw714 i can get 1 game every 3 months, and we talking a $60 or $70 game, this was a pleasant surprise, i was saving up for BAYONETTA 3, but paying $35 for such a good game wasn't that bad, down on my luck for reasons beyond my control for a few years (check lebanon hyperinfaltion) so gotta be frugal.
@@Delta-DaDonDada sadly no, we don't have anything like , also, due to economical reasons here, buying stuff online got hard, also, why not go outside and take a walk and enjoy life and get something? u kids are ur phones, u got lazy u kids.
I was literally about to push the play button after downloading the demo, and the clock rolled over to 12 a.m. Now I can't try it out, so here I am watching you again, Jeremy. Thanks for the review. Man, looking at Lute doing some of her moves really reminds me of Folklore. I miss that game and their Bug-a-boos, and I yearn for the day I ever get to play it again.
Hey I know I’m already gonna love this one but wanting to know if I should get this one or Steelrising right now. Like I said I’m gonna get this one eventually or Steelrising eventually. 🤘😁🖤
I know you don't do sponsors so this may be a bit too much, but if you have/have plans to get a steam deck, it would be awesome to tell us how it works in that small platform.
I'm glad these medium budget / "AA" niche titles have been popping up more frequently as of late. Soulstice especially is more than welcome, since it fits into a genre that's criminally underused, being pretty much limited to DmC and whatever Platinum puts out (that's not Babylon's fall).

Wait this is our already?? I played the demo a few weeks ago and really really enjoyed it. Didn't think it was coming out so soon.
I am going to get this double aa game. If it's anything like a Plaguetale innocence I'm all in.
What about level variety? Is the whole game set in this medieval castle environment or are there other areas to explore?
First 4 chapters I've played were but I'd imagine it changes, I certainly hope so at least lol
That protagonists is 100% inspired by berserk. Also the ghost lady on his back is exactly the same as shierke trying to calm guts down from going insane

I was literally about to push the play button after downloading the demo, and the clock rolled over to 12 a.m. Now I can't try it out, so here I am watching you again, Jeremy. Thanks for the review.
Man, looking at Lute doing some of her moves really reminds me of Folklore. I miss that game and their Bug-a-boos, and I yearn for the day I ever get to play it again.
Fwoly huck someone who knows of Folklore.

Hey I know I’m already gonna love this one but wanting to know if I should get this one or Steelrising right now. Like I said I’m gonna get this one eventually or Steelrising eventually. 🤘😁🖤
I know you don't do sponsors so this may be a bit too much, but if you have/have plans to get a steam deck, it would be awesome to tell us how it works in that small platform.
Very good point for future reviews 😎👉
do you have a review for evil west i'm looking forward to it 👍
Thanks man!
Bought this along with DMC5 and the PS5 console, best purchase ever!
Just came onto my ps5 premium so defo gonna give it a try now ..cheers bro
Had this in my hand at best buy, shoulda got it
Not sure if I missed it , but how long to beat this game ? I want something around 10 hours or at most under 20
Yeah, he DID forget to mention that. He also mentioned persona 5 in passing so I am scared, lol
@@flaminghead1va lol , yeah do to limited time I just can’t do the extra long games like I used to . Wish I could though
First time ever hearing about this game and it looks awesome, just got a steam deck so this is perfect for it
“I had no crashes” is one of the rare things I’ve heard you say
Almost seems like different teams worked on the art for characters and world respectively, can't say I like it, just seems off imo.
Good review! Thanks
