Soul for two

⠀

RPG Maker strikes again! Soul for two is one of hundreds of low effort retro-pixel RPG Maker asset/construction kit flips spamming the Steam catalog, made with the RPG Maker video game construction kit... in their own words, "Our easy to use tools are simple enough for a child." Like all RPG Maker "games", this is essentially a bunch of low quality/canned assets from RPG Maker coupled with a cringeworthy high school anime club fan fiction. This RPG Maker asset flip deviates from the normal RPG Maker asset flip which is a high school anime club dropout fan-fiction about the "developers" imaginary girlfriend and instead deals with two characters both called Lancelot. Ugh. Yes, the name is from Arthurian legend but it's pretty obvious the "developer" here knows as much about that as he does game development (none, which is why he used the children's toy RPG Maker to stamp out this asset flip). So yes, we have yet another RPG Maker high school anime club fan-fiction, this time about "Lancelot". I wonder why this was a complete and utter failure? As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics twea…

Игра «Soul for Two» предлагает уникальный кооперативный опыт, где два игрока управляют персонажами, связанными эмоциональной и физической синхронизацией. Механика захватывающая: действия одного влияют на второго, требуя идеальной координации. Сюжет скромный, но атмосфера напряженная, с красивым визуалом и динамичными боевыми сценами. Однако сложность может отпугнуть новичков, а сюжет кажется поверхностным. Лучше всего подойдет ценителям кооперативных игр с высоким уровнем взаимодействия. Для одиночного прохождения — не вариант.

what was that ? the story is confusing as hell. i just started the game, then BOOM, an unkillable dragon just appeared. so i was escaped, then i'm in heaven, so far so good, but then, i need to fight with a random angel. and it turns out, the angel is a half demon, who is insta kill you. and then, you wake up in the real world. *confusion* you can explore a city in a bit, but after all, you need to go and play a computer game in your house. witch is a random fantasy scenario yet again... this game has some potencial, but the beginning is so random and confusing, that i decided to not play along...

At best it's an boring RPGmaker with unbalanced enemies and a bad encounter rate. But the modern sections are tedious, dull and the player is a whinny brat. Plus the translation is just abysmal.
