The Demon Rush: Legends Corrupt

I really want to like this game. The strange art style, overwrought writing, and action RPG combat definitely appeal. I liked the fighting well enough, the RPG systems seemed interesting, and I laughed when an enemy effortlessly misted another with his palm. It has the hallmarks of a funny-odd indie JRPG. But it is way too disorienting. It's using orthographic projection with a free-roaming camera that constantly collides with objects, and the environments have no shadow maps, so shifting your view is always an ordeal. Interactables aren't clearly designated and their interaction area is finicky, particularly for doors. Combat is far too fast and the default hotkeys are awkward. Messaging for combat abilities is a minor visual effect on the character and a timer with icon in the bottom right. Music is a single track midi song on loop. And I really hated the blonde guy you start with, whose smug self-obsessed South Park-ian attitude immediately drags down the start of the game, especially since the main character generally agrees with him. Basically, it's lacking all of the considerations necessary to make a game like not awkward to play. I think with some work on smoothing out t…

I haven't played a lot of it yet but so far I am enjoying it and plan on playing through the whole story. I think its pretty impressive this was made by one guy and it looks like they have put a lot of effort into it since they have planned expansions for it. So far my favorite alternate game mode is boulderball because it just feels like pure chaos. The combat reminds me of quest 64 which is a huge plus for me. I think the story is fairly interesting and keeps me going with the funny dialogue. I'm pretty excited for the future expansions, to see what naval combat looks like. The fact that there are so many extra modes just makes this a bigger game than it actually is.

Let me say!! I did enjoy my time playing this game. It is, however, a difficult game to recommend. From hard to grasp combat to a somewhat nonsensical autosave feature, this game has a litany of issues. That does not mean, however, that there isn't stuff in the game that's interesting and/or fun. Keep in mind, the following list applies only to the Story mode. I cannot speak for other game modes. Pros: - Game has that classic rpg fun element to it. - Formulaic RPG story (this is a good thing IMO) - Easy to use skill tree. - Fun small comedic moments. - Art and animation style is charming. Gives off the vibes of a 2006 adult swim 3d animated show. Cons: - Combat issues a targetting mechanic ONLY for the NPC's in your party but not for the character you control. - Enemies zip around the battlefield in combat, making actually dealing with them difficult. - Enemy encounters are mostly unavoidable. - There is no clear indication of what is interactable. The page states that "interactable doors are light and non-interactable doors are dark". This rings not true in a good few maps. - Despite having an autosave feature, this does not apply to your progress. It is unclear as to why t…

for a low quality game, it has alot, I reccomend it, a attempt was made, and as weird and chatic and confusing as it is, I cannot deny a huge amount of effort went into it, and that is all I can sk out of a indie game like this

I've been playing Dragoon's games for a while now, and I do got to say, this game is pretty fun, even with its problems. Firstly, There are a LOT of different modes to play, like the main Story mode, Prisonbreak, Heist Mode, Naval Conquest, and a lot more which you can see from the trailer. The Story mode is pretty fun, its beatable in about 7-8 hours, but with every new expansion there's also expansions to the story mode, so that's cool too. Now, the Story does have problems, for one, a lot of the dialogue consists of lore dumps, and explaining a lot of things, which me personally, I'm fine with, but I can see some people being turned off by that. It's not necessarily a bad thing on its own, but with how much of it there is, sometimes dialogue can feel like a bit of a chore to go through for some people. The story itself is pretty good, at least, that's what I think. Maps, mostly dungeons, do feel a little sparse, it is better then Dragoon's games before this one, but a lot of rooms consist of just the walls and the floor, with nothing else. But that's mostly for the dungeons, the town area's are filled with buildings and roads and cars and stuff like that, and NPC's to talk to…
