TL;DR 89/100 Solid foundation held back by a few annoying things (no minimap/map in some areas, platforming is annoying and some puzzles as well as sidequests are insanely tedious) but a decent soulsborne with the potential to spawn a very successful sequel if they improve on mistakes that were made. Definitely worth at least giving it a try and picking up on sale. Don't treat it like a hack and slash. The combat rewards patience and precision and is very satisfying when you get the hang of it. So I wanted to finish the two main endings to the game before writing a review and ended up putting a ton of hours in. First off Stellar Blade is a great game. Don't be deceived thinking it's some surface level fan service nonsense. If you want EVE to be running around with little to almost no clothing on and physics that make Newton roll around in his grave then go for it but there are plenty of outfits (exosuits) that are far less revealing and prone to "physics". To me Stellar Blade is sitting in an interesting position at about an 89/100. It's just shy of being an A and honestly if there were some slightly better map design choices, streamlined quests and general QoL I could see it pushing 95/100. The story isn't 10/10. It's interesting and despite complaints from others I don't find the characters to be "flat" or "lifeless". EVE, Adam, and Lily are all interesting to some degree and the VAs (in English as I played it) do a great job. I have had far worse experiences in games that people praise as "masterpieces" with characters that were far "flatter" and the audio quality sounded like it was recorded through a tin can. That said, I think there is a ton of potential for this story and that ShiftUp has done something interesting to set up what could be a very promising sequel. The combat appears to be hack and slash and the general provocative image people have of EVE invokes thoughts of titles like Bayonetta but this is not a hack and slash. It plays like a soulsborne. The combat revolves around a few simple combos and timed parries and dodges but it HEAVILY rewards patience and studying the movesets of your enemies. It has a "bonfire" mechanic with camps (some you can fast travel from, some you can't, and some are just purely fast travel points) and when you "rest" at a camp to replenish supplies (your estus flask equivalent is a "tumbler" potion with a few other consumables) all of the Naytibas (enemies) respawn save very major bosses/obstacles in typical soulsborne fashion. This is where the game can be both fun and tedious depending on what you are looking for and how much time you want to invest. There are several abilities that EVE gets later on as you progress through the game that make combat MUCH more reasonable (you do get a ranged weapon and yes there is a double jump but it is tied to a side quest later on so don't just keep jumping off dying somewhere because you can't "jump high enough" just come back after you get it which... there is a note on that later) so it really is in your best interest to focus on the core story at first to gain abilities and survivability instead of just struggling through the open areas as basic mobs tear you down as hard as the bosses can at first. The open areas are a bit of a problem in that Stellar Blade can't exactly decide what it wants to be or what it wants to do in some situations and the side questing is one of the biggest problems there. There are two "open areas" that both unlock later on and they are both dreary deserts which is a bit of a bummer (it makes sense given the story and setting but you start to just see a lot of sand when running around collecting things and completing quests). Any platforming or parkour or laser jumping puzzles or bottom-less pits or........ really honestly anything that involves EVE having to jump around with accuracy and precision to get somewhere should have been cut entirely from the game or had an entire team dedicated to improving the platforming. Stellar Blade is at its best when it hits its soulsborne roots with satisfying combat and interesting combinations of gear and a plethora of enemies all with unique movesets to test your arsenal out on. The combat becomes pretty fluid and fun and even the boss mode from the main menu becomes enjoyable when you have the hang of it. My biggest complaints easily are the frustrating platforming, the complete and total lack of any map at all for several key areas (use something like map genie and save yourself the headache if you are getting collectibles) and just various QoL things like the absence of a minimap (you get a compass but the game really would benefit from a minimap) can be detrimental to the experience. With all of that said, I do find that the game excels in so many areas and some of the more frustrating/tedious aspects are optional content that you hardly have to even hit half of to get all three of the endings in two (if you time your saves right) playthroughs with a NG+. Something that a lot of people overlook or developers often just completely and totally forget are accessibility options and just general options for how the game UI appears/functions and various other settings and this is a game that EXCELS in that department. There are a ton of options to customize every control (even on a controller), turn the timer off on "puzzle boxes" (kinda like lockpicking minigames) and completely and totally simplify the fishing minigame making it a breeze. Also you can have QTEs auto succeed and on story difficulty the prompts for the more advanced inputs are displayed and help you adjust and it's worth playing around with if you are struggling with the combat. I can't praise ShiftUp enough for all of the accessibility features they have added. The game realizes something important in that it is a single player game so it doesn't matter if you want some extra time on puzzle boxes or find QTEs obnoxious. Having the ability to tinker with all of that is something every game should have. I understand the reasoning behind "the way the game was meant to be played" but there are a lot of people who aren't able to play the game the way the developers intended it to be played or the options/features are so lacking that the control schemes become so horrible that it can ruin a masterpiece. More devs and publishers need to follow ShiftUp's example here 100% Stellar Blade is fully a 10/10 in that department. That the company who made a gachapon cover based waifu shooter for mobile went and created something at this level is honestly mind boggling. ShiftUp has something solid here to build a framework on and I am very excited for the sequel and hope that it improves on the areas where this game is lacking but doubles down on what really makes it enjoyable. Also if you are still in Eidos 7 (Silent Street/Haven't reached Xion yet) and having a bit of trouble with the beginning trust me try to at least push through to Xion and the game will open up and give you a lot more freedom in terms of what you do, how you do it, and your available equipment/combat options. I stand by my 89/100 rating in that I do feel the game is lacking just enough to push it into something grander or "goty" level but the foundation is there and it is totally worth grabbing. Also side note on the DLCs, the NIER crossover is entirely cosmetic in rewards while the Nikke crossover introduces a minigame very akin to the mobile game (and it's quite frustrating if you're playing on a harder difficulty so put it onto story mode if it's bugging you) but it also introduces a number of cosmetics as well as a very interesting boss fight (in the boss rush mode after you have collected everything). I don't think the DLCs are really worth the full price for the content they have but they are worth picking up on sale for sure especially the Nikke one for the extra boss fight if you enjoy the game's combat.
100 hours, Platinum review After 100 hours and getting all achievements for Stellar Blade, i can confidently say this game is so SO GOOD. I think this might be my favorite single player game experience i've ever had. It isn't perfect, but it does come close to perfection in my opinion. From the first minute of testing controls i remember i was already completely sold. The combo variety you can pull off just from messing around with the light/heavy attacks is already awesome. But then you realize there's an entire skill tree to add to that. Parries, dodges, counters, executions, animation cancels, i mean the list goes on.. different gear combinations, different grenades to throw in the mix, why not? ...A gun with different ammo types. I swear i've never seen a combat system as hype as this one, it's endless fun. The amount of content is huge. Hundreds of hidden collectibles, cosmetics, and a ton of upgrades too. Now, i do think this might not be for everyone. If you skip every cutscene and ignore every side quest this game has to offer, you might come out of it thinking ''that was it?'' The main story line by itself isn't that long. It's totally possible to blitz through the entire thing within a day, which i strongly do not recommend. This game rewards those who enjoy being thorough. If you like exploring every nook and cranny and you have somewhat of a completionist mindset, you will for sure enjoy Stellar Blade. The story is deep and i feel like it needs some paying attention and/or multiple playthroughs to fully understand. Another thing i really loved about this game is the photo mode, it really surprised me with how good it is. Like, let's say Stellar Blade only came with the photo mode, the world and the OST and that's it. I would still have left a positive review lol. The game just happens to come with a tool to make infinite amounts of art, absolutely fantastic. Let's talk about the actual negatives. The movement is a little clunky, EVE is a little hard to control. Especially in the water, which kindof sucks because there's a fair amount of flooded areas in the game. I can't tell you how many times i got stuck in an underground sewer type level just trying to fit my character through the flooded door. It can be a bit frustrating. But hey, atleast you can't drown lol. I also noticed this kind of clunkiness starts worsening towards the later stages of the game, i guess it has something to do with the level designs. The rope swinging is also complete ass imo. I much preferred the more open environments like the wasteland. So yeah, the parkour in this game is a little bad, just not enough to ruin the whole experience. Some of the puzzles are also kinda hit or miss, some of them either require actual mathematics knowledge, a youtube walkthrough, or they're very easy. That isn't necessarily a bad thing but be warned. The positives FAR outweigh the negatives. 9.8/10
