Not That Bad As The Reviews

This game is not as bad as everyone is saying. Yes, this is your typical button masher with the occasional bad camera angle but it's a fun game with cool upgrades and great bosses. My biggest complaint is the game is very short. I beat the game in about 10 hours..............I do have the same complaints as the other people but I got used to the problems as the game went on. The camera angle sucks sometimes, cut scene after cut scene, load screen after load screen, and the horrible AI. Luckily you can press the start button to skip the cut scenes. You never die....ever but your partner does die......The game has good graphics, great combos, excellent upgrades, and easy acheviments...........If you're in to bloody button mashers then this game is for you........a good rent!!

I found the game overall entertaining.

I did have problems with the camera angle, and it seemed to lack a sense of direction at times, but the game play is fun, and I haven't had a problem with any of the QTE's.

It may be that I installed the game on my hard drive to make it run a bit smoother, I don't know. That is just a theory.

It does take a little while getting used to the buttons used to use the witch's magic, but that lasted all of about 30 seconds.

Pretty good hack and slash.

Three Major Design Flaws

Sure the crapy camera can get you killed and the dialog is bad (Heinrich will occasional point out the plot holes in an incredibly humorous way as if he’s channeling the players bewilderment), but the worst problem by far are the QTEs.

I’ve seen some bad button prompting, but these drain all semblance of enjoyment from the otherwise thrilling game. I’m all but convinced it’s imposable to land most of these without knowing what buttons will pop up ahead of time and that’s no guaranty as the game frequently ignores correct inputs.

I really want to recommend this game, but the good just comes with too much baggage.
