NEXON has shared a video, showcasing the first 15 minutes of its upcoming hardcore action RPG that is inspired by Dark Souls and Sekiro, The First Berserker: Khazan.
Khazan borrows heavily from Team Ninja's work, both for good and bad (but mostly good).
overlong runtime? Its an average runtime for this type of game...All the Dark Souls games, Bloodborne, Nioh..all have around similar runtimes.. between 30-60 hours... Khazan is about 35-40..so what are you talking about.. 😒
"The First Berserker: Khazan features some tight combat and an interesting presentation, but is hit hard by a botched main story and repetitive content."
- Stuart Cullen, TechStomper
I’ll say the difficulty of this game ruined my enjoyment. I think they had something here, but it was way too frustrating for me to have much fun with. I also got tired of the environments. Things started to look sort of the same.
I do think boss designs were cool, but man, playing the final boss for hours upon hours until I barely got through did not leave me satisfied with the experience. If anything, it made me less inclined to replay it.
Great game but the boss fights are just too long and you dont have a lot of margin for error, so you have to be on point for ages, got burn out on this one at chaos, and i heard it gets worse
Gaming Respawn reviews The First Berserker: Khazan.
On one hand it's yet another Souls like. On the other, I really like the cellshade style and nordic settings are my weak spot.
