The Beat Up #26 - Knights of the Round (PS4) Lancelot play-through 427430 pts
2Playing through Knights of the Round in "Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle" as Lancelot!
I had passed this one over because it felt slow and kind of dingy, with dull colors and tiny characters, compared to well Captain Commando, in the same collection.
But once you get over that stuff, it's actually really well done! The bosses aren't usually too cheap, and the AI is actually pretty good at edging around to outflank you, keeping you constantly on your toes and having to know when to try to outmaneuver them, bull through them (enemies knocked back clonk into other enemies, making this really fun and effective), or jump away.
As with Warriors of Fate, I'm not too fond of the restrictive-feeling combat from horseback, but it's easy enough to avoid if you want to.
It's really long for an arcade beat 'em up! But come to think of it, still didn't feel too repetitive, a fairly remarkable feat.
