Considering this was a $70 title only a few months ago, I was surprised to see it for $8.99. After spending 20 hours with the game, I understand why and I think even at that price it's still not worth it. Buy a nice latte instead.

Playing on Xbox Series X the game is ripe with performance issues and let downs. Immortals is striving so hard to give you Doom-esque combat but when the framerate is dipping and diving all over the place in a frantic battle, it just doesn't work. I wish my gaming PC was newer to try it, because perhaps the experience would have been better.

"Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off." - Coco Chanel - It's a combat system that just has too much and, at least on a controller, often leads to fumbling in battle. Three main weapons, three off weapons, six magic spells, melee, jump, double jump, hover, dash, sprint, and a grappling hook.... it's just a bit much, and I'd say about 20-30% of these are bland and lackluster. The spell parry ability was a standout favorite though, I really liked that.

Enjoyable characters and great voice acting was likely the only reason I completed this one. I wanted to like the story and the lore more, but it felt bland and uninspiring. As the player I really did not care one way or another how things turned out.

Rook for MVP.
