Japanese games and full 3d; name a worse duo.
Russian and Chinese shovelware are much worse.
Broken, softlocks, bugs..
But this game..
Visually it's asset-flip and various random shit models from the internet. But technically it works. Combat system, crafting, inventory, saves, lot of settings, even keybind.. Everything is well programmed, it's just very basic a feels dumb. Souls-like system then makes the game painfully slow. If the dev had stuck to the classic "click em all" like in the previous game, it would have worked better, more action/speed.
