The First Berserker: Khazan Secrets

Do you remember the moment that Sekiro forced you to start playing by its rules? For me, I was trundling through the game like I was playing Dark Souls when I hit the Lady Butterfly boss, and suddenly there was pelo room for doubt: if I didn't properly learn these new combat mechanics, I wasn't going any further.

The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.

But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.

Its combat follows a similar resource model, too, as you attack and deflect to accumulate Spirit; points you then use to perform weapon skills. Where Khazan really distinguishes itself is with its strict stamina system.

It's something I've always admired about Sekiro—how it pits you against bosses that force you to engage with its systems.

Outra coisa qual identicamente conjuntamente incomoda demasiado é o fato do progresso em atalhos dentro Destes mapas não ficar salvo permanentemente no game, quando comecei a realizar backtracking The First Berserker: Khazan nos mapas anteriores para pegar os colecionáveis da platina, me deparei utilizando todos os atalhos qual eu tinha Livre, completamente fechados.

O único detalhe cá é que as vezes possui um filtro exagerado demais em certas áreas, ao ponto do incomodar visualmente e dificultar de modo a enxergar inimigos e itens.

It's also what I love most about The First Berserker: Khazan. Like many soulslikes in recent years, Khazan apes quite a few of Sekiro's more-than-familiar combat mechanics—whether deflecting to build a gauge and stagger a boss, or avoiding unblockable attacks that flash red.

Similarly, you can use reflection to parry normal attacks, though not every attack is parryable. It's up to you to work out which and weave that into your strategy.

Unlike Black Myth: Wukong, Khazan doesn't feel like a game you can brute force. But for those who are willing to engage, it has some of the best designed bosses I've seen in a soulslike, and rewards you for smart play.

Isso faz parecer de que parte do progresso foi jogado no lixo e honestamente não entendi tal decisãeste do “resetar” certas coisas do mapa após sair dele.

It's more that having been spoiled by all the accoutrements of the modern soulslike—elaborate NPC quests, secrets, exploration—Khazan and its no frills linear structure can feel basic at times.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is a hit and Steam played a 'significant role' in that: 27% of activations were on PC and it's the 2nd-biggest AC launch of all time
