EOE is an original PS2 action game by Yuke's, a Japanese dev who are mainly known for working on western wrestling titles. It’s an early entry for the system and when playing it you can tell (early PS2 voice acting galore) EOE contains good qualities underneath its jank. You collect different types of weapons from staffs, swords, and axes. These can be leveled up by using them which increases the amount of it you can combo with. The cool thing is that you are encouraged to switch to other weapons mid combo to perform new ones.
Weapons are also subjects of puzzle solving and platforming (which are all very easy mind you). They also have a special attack that is performed by pressing and then doing motion with the right analog stick. It takes a little while to get used to but eventually you get it. The biggest flaw with EOE is the camera. It’s not perfect becomes obvious during boss fights. Something I discovered though is that most of the AI in the game is susceptible to stagger and attacks from behind. While is not free from flaws, EOE is a fun, short action romp if you can deal with the camera mainly.
