rubbish that is dated and boring. There is no plot, no compelling reason to learn more about the setting, no interest in the dialogue, and nothing particularly noteworthy about the battle system. There is only one in the game: fighting in awkward places with a camera that jumps around unpredictably, where you either can't see anything due to the severe darkness, or you frequently fall into abysses, or a weapon hits a wall and bounces, or all of the above. It does not begin; it only irritates. The fights are all quite straightforward if the terrain of the area does not concern you, in part because everything moves slowly and there are shields everywhere. Given that the genre was still in its infancy, all of the game's flaws can and should be overlooked; nonetheless, the decision to create the game solely in the manner outlined above eliminates any other possibilities and results in a miscarriage. Are you up for a good fight? Play God of War 4 and engage in combat with the Queen Valkyrie. Do not spend your time on Ping if you are not a great fan of the series or are not plagued by nostalgia. Everything here is slow, dull, and as idiotic as possible. The genre has been evolving for a while; Bloodborne, for instance, is excellent despite certain inherited flaws, but not this garbage. I am aware that such remarks are not tolerated by fans, but the subjective opinion following the ping is exactly that—no more, no less.
