Horrible

Absolute worst game I've ever tried...

When they said this game was trash... they meant it. I thought that maybe they'd be wrong and that the game would turn out to actually be pretty fun. Nope.... graphics were beyond horrible and the gameplay was bad enough to make me wanna vomit. I didn't even feel like I was playing a beta. I felt like I was playing a game that started development and quit halfway through. Maybe that is what happened. Do not waste your time.

I know a lot of people put it down, and say it's bad. However, I still think the game is worth finishing. Yes it's got a lot of mazes and repetativeness like Assassin's Creed, but people still love that game. The graphics are great, the story was nice but short. I just wish the game didn't backtrack so much that you couldn't tell if I was going the right or wrong way. I'd suggest trying it, I liked the style tho later in the game it became to heavily reliant upon shooting more than anything else like weapons. For a game named BLADES it should probably be more melee reliant. Even tho this prob sounds negative I still liked the game, and wish the developers on all games would learn to develop their game instead of push it out early.

When I played the demo version, I thought this game had potential. But no. This is just a bad example of a video game. Repetitive battles, generically cheesy dialogue, and a main character that would only appeal to 13-year-old boys.

The only thing I really liked was the ability to charge your magic instead of having to rely on powerups and whatnot to restore it. And honestly, even the magic becomes painfully obnoxious when you have to watch the exact same animation every time you use a skill.
Every. Single. Time.

Seriously, guys, skip this one. Most definitely not worth it.
