Deadly Sin Reviews

Pro: Story? Maybe. Con: Lets see. Everything else I guess. First, the controls are totally wacky. Only stick works, buttons are awkwardly chosen. No settings available whatsoever. So can't change controls, can't mute music and no, the muting of windows system sounds is not an acceptable solution if I want to listen something else while playing. Lack of information. Game has a "skill tree" and you need certain amount of skill points to get a new skill. Guess what, you have no way of knowing how many skill points you have at any given moment. Only way is to try and see if you can choose a new skill. Also you can debuff mobs, except again, you have no way of knowing if it went through or missed. Game doesn't tell if mobs are buffed/debuffed. What else? Balance is all over the place really, trash mobs taking an eternity to kill (fun fun) and really seem to give totally outta hat amount of exp. Also normal hits tend to do pathetic damage, so you're forced to use skills/magic every turn if you wanna get through before sun expires. Itemization is bit off too, but I suppose that's manageable. Though again, there are no info on your magic resistance and game happily uses defense and armor as same thing which might confuse some people. Despite all that, being a some sorta masochist, I spent 22h on this game and was on the end part when my rage meter finally got filled. I entered an area where a small flame follows you and you have to try and find a way through a maze with switches. Thing is, you're forced to follow the road, but flame can skip corners as it pleases, so it will hit you. You don't insta die, but you also can't heal. So basically only way through seems to be save scumming and that's not really something a good or even mediocre game would have you do. Thus it seems I will just uninstall because why bother. Game is pretty damn short anyway if you take out the forced grinding of levels.
