Despite Its Flaws, The First Berserker: Khazan Is A CRACKING Soulslike
Nexon and Neople’s The First Berserker: Khazan is the latest in an endless line of Soulslike action RPGs, and as several reviews (including our very own) have said, it’s a game with quite a few strengths, as well as several weaknesses.
Where its flaws are concerned, The First Berserker is often let down by quite a few significant ones, from its limited exploration and overly linear level design to its bland protagonist, uninteresting storytelling, and more.
Luckily, however, in a lot of areas that many might argue are of chief importance to a Soulslike, The First Berserker impresses. With stunning combat, unforgettable boss fights, grueling difficulty, and engaging progression, there’s a lot to like here for fans of Soulslike action games.
