Proxy Blade Zero Review
Not Recommended
The game is labeled with "partial controller support", so I would expect this to work best with a keyboard and mouse.
- Even when using keyboard, menus and tutorial presents you with controller keys only
- Using the Steam controller the key actions do not match the displayed keys
- The tutorial is a chore of learning a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of stuff upfront by reading text
- The difficulty/progression takes a sudden spike after 2 minutes when after no previous introduction a strong ranged enemy type is introduced - with two shot death and a limit of four deaths pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Most of this stuff could be forgiven, but nothing else stands out as positive that would make you forgive. Not the graphics, not the tech, not the story, not the audio, not the combat.
