Lords Of The Fallen - Standard Edition (PlayStation 5)

Really good game for PS5

Great game

Need a souls fix? This is the answer! I loved my time with this game and is a solid entry for a non from software title

Was so looking forward to this coming out; pre-ordered it – but due to finishing a few other games first, didn’t get around to playing it until just before Christmas – by which point most of the bugs had been ironed out.After 80 hours playing, I think it’s safe to give 5 Stars. Taking my time with it, and loving the atmosphere. “Going Umbral” reminds me of Alice: Madness Returns (another of my favourite games), but with soooo much more threat.Having completed most From Software games, I’m now starting to believe this isn’t just a mere Soulslike….it’s get everything you’d want from Dark Souls 4 or Bloodborne 2; full of the Eldritch horror the latter would entail. Which, being an elder goth, reminds me of two great bands; one of whom pretty much patented the genre – The Sisters of Mercy. And then along came Fields of the Nephilim, taking the same blueprint and then going into deeper, darker directions.The devs should be proud of this. To take the Soulsborne formula, to make a game SO similar both in gameplay, and graphics… (which are stunning) and then to make it your own is a credit to them.And yes, nearly gave up at the first boss. Pieta is *hard*. So’s the Hushed Saint. After that, it gets more manageable; you find ways around things… given the weapon choices, there’s always something that’lldo the job; you just have to find it.Bring on Lords of the Fallen 2!

Very good game with good graphics, my only complaint is that the boss fights are so hard, and unlike other games, you can not switch to an easier play mode. On some of the boss fights, I was struggling for 3 or 4 days! Fortunately, there are some great tips on YouTube to help you if you are struggling. Overall, a good game, but it should give a choice of easy or hard gameplay.

I was sceptical about buying this game because of other poor reviews, but after biting the bullet and doing so anyway, I realised just how wrong those poor reviews were, and just how good this game really is.I am a huge fan of souls games and after pumping 200+ hours into Elden Ring, I was struggling to find something that gave me the same level of challenge, excitement and exploration. I tried Demon Souls, and that was ok. But LOTF? This game has come through giving me exactly what I was looking for.YES.. there’s the occasional frame stutter, but does it warrant a bad review? Absolutely not.This game is vast with a lot of different enemies in both worlds, aswell as the opportunity to build a class to suit your preferences - there really is endless opportunities to tackle the game and I feel the game can be played in many different ways. I’m 40 hours in and will likely be playing this for a very long time.A DEFINITE buy if you’re a souls fan.

I wanted to buy it for a long time but I waited for the updates and now it's worth every penny, the game is incredible and its performance is wonderful, cool story and good mechanics.

I was planning to buy the game on release, but I'm glad I held off as I heard it had a rocky launch with poor frame rates and crashes. The latest update seems to have fixed all of that as I've not experienced any crashes, and the frame rate is consistently smooth on PS5.The game looks amazing and feels great to play. If you're a Dark Souls fan you'll be right at home with Lords of the Fallen 2, it's a familiar set up but with some interesting mechanics that set it apart from other Soulslikes. I highly recommend this game, I picked it up here for around £20 which is a bargain for such a good game.
