In short, an evil force has overwhelmed a mystical land and your job, as the standard-issue saviour of everyone and everything, is to un-overwhelm it by firing arrows at huge cursed creatures. The plot of The Pathless is not the most fantastically original, but provides just enough of a pretext to run really fast around a field doing cool stuff. However, here we are, and Giant Squid, together with publisher Annapurna Interactive, has brought us yet another enormous open world squished lovingly onto a handheld screen. The game provided the kind of audiovisual spectacle that would satisfy early adopters hankering after something to show off their next-gen kit, so you’d be forgiven for thinking a Switch port was entirely improbable. Overall there is quite a difference on how the game is presented and how it plays, if you have doubt about buying pathless but still want to play a fast paced game with striking environment, i would much rather recommend Solar Ash, its funny because it has very similar mechanics (in movement and explorations, not bow stuff tho) Solar Ash mechanics and activities work perfectly hands in hands, where pathless activities feel more like a desperate way to fill a void around the main game mechanics, quite sad.Having hit it out of the (water) park with its debut ABZÛ in 2016, Giant Squid landed The Pathless on PS5 just as the console launched in November 2020. and the puzzle are not interesting at all, its the AAA "we put a puzzle here to fill the void in our level design, otherwise the player will be bored" type of puzzles the kind that can get really annoying, its pretty devastating to see that the main mechanics (movement) are totally in desync with the main activities (puzzles), when i entered the third zone and the game asked me to do even more boring puzzle, i was done. If it isn't clear, the main mechanics of the game (movement, exploration) are quite secondary, puzzle, being the main activity since apart from puzzle ruins there is pretty much nothing to do. repeat the process until you have enough talismant to fight the boss, go to the next zone and repeat. you find the ruin, solve a basic ubisoft type puzzle you wander, searching for ruins (aren't very hard to find, easy to navigate in the field, you just have to avoid the red cloud, even then it doesn't impact you as much as you think if you get caught) you enter a zone, to access the boss you must activate X towers and to activate those towers you must gather X numbers of talisman, and to acquire those talisman you must find ruins and resolve puzzles is it really an adventure exploration games ? because most of the time you will do puzzles, let me explain very linear, i personnaly didn't liked it because i though that fights would be less linear and scripted, but i can see people enjoying fight against bosses The movement mechanics are really nice and simple, movement in general flows really well, the art and the environement is very nice (although if you already played games like ABZU and Journey, there isn't going to be much new for you)īosses are. quite boring sorry, i really really try to enjoy the game, but i truly couldn't Learn more and join the discussion on our Official Giant Squid Discord Server But beware- this land is also home to massive leviathans that will stand in your way.
