Though thoroughly enjoyable, it never quite extracts itself from the flock of middling Souls-likes - our Flintlock The Siege of Dawn review.
Review - Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a lot of heart, and is more than capable of providing an enjoyable playthrough.
Flintlock's "Souls-lite" approach isn't without flaws, but ultimately works.
NoobFeed editor Azfar Rayan writes - There are some great moments in Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn, but overall, it's just an average ARPG game. It crawls to a halt at the beginning, while the plot and character development fall well short of expectations. I wouldn't call it an exceptional game or anything that really leaps out. It took me just over twenty hours to finish the game on normal while grinding a bit for reputation and resources to upgrade.
I’m enjoying it, almost done. Honestly all the woke freak out was kinda pointless, there’s not much here. Woke or otherwise. It’s suuuuuuppper slow for the first few hours. But it’s got enough cool design elements and the combat is fun enough that I’m enjoying it. Quintessentially AA though. Any good ideas are almost cancelled out by meh ideas and a couple bad ones, leading to a fun but ultimately unimpressive experience. It’s not objectively bad though. Definitely worth a buy on a deep sale or a download for free. Unless you’re a “SBI Detected” person, then just carry on foaming at the mouth like a rabid racoon. 😂
