Thymesia - Review (Xbox Series)
If I could purge my memories of the opening hour and first major boss encounter, it would be easier to recommend Thymesia (OverBorder Studio/Team17) as one of the better 3D ‘Souls-like games to emerge in some time – especially when you consider it comes from a tiny Taiwanese studio on a limited budget. However, before I could give Thymesia an unreserved recommendation for it's action-oriented combat system and unexpectedly deep upgrade system, OverBorder Studio needs a re-balance patch or two. A smoother, escalating difficulty curve would have made for a more satisfying experience than ramming my head into a brick wall for two hours and then tearing through the remaining content - only occasionally challenged by a mini-boss more deadly than the region boss.
