Stellar Blade™

I really enjoyed this game. I had no idea what to expect going in. From the gameplay snippets I'd seen, it almost seemed more like a proof of concept than a full game, but I was blown away. I genuinely cared about the world, the characters, and the lore. The story isn't groundbreaking, but it was more than good enough to complement the outstanding gameplay. I found myself looking for every collectible because I actually wanted to learn more about the world and its lore. Not to mention the incredible musical score that accompanies it. I also respect how they handled the DLC packs. They're expensive, and those with the money who want them can buy them, but for once we got a full-fledged game without content feeling like it had been deliberately cut out just to sell back as DLC. I hope SHIFT UP continues to have the same success with whatever they do next, especially now that they've moved beyond PlayStation. More than anything, I hope they continue building on this world. It genuinely made me think about what it means to be human, which feels particularly relevant in the increasingly AI-dominated world we're now living in.

PANAS BANGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game is what I felt during a particularly cozy time of my life, It will always have a place in my heart

Absolutely peak all the way until the end where the final boss ruins the ending horribly by being such an ass fight it made me not want to finish the game but either way tho it is a really great game (Not regarding the amount of gooner moments)

Despite its flaws in its (somewhat) straightforward story, Stellar Blade pleasantly surprised me in how ridiculously fun it is. The gameplay, UI, movement, everything is incredibly fluid and combined with its action RPG elements, makes it a joy to play. Also, soundtrack is 10/10. Get this game.

When I first played this game on my PlayStation 5 Pro I found myself really enjoying the combat and the exploration and how it rewards you with plenty of upgrades and materials to craft new outfits. there's an insane amount of lore in the game that I'm not entirely versed on but the story that gets told upfront is very good IMO. The first playthrough on my PS5 Pro I got the bad ending without even knowing it, I thought to myself "Huh, that was a strange and confusing ending" because I thought that I just assumed that I didn't understand it. A few months later I got myself a PC and saw this game on deal, so I ended up getting it so I can see how good the game would look on better hardware. This game looks very good and runs just as good considering the optimization of current games today, I had the graphics maxed out and I was running over 200 frames easily. I played the game similarly to how I did before while admiring how amazing it looked on my hardware and eventually made it to the end of the game. But instead of doing what I thought the best ending was, I did the ladder. Now I'm a big explorer in open world games and I explored the ♥♥♥♥ out of this game no less, but it tur…
