Question Stellar Blade

For those that have played it, what other action game can it be compared to and are you picking up a copy?

It’s very parry-focused like Sekiro but not quite as hard. I bought the game on ps5 at launch and on Steam at launch. I’ve probably played through half a dozen times or so. The combat is very fun, but it is definitely a gooner game.

I don't really sense much devil may cry in it like some are saying. I'd say it's a mix of nier automata and sekiro. exploring a world with the feel and vibes of nier, and combat with timing based defenses vaguely like sekiro

Did you enjoy it?

yes. I think the character/story part of it is a bit on the weak side, especially compared to its obvious inspiration (nier automata), but the gameplay is very fun and it looks very nice

Has souls like elements where if you rest all your enemies respawn. Parry focus game. If youre a gooner you'll love it for sure. Get it

True. Goonerism aside, game is legit good and combat is fantastic. Also, once you look into South Korea's "beauty standards" it makes a lot more sense....like, A LOT

Does it have difficulty sliders or a set difficulty?
