This has been my most wanted game since it came out. I never got it or had time for one reason or the other you guys know how that goes but I loved the demo. I’m about 30 hours in, I’ve gone in completely blind, never watched a review, I’ve even avoided thumbnails and have avoided this sub so I can have the freshest playthrough and man, this game has blown me away and exceeded every one of my expectations.
This game is like a combination of my favorite games and favorite elements of gaming. This is MY OPINION but when I played through FF7 Rebirth (a top 2 game of mine) I thought that nobody could ever hit that note again as far as just the vibe and anime/goofy elements. The quirks like the funky music, the way you show off cans when you get them and the goofiness of characters like d1g62r. I don’t know how to describe that vibe other than absurdity but this game nails it albeit in a totally different way. & then it’s such a deep combat system and polished game that takes itself seriously on top of that.. obviously 2 totally different games but I just really appreciate Stellar Blade for what it is because there are so few games that are this quirky/endearing/sexy while also just being a blast to play through and do all of the side content.
To ME, this game is of course its own thing, but it gives me the same feelings that games like Rebirth, Nier Automata, Lies of P and Bayonetta gave me. Feelings that made them some of my favorite games ever. I just can’t stop gushing in my own head about this game and needed to share with someone!! Thank you for reading don’t hate me for the comparisons and mods pls approve my post
