Do you remember the moment that Sekiro forced you to start playing by its rules? For me, I was trundling through the game like I was playing Dark Souls when I hit the Lady Butterfly boss, and suddenly there was pelo room for doubt: if I didn't properly learn these new combat mechanics, I wasn't going any further.
The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.

But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.
Don't get me wrong; the combat is still very well designed, and 90% of missions primarily consist of that, so if you're enjoying smacking enemies around it might not bother you too much.
A clara inspiração de modo a isso foi Nioh, de que identicamente conjuntamente utiliza 1 sistema bem semelhante, mas isso tira 1 pouco do charme por um Souls e a graça de explorar 1 mundo interconectado e parecer caminhos bem escondidos entre as áreas.
Outra coisa qual também igualmente similarmente identicamente conjuntamente incomoda muito é este fato do progresso em atalhos dentro dos mapas nãeste ficar salvo permanentemente no game, quando comecei a criar backtracking nos mapas anteriores de modo a pegar os colecionáveis da platina, me deparei utilizando todos os atalhos qual eu tinha aberto, completamente fechados.
O único detalhe cá é que as vezes possui um filtro exagerado demais em certas áreas, ao ponto do incomodar visualmente e dificultar para enxergar inimigos e itens.
Esses problemas do balanceamento impactaram amplamente negativamente na minha gameplay, felizmente são coisas simples do se resolver usando 1 patch futuramente, mas fica aqui este sinal de que certas partes do jogo nãeste parecem justas utilizando este jogador.
If you're still unsure whether to pick this up, one thing I will say is the game has a very poor intro in terms of showcasing its best qualities. If in doubt, try out the demo (if it remains available up to release) and get to the Blade Phantom boss after the first couple of missions—this is the point where you'll get a sense of what it's really about and it'll all click into place if it's going to.
Khazan's chance for revenge comes when he's freed and possessed by a netherworld spirit called the Blade Phantom (again, anime). For all you Elden Ring fans, The First Berserker: Khazan this edgy ghost is voiced by Anthony Howell of Margit/Morgott fame, and yes, it is amazing having the Fell Omen pop up and tell you how much you suck when a boss flattens you.
After all, Khazan has some real difficulty spikes. Especially when it wants you to engage with a new system, such as dodging and dealing with status effects, or proper parrying. Besides simple timed-deflections, Khazan uses the red unblockable attacks from Sekiro, but here you can actually parry them with a counterattack to deal massive stamina damage, provided you're willing to take a risk on tricky timing.
Enquanto enfrenta um mundo cheio de criaturas perigosas, ele deve resgatar a honra qual perdeu, precisamente de que isso signifique combater o próprio exército qual outrora este respeitava.
