Steel Rising | A Gamer's Review
5Recently on the channel I played a bit of Thymiesia, a “budget” Souls-Like game and while it was OK I didn’t really connect with it. Still in the mood for a new Souls-like, I saw that Steel Rising was on the horizon and put in a pre-order for it.
I had no real frame of reference for it aside from knowing the style of game it was. I watched 15 seconds of gameplay and was sold enough on it. It’s made by Spiders, the team behind games like Greedfall, The Technomancer and Bound by Flame. Games that I had played, found enjoyment in and mostly finished. Greedfall is the outlier here, I can’t play more than about 20 minutes of that game before feeling motion sick. Something about the camera and its motion just does not agree with me.
Knowing that, I was still excited to give Steel Rising a try and upon my first bootup, I started getting the same feeling of nausea. Luckily, however, I was able to tweak the settings for the camera, so it felt a bit more natural, and I was able to play on.
So what exactly is Steel Rising? It’s an alternate-reality Souls-Like action RPG set in France. You play as an Automaton (robot) named Aegis. Turns out Aegis is the only non-hostile Automaton and is the bodyguard to the Queen. Her mission is to go to Paris and put an end to the King’s robot army. Simple, but enough of a story to carry on.
In typical video game fashion it’s rarely that straight forward...
