I couldn't get the game to start, until i fixed the issue with the solution i numbered out below my review. Beautiful, well made adventure / exploration game. Had some really neat Zelda puzzles, mini dungeons, and boss battles. About 12.5 hours long to do everything. I stupidly did not realize until about 5 hours in how the shooting/moving mechanic works (you can get a speed boost with a guaranteed-to-hit full charge shot, or take a chance to miss with a bigger boost, higher tempo movement speed by hitting the target perfectly at the halfway point of the charge indicator. The way the story is told via exploring environmental clues inside of war-torn ruins and temples, with scattered bodies with blue souls that give a short text blurb of the victim's last thoughts before they passed is pretty well done. I think it is not as strong as Abzu or Sword of the Sea, but definitely worth a play, and enjoyed my time with it. However a couple of cons kept me from loving it. Turning off Austin Wintory's music in an area after beating the boss battle is a travesty. The blue smellovision with gong noise is really stupid... just ends up being annoying after a while, and obscures all the beautiful work that went into the world. The game world has plenty of things to see and do, but 75% of the puzzles are not memorable, and each of the areas becomes a blur of equally spaced "quick things to check out" spread out radially in a bowl shaped area. The stealth sections in the storms were lame. One of those games where it's gameplay loop does not really evolve much, such that what you are doing at hour 2 you will be doing at hour 10. Steps for fix to launch game / fix resolution settings: 1. Download the latest release of DXVK [github.com] 2. Open it using 7-zip[7-zip.org] or similar. 3. From the "x64 folder", copy the files "d3d11.dll" and "dxgi.dll" 4. paste them into "\steam\steamapps\common\The Pathless\Pathless\Binaries\Win64", where "Pathless-Win64-Shipping.exe" is located. 5. Game should start now. 6. Bonus: if you are having trouble getting the right display resolutions to show up in the in-game graphics options.... right click properties on "Pathless.exe", go to "Compatibility" tab, click on "Change high DPI settings" button near bottom, and uncheck both the boxes under "Program DPI" and "High DPI scaling override" sections..
It's crazy beautiful, it's much more a game about how it feels to play it vs the gameplay itself. The puzzles are generally simple and it's basically impossible to 'die' in this game. It's very accessible but less game'ish. The camera work when you start running is out of this world! You could say it has the delight of MONUMENT VALLEY.
Really simple but fun. The game looks beautiful, and the soundtrack is great. Gameplay consists mostly of pressing 3 buttons, but getting the hang of the movement is really enjoyable and rewarding. The puzzles are pretty easy. The boss fights are also not that hard, but they look fantastic. I enjoyed my time with it. I would say get it on sale.
I loved this game!! The story was great, the graphics are very pretty, the music is absolutely epic (Austin Wintory). It is rather short because I beat it within 10 hours but I will be playing through it again so I can get all the achievements. I also know there are some secrets I need to find as well. The boss fights are challenging but I like the fact that you don't have to start the whole battle over again if you "die" because you get knocked out of the area instead. I give this 9/10, only because I wish it was a little longer. I will be attempting to get that extended ending next :) I like the fact that Troy Baker was the voice actor for the Godslayer too.
