Lords Of The Fallen is an action RPG set within a medieval fantasy world ruled by a Fallen God where you will fight against the formidable Lords and Generals that command his demonic army.

Lords of the Fallen does a lot of things right. Its exploration is its strongest point, and jumping from the human and Umbra realms provides unique enemy encounters and secrets. However, while its combat could have been great, it's ultimately marred by poor hitbox detection and a lock-on camera that will get you killed more than it will save you. There is just something about the world that kept me coming back for more. Whether it was the exploration, the great monster and character designs, or the world itself. Lords of the Fallen is a great return to the dark gothic style of these highly dif...

Lords of the Fallen has a lot to offer but is largely held back by technical issues throughout, and the further I progressed through the game, the more striking these problems became, escalating from a few dips in framerate to hard crashes and glaring pop-in.

Great visuals, and impressive voice acting but the combat could use way more improvements for Lords of the Fallen to be considered above average soulslike game.

The new Lords of the Fallen is definitely a better game than the almost decade-old original. More demanding and diverse, it offers a more interesting world. Still, it comes with a few problems.

Lords of the Fallen is enough to tide you over until the next Soulslike, and it has some arresting sights, but it lacks a focus of its own.

Whether one has experienced the previous iteration a decade ago or is a newcomer, the Lords of the Fallen reboot has plenty to offer. Unfortunately, this includes the jank with the joy.

Lords of the Fallen could have been a great game with several more months in the oven.

6/10

When the FPS isn’t dipping, and bosses aren’t cheesing you every step of the way, LotF feels good. But with myriad performance issues, broken multiplayer, and boss fights that increase difficulty through unfair mechanics as opposed to well-developed ones, it really weighs down on the experience. Lords of the Fallen is indeed a Soulslike. And for some, that’s all they need. But be prepared for a challenge to complete the journey, and not in a good way.

I really wanted to like Lords of the Fallen more than I did, as much as it impressed me in parts.

Through this, I continuously found myself wanting to get back into the gameplay more and more, instead of reaching a point of satisfaction and leaving the game alone for a while. Where Dark Souls felt almost like an exercise in masochism, Lords of the Fallen felt akin to a playful waltz with death – being pushed so far only to seize victory from the jaws of defeat and not walk away knowing I would have to do it all again.
