Yes they are big companies now don't think about fun they only care about how to make more money with microtrazaction dlcs etc... But indi games are super fun lately
Bought this yesterday. The 2nd boss is a fucker! But holds that amazing feeling of accomplishment you get from finally defeating a boss thats been bullying you for hours. Same as dark souls or blood-borne. If u like soulslike games this is a must!
I'm at the last boss right now and completely agree with this review. Nice job!!! Great game for all Souls and Souls-like fans. Don't sleep on this game!
Main dude looks like Gael. I’m in on that alone. 👍 I’ll just imagine that this is what he was doing between the two DLC’s when he was going around gathering his “pigment for the new painting.”
Reviewer here. I died 519 times because fights often only last 30 seconds or so. But you're jumping back in so fast it all rolls together. You're pushing for that perfect three minutes where you FINALLY defeat them. And my 15 hours of playtime includes the very short, minimal side quest content, which is really just chatting with some NPCs, waiting to collect an item, and bringing it back for some buff or dialogue.
Absolutely underrated and overlooked gem. After 150 hours and a few playthroughs of Elden Ring, where the design falls apart the more you think about it, it's nice to have this where the design is consistently amazing the whole way through.
If you value IGN's opinion that why wouldn't you watch the video? If you don't value their opinion, why would you care about the score? These "It's a 8/10" comments are so brain-dead.
Unless you’re 16, on adderal, and on the spectrum don’t bother with this one. Crazy levels of difficulty starting with the 3rd boss. Needs a gradual difficulty slope. Way harder than any souls. And not fun hard, just brutally hard hard.
mainly bosses? what else is there? so there really are not other enemies? only npcs? what a waste of great looking game. would´ve bought it instantly if it was more than a boss rush
The combat is clearly inspired from Bloodborne and the souls games, there are so many games you could apply this comment too but you pciked one that is actually a souls like
Have played it, currently stuck on the third boss, can confirm it is not much like hades or enter the gungeon. It's not fast paced, you have to be ready to dodge ahead of time, much like soulslike games.
People : "come on.. say the thing.."
Reviewer : "😞 Dark Souls"
People : " 🙌..🙌..🙌"
You can’t really blame them on this one though
@@stephenasmithfanfan5971 Exactly, the title itself, "Eldest Souls" in asking for it.
Indie devs are absolutely killing it lately.

Although this game is just mediocre.
The devs dropped out of college to fully make this game. Such dedication
College is a scam...

These new reviewers should be given more games to review
Something about the way this guy talks makes me feel like he doesnt care at all
When is Darkest ring coming out?
Lol!
If the darkest ring is coming out, consult your physician
hahahahahaha
Right before Demon’s Scrolls
Demon ring 2

Third boss, is even tougher.
True that, I've died countless times to this boss. Still such fun experience.
The fourth boss is a nightmare
The fifth and sixth once are ......... hellish
Man tell me about it. My family has heard me yelling “Come Oooon” so many times.
@@purehollow 3rd and 4th are interchangeable which one do you mean
Since eldest souls got released ,When is "Dark Ring" coming on steam...
On it
Eldest Ring
Lol
@@avenell6553 whooosh
Fun fact : Dark Souls was originally supposed to be called Dark Ring but this idea was scrapped bc in some places "dark ring" was a slang for rectum
I'm at the last boss right now and completely agree with this review. Nice job!!! Great game for all Souls and Souls-like fans. Don't sleep on this game!
Can't wait for Titan Ring
Great review, loved the meaty examples of gameplay elements, like how he used free respecs to tailor abilities to the challenge.
The character is reminiscent of War from Darksiders, with that red cowl and giant sword.
Note to indie devs: gaming outlets won't mind the "difficulty" if you call it a "Souls-like" and if it's not exclusive to Xbox.
nothings exclusive to xbox lol
Implying DS is hard. Lul
Who would've thought a niche title like Demon's Souls would've evolved to have such a huge influence on the gaming industry.
right?. We're in the right timeline haha.
we're so lucky xD.
This looks great gonna get this for switch, just hope it will be longer or a dlc be added in the future.
Main dude looks like Gael. I’m in on that alone. 👍 I’ll just imagine that this is what he was doing between the two DLC’s when he was going around gathering his “pigment for the new painting.”
Wow,only 10 bosses and you showed all of them.
Thanks for the review. 🤯
💀
Is it just a boss rush type of game like CupHead? Or are there levels to go through before the bosses?
Just bosses.
its a Boss rush just like Titan Souls, but without the "puzzle" aspect to the bosses
@@HighLanderPonyYT it's a boss rush with 10 bosses but the reviewer took 15 hours on a first playthrough?
@@gabrielloeb8852 that's hilarious
Lil souls, lil Witcher. I’m in
Let’s all take a moment to remember the ancient IGN that would penalize a game for being “unoriginal”
When is it an homage and when is it unoriginal?
When elden ring and dark souls got another sibling from another father
Everyone talking about Dark Souls, but does anyone see the Hyper Light Drifter Influence??
Is this the same guys that made Jotun? It reminds me a lot like that great game.
Ik right lol. When Jotun makes a baby w Morbid 7 Aco's lol
So you died 519 times and it took you 15 hours to beat the game..you died every 1 min and sum 40 sec..

@@josephknoopportfolio just wanted to say you did an excellent job with this review sir
Your logic is flawed
Theres no shame dying in a souls-like game tbh.
Mate your calculation is abit off.
Absolutely underrated and overlooked gem. After 150 hours and a few playthroughs of Elden Ring, where the design falls apart the more you think about it, it's nice to have this where the design is consistently amazing the whole way through.
Feels closer to Jotun (released 2015) than Dark Souls.
It’s May 5 2024 it’s on sale for $4.00 is it worth??
Look Iron Pineapple! the game finally made it in the big leagues!
Gameplay reminds me of zenonia on Android, o used to play that game a lot.
BROO IM GOIN BACK 9 YEARS AAAAAAAAAHHH
Games a classic lowkey
Zenonia 4 was always my favorite
Inotia too.
Looks gorgeous, but nothing but bosses is not for me. Thanks for the review~
This exactly for me, no annoying mobs that bother you everytime you go to the boss.
8-i am the ceo of time saving

These "It's a 8/10" comments are so brain-dead.
Joeseph did amazing with this review.
👍🏻👍🏻
This reminds me a lot of Furi, and thats a great thing
It's more like Jotun.
Just discovered this game while on the store yesterday and the name caught my eye. Glad it isn't one of "those" games due to the similar name.
Just bought it any advice?
When's flight simulator on series X/S review coming?
BTW, what happened to EITR?
Re-customising to Min maxing skills to suit the next boss does not sound like fun for me.
The game would of been an amazing game if they would give us more then one sword
There are other unlockable weapons that have different stats
"In the Beginning"
optimus meme vibe hehe
The Eldest Soul!
OoOoOOOoOHHH, ELDEST SOUL!
Hey Joe wanna play another SOULS game?
Don't forget Titan Souls, a boss rush game.
What game is he referring to in the beginning? Sounds like he is saying "Gwen"
He said Gwyn, as in from dark souls.
Where do you buy it
Is this co op by any chance?
This really is the dark scrolls of elder souls
Gameplay is bit clunky,it works but could be more precise.
That's being generous
Why is half of the script ripped from steam comments
Is this online co op?
Where Eldest Blood
So Hades?
Unless you’re 16, on adderal, and on the spectrum don’t bother with this one. Crazy levels of difficulty starting with the 3rd boss. Needs a gradual difficulty slope. Way harder than any souls. And not fun hard, just brutally hard hard.
(A minute and a half in) I'm sold, buying it now!
Doesn't the game seem so trippy?
Ok so it’s pretty like Furi. 👍
I'll give it a shot when the inevitable Limited Run Games physical edition comes out
Coming on Tuesday🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Shame how they took out the .5 values. Every game gets an 8 nowadays. Looks great all the same.
is this from the titan souls devs?
You would think so, but its not
Ign let real gamer do review now? Keep this one!!
Oooohhhhhhh Eldest Souls
can you have rematches with the bosses at any time?
Cant wait for darken ring
Looks very similar to Titan Souls but a lot more adverse attacks and story
Diverse?
"Makes you feel like both elder scrolls and dark souls" 8/10
-IGN 2021
little something for everyone
Elden Ring too.
Elder Souls 5: Skyfall
So many souls like games nowadays..
I’m hyped for Dark Scrolls
OHHHHH ELDEN...wait wrong game.
more like TITAN....wait wrong game
re up ign???
Does the MC remind anyone else of Guts from BERSERK?
Jotun + Morbid 7 = elddy soulz
Reminds me of Titan souls but with a sword instead of a bow
All of us who read it Elder Scrolls!
Eldest soul? How about Grandma Souls next up?
Does it has an easy mode?
nooo
Thankfully it does not.
It needs a dummy room or practice mode.
mainly bosses? what else is there? so there really are not other enemies? only npcs? what a waste of great looking game. would´ve bought it instantly if it was more than a boss rush
Now this is my kind of Souls Game 😏💀🎮
Is a top down difficult game
The whole review : ITS JUSSSSST LIKE DARK SOULS
The combat is clearly inspired from Bloodborne and the souls games, there are so many games you could apply this comment too but you pciked one that is actually a souls like
From software*
Man if this game had some coop multiplayer it'd be a near perfect game for Switch to me
Wait this whole game is just 10 bosses???
Yes. They made them really difficult too,.to hide how lazy they were
The movement is clunky and not satisfying at all. Death's Door is the better souls-like game of July.
Deaths door is more like zelda not souls like
Also it's not on PS
Flipping off the television after every dub
Cant wait for BLOOD RINGS and ofcorse the spinoff RINGBORNE
Ah yes. Stamina bar, reasonably challenging. Must be a souls-like.
“iT’s tOo hArD maYbE iT sHoULd haVe An eAsY mOde” - said no one ever about a Souls-type game
GitethGudence
The challenge is what makes the reward so much more enjoyable lol
Thank you for this
Thank you for spoiling the whole game
Looks amazing
- Dark Souls
- Elder Ring
- Eldest Souls 😂
It reminds of Ys meets Dark Souls lol
Bethesda won’t like this…..
Man who else clicked on this and thought elden ring
When is "Darkest Scrolls" coming out 🤣
These kind of games should have a difficulty level to chose. It's not fun at all if the games are too difficult
Die-hard From Software fans: no
These games should defenilty NOT have any kind of difficulty levels.
Just learn how to play. Its the point of these games.
If you want casual games, try the Souls series
Elderscrolls vs eldest souls
Can't wait for Vaatividya to steal the lore from redditors on this game.
Redditors are full of dummies
Cant wait for him to bring more recognition to obscure internet commenters
This game looks like a crossover of jotun and morbid
Jotunn was such an amazing game. Truly one of the most under appreciated indie games ever
Ah yes, the isometric sidescroller takes more from bloodborne combat than anything else that comes to mind. Not ETG or Hades no no no, BLOODBORNE
Have played it, currently stuck on the third boss, can confirm it is not much like hades or enter the gungeon. It's not fast paced, you have to be ready to dodge ahead of time, much like soulslike games.
Its Titan Souls with Bloodborne combat (kindof) but in 2D...
lmao when u can wait for the next dark souls and elder ring
