Mortal Shell Critique | A Diamond In The Rough

#MortalShellCritique #MortalShellReview #MortalShell An analysis of Mortal Shell - did it live up to my hype? Short answer - yes. Praise the parry, the unchained can't fly, and please god, help Redgrave. SOCIAL MEDIA: www.twitter.com/MontyZander PATREON:   / montyzander   It’s appropriate that Mortal Shell’s trailer tells us we “seem different,” because when I began to hear about its mechanics, I thought the same thing about you Mortal Shell! I love Dark Souls & Bloodborne. Love them. The lore, the visceral combat, the atmosphere, it’s enough to make a grown man cry when you find a game series like this that seizes you by the throat and tells you you're going to like this or die trying. And I always like it. Maybe it’s the masochist in me – who knows. Souls-likes however often miss the mark for me. I’ve tried a lot of them, too. Lords of The Fallen? The combat’s so sluggish I was ready to feed my console some lettuce. Nioh? I despised the world and the level design. It felt like a discount FromSoftware game. The Surge I wanted so desperately to love but again – the world just didn’t engage me. I felt like I was fighting through factory after factory for the first 10 hours I tried the game and ultimately never finished it. Mortal Shell is the exception. So here's my critique and review of the game.
