Evergrace - fromsoft's wacky clothing adventure (teddyras)
3This might be the worst fromsoft game I've ever played. They put so many bad ideas into this game from both a story and gameplay perspective. So everything is tied to your gear, including elemental magic attacks which you need to solve puzzles, including the color of your gear and specific items you need to solve puzzles. You also have go to the shop often to buy a new piece of gear that can solve whatever puzzle you need to do because it has the grass attack on it, and you have to listen to the shop music the most. Did I mention the music? Some of it is alright, but a lot of it feels like 2 or 3 songs mashed on top of one another, especially the shop music, which like I mentioned, is the track you hear the most times and sits as the king of crap-song mountain. Also how long it takes to attack is tied to your health, where the less of it you have, the faster you attack. I don't think it makes you attack for less damage, so you almost want to be at mid to lower health so you can just attack faster and not wait for your bar to fill up as long. On top of it all, a lot of levels and boss fights just suck and you can just see the old game design BS in full force.
They also have 2 characters and you have to beat both of their campaigns to get the final mission and beat the game. They don't even play much different and they share most of their areas, so you'll play through areas multiple times. Sharlene starts as a ranged character, but quickly you find melee weapons and they're just better. I don't even remember the story, but it just feels like random things happen, then you fight the bad guys, it aint good lmao.
