I’m curious if he is unaware that if you sheath your weapons you move faster which is necessary for higher difficulties! For a review with mostly praise I’m shocked at the 6/10
The first game you got a lot of backlash for your negative review, not surprised you’ve done it again with the second, it’s clear you wanted an easy way to get views again, at the expense of a small indie studio… no journalistic integrity. Also complaining about the difficulty of a game is embarrassing, skill issue.
Damn I though he was going to rate it a 1 lol. He only liked the art direction and even still complained about that. Everything else was negative lmao. Will have to see what other reviews say. Don’t believe they messed up this game that bad
This whole review is a skill issue. Must. Get. Good. The game is fucking awesome so anyone here trying to figure out if its worth it i can tell you with the utmost confidence it is absolutely a must buy and especially for the price point. The first was fucking awesome and this one is as well
Love that every comment is " the first game was amazing" . I agree totally. The first game was probably one of my favourite indie games from last gen ....this is day 1 purchase love it
Wow, way to go to have somebody review a game who obviously hasn't played the first one and hasn't understood it's appeal... Pretty much everything he criticizes is what makes this game great and what people loved about the first one. I get that it's not a game for everyone, but those who liked the first one seem to be getting exactly what they wanted from the second one - having also followed other reviewers. If you're not up for a soulslike then don't play it, but don't give it a bad rating for being what it promises to be...
Right from the video: "Recommended for fans of the first game." Sounds to me like the same thing you're saying, just a lot less emotional reaction. Games shouldn't always be reviewed by the people they appeal to. The point of reviews is to inform people with similar tastes, and everybody is different. If every review is made by people who adore that kind of game, it almost completely defeats the purpose of reviews for those who don't. Which, let's be honest when it comes to a 2D indie Soulslike, is going to be most people. Most people are not going to be into this. You just want to be special and have every reviewer confirm that your tastes are best tastes, and that's just not how the world works, kiddo.
@Reizenpfenning Tell me you didn't watch the review obviously. One of the first things he said is its for fans of the original and he compares it to the first game constantly from personal experience. Sorry your choice of indie game is trash.
if the review score is high then the reviewer did a good job and should be applauded. if the review score is low the reviewer doesn't know what he is saying and is biased and bad.
He’s talking about the stilted voice of the narrator and this dude (ai) has the worst cadence and delivery I’ve ever heard. Beat it gaming bolt. Yall suck.
At no point did he say "stilted". He stated the narration lagged behind where it should have started at one point. But you're a Gen Z claiming people are AI so you're beyond help at this point.
Some parts of review is true but criticizing for the 1st hour of game being hard ? git gud or simply you're not the audience for this game. This guy would rate sekiro 5/10 by this logic Because the mini Ogre boss of sekiro was so hard i died 50+ times to it. Yet still finished the game. All that sekiro has, is reading patterns and getting that 1-2 hits between every interval (i.e weak point ) of enemie atks. It was FUN , the best sword game ever tbh I finished tail of iron 1 too and its combat is 9/10, its similar to sekiro But 2D. and the bad thing of it was lack of 'Free Travel/Portals'. Moving from one part of map to other old parts of maps was boring. Same issue might be present in this game.
As a RPG enthusiast, once again the progression feels too shallow and basic, just like the first game, theres just not enough meat on the bone to satisfy my craving personally, I dont knock anyone who enjoys it but it's just not for me
Bro ur review is complete trash. More focused on trying to get through the game rather than seeing what all the game has to offer. No wonder why they copied off gamerax.
If it’s more of the same I’ll pass. I platinumed this first, was a good time killer/in-between games game. Not a game I finished and was like “dam that was a killer game!”. I was more like “what’s next”, junk food game.
The loot and progression system is so unrewarding and unfun. I don't understand why developers think so complicated and not straight forward. Souls is successful because of its simplicity in the aspects of becoming stronger. In trails of iron 1 + 2 the motivation for that is nonexistent. All in all it's a gamer unfriendly designed game. Pretentious sadly.
I have to recant my opinion i just picked it up this game is great....(I truly enjoyed the first game nevertheless it been slim pickings this month so I'm gonna keep on wishlist wait for price drop an I also got my eye on Mark of the Deep it reminds me of Death's Door which comes out 1-31-25 so ill probably be my last purchase of the Month ,kinda disappointed with your rating but I did some research an 2 other reliable sources gave Tails of Iron 2 under 7 ratings so I'll just wait a little longer)old comment...
Idc about the score I'm getting this game.
Facts had a blast on the first one personally
The second is wonderful 🎉❤… just finished it and I am giddy as a school girl lol 😂
I absolutely loved the first Tails or Iron, so Whiskers of Winter is a day one buy for me.

They mentioned it not doing anything exceptional, so it tracks
Most of this review wasn't praise so you should actually watch the review next time.
@@_Zeruca I did? It seemed like his main complaint was difficulty and shallow platforming which I reply get good!
@@ajs7771 If your response to anything is "get good" you have no valid opinion. Again try watching the review.
@@_ZerucaSkill issue. Get good.
Reviewer has a skill issue.
I feel like that's an old problem he has
3:15 Two of three sword moves he did connected with the enemy and nothing happened. The hitpoints are messed up.
Games garbage clown
The second game is way easier than the first one😂
Bros criticising a soulslike for being hard
He like bitched about one boss?
This indie franchise is one of the best i've ever played !!!

Utterly incompetent and poor review. Game Journalism everybody......
Next time, get a reviewer who actually played the prequels and understands the game nor sucks at it so much
So you want a glazing review?
So, wanting a reviewer to be decent enough at the game to not blame the game for his own skill issues is glazing now? Lol ok tard.
Love that every comment is " the first game was amazing" . I agree totally. The first game was probably one of my favourite indie games from last gen ....this is day 1 purchase love it
Tales of Iron 2: Winter is coming.
Just platinum the first one last week and now THIS! Hell yeah

6:19 skill issue, get better. Oh wait you can’t
Quick tell us all the Dark Souls games you played even though no one cares.
@ honestly W response, I kinda respect that
I'm eye-ing on this one, seems interesting

dude what are u talking about, this game is one of the easier soulslikes. Not difficult at all compared to the other games
Damn a 6😢
Bro ur review is complete trash. More focused on trying to get through the game rather than seeing what all the game has to offer. No wonder why they copied off gamerax.
Next time try harder, your incompetence is showing. This is a pretty awful review, even by 2025 standards.
I love its look so much
It's funner than a 6.
"funner" isn't a real word. Learn proper english.
Not even close to as good as the first one. It’s very disappointing
The walking animation is horrible. The vertical movement gives me headache.
I don't like the adobe illustrator cutout graphics animation.
If it’s more of the same I’ll pass. I platinumed this first, was a good time killer/in-between games game. Not a game I finished and was like “dam that was a killer game!”. I was more like “what’s next”, junk food game.

@@jfinn9827 Me too! I just replayed the first one on bloody whisker mode and it was annoying having to do everything all over again!
People come here for confirmation bias and then get mad when they get the brutal truth instrad 😂👍
The truth is that 2D doesn't lend itself to these kind of games.. and what it wants to be.
I don’t agree, i think nine sols is a great example it can work!
@@Remcodmt And Hollow Knight, one of the best games around.
