Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age

Интересно. Стилистически что-то между "SkullGirls" и "Street of Rage 4", но во вселенной дизельпанка о чём собственно и кричит само название игры. Игровой процесс - чистый "бэтимап" в духе уже упомянутого "SoR4", но запертый на одной арене с другими участниками по несчастью. Выполнено всё очень стильно и c сознанием дела. Приживётся ли среди неравнодушных жанра? В эпоху 90-х - безусловно да и была бы лидером жанра с кучей продолжений, добавлений и ответвлений. На кануне 2025 года - нет. Стоит покупать поклонникам пиксельного мордобоя? Отвечу за себя - купил в "STEAM" и куплю ещё на "SWITCH". Играть интересно как одному, так и в компании до 4-ёх человек. Стоит ли ознакомится случайно зашедшему? Ну-у, э-э... Тут дело такое, добровольное) В общем... Рекомендую!

Diesel legacy is a game that had a lot going for it solid concept, fun ideas and great art not to say the game doesnt have flaws it does. some characters feel underbanked and fall flat without a teammate, small roster for a 2v2 game, 1v1's have the 2 health bar system...... more of a opinion but that *** sucks ass and colors being locked behind ranked?!!??!?!?!? you get the point the game is has a few flaws but with patches it could be fixed and heavily improved....... well then the devs got merged and got sent to work on avatar leaving this game to receive nothing for 2 YEARS they did say they could come back to this game after but I don't think they will. BE HONEST Would you rather work on the game that will be played at EVO has a active community, loved to death characters and already has dlc lined up.... or the game that the most attention its gotten in the past 4 months is this review. this game is the definition of wasted potential but you know what I really want to be proven wrong GOOD GAME DON'T BUY IT

The last boss Hel makes the game extremely annoying to play - insane projectile spamming, extensive regeneration, the nigh-instant moves it uses almost exclusively and the mostly constant super armor that prevents any kind of non-RNG-based damage-dealing on it. It is like fighting a Blazblue boss with a Pit Fighter character. It is like a coin op game - you can only win when the game decides to not super armor and projectile spam you to death. When you do not want to play the game because the last boss is beyond cheap and such a waste of time to play against, it is a big problem for the attractivity of the overall product. I cannot recommend a game with such a negative fun factor. There is not even pay-off for that specific boss - plotwise or anything else, so the upsides are not there. Here is an attempt to describe what it is like to fight the last boss: you might get some hits in UNLESS it completely shuts you down with the combination of power armor and instant counters. Then the boss goes into invincible mode and regenerates 90 % of the damage it took, even if was 50 % of the life bar. The heavy damage you take from its counters does not regenerate. If you somehow survive to the NEXT ROUND OF THE SAME THING, it goes into super projectile mode and spams purple plasma of extremely heavy damage every 10 seconds or so. Oh and it has a full-screen special where debris falls onto you. The only way you win is that it for no reason drops its super armor and you somehow combo it enough REPEATEDLY (read: the super armor does not drop often and usually you get countered when it is on) to drain all of its health. Most of the last boss fight is not fighting it per se. It is mostly about dodging the nigh-infinite projectile spam that have nigh-zero punishment window, meaning it can start another invincible move after another without any kind of resource limits. A lot of work was put into making the last boss fight not fun. I reward that sadistic effort with a fitting Not Recommended rating. How about putting the effort into making the game run better instead. In fact cutting the last boss fight would alleviate most but not all performance issues. The big red robots are another source of massive frame dropping. You do not want to risk frames dropping in a genre (fighting games) where a single frame matters in terms of inputs. There are slowdowns when bigger enemies or extensive effects are on-screen even in lower resolutions. Also the blocking does not seem work reliably because the arbitrary direction the character is facing towards instead of the direction where the attacks are coming from. I got this game for free from Alienware Arena's monthly Game Vault giveaway.
