Maybe I should ask here instead and hopefully, someone might know better than me. The whole experience came off as unfinished, unfocused and clearly lacking an actual vision of what the game should be outside of "it should be an action game set in the tower of Babylon with a cool aesthetic". The leveldesign leaves no room for exploration aside from the odd path here and then that leads to a chest but even these aren’t really exciting to traverse. The beta had no scaling at all so soloplay isn’t really an option unless you like to grind your way through the hallway levels. My impressions of the beta were that the game is way slower than Bayonetta or Automata, probably to accommodate the casual player and thus is a lot more boring to play. At the end you get some loot so you boost your overall power (the first room had a recommended powerlevel of 1 whereas room 5 was something like 70? And each weapon gave you a boost of 2-5 at most) but since I couldn’t finish a whole run I only got some useless scraps I could sell. Maybe it’s more fun when you have a full group of people but even then it’s just "kill all enemies in this room to proceed to the next room to kill all enemies in it". The game does have some nice animations and I love the graphical style they chose even though it still makes it sometimes hard to see what’s going on exactly. You're pretty much just dodging all over the place while trying to get an attack in. So you desperately flail your weapons at the enemies hoping to kill some of them while you're getting ganked by 10 other monsters. You, when playing alone, do next to no damage, even with your stronger special attacks. This should be cool but it feels really slow and not very rewarding. The leveldesign is super bland and uninspired, it basically funnels you from room to room to fight groups of monsters in which you can attack using four weapons that are assigned to four buttons on your controller. Since it’s a live service game you have to play this in multiplayer, but nobody seemed to have played the game when I did so I just played the first few stages alone and it was super boring until it became super hard because I was missing three team mates. I found at least something good in every game they released but this left me really disappointed.Īs I've said in my other post: if I play a platinum action game I want an over the top, non-stop action game and Babylons Fall doesn’t provide this. I’ve played the last beta for a while and I'm a huge platinum fan. I just posted to the other comment chain, but I can go more in depth in here. I've played the last beta and posted my thoughts about it a few days ago:
