Dec. 2024

A great soulslike game that manages to capture the feeling of the early Souls games. While it certainly had a rough start, it's impressive how much the game has improved since its initial release, with massive overhauls to combat and progression that did away with most of the early problems the game had. As far as combat and gameplay goes, it's slower, it's a little janky, but that's if you're comparing it to Elden Ring, it still works well, and giving player the option to animation cancel and not having input queuing puts it a step above some of the earlier Souls Games for me. The environments are vast, hauntingly empty at times, but not barren in terms of content, there's plenty to do, and a great deal of enemy diversity, each zone have distinct themes and atmospheres while still retaining the feeling of being stuck in a megastructure. It's a great 15-20 hour romp and was absolutely worth the time and money invested.

Why don't you play this game? It does everything that dark souls should do. There's more Top level atmosphere. You will be lost. Gameplay is better than dark souls. Weapons with variable stats. Blame! Same music Indie. Few bosses. Short game time. Finished in 20 hours. Support the producer for such quality games. 87

3 dudes made this on a budget and its incredible. The atmosphere, level design, music, build variety are all done extremely well. I could only imagine what this game could be if they had the money to really go all out.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken is a strikingly original and immersive adventure that stands out in the crowded field of Souls-likes. From the moment you step into its dark, violent, and unexplored landscape, you are drawn into an intense journey. The originality of the game's universe is immediately apparent. It's captivating and mesmerizing, offering a lot of tension and a great sense of exploration. The world of Bleak Faith: Forsaken evokes the dystopian and twisted essence of Tsutomu Nihei's masterpiece "BLAME!". This influence is evident in the game's architectural design and atmosphere, which convey a sense of endless, enigmatic structures filled with hidden dangers. Beyond its setup and great art direction, the interconnectivity of the level design is very rewarding, creating a cohesive world where every path leads to new discoveries. The depth of the narrative is another strong point. The story unfolds gradually; it’s a minimalist narrative that doesn’t tell a linear story but invites you to piece it together through deduction, exploration, dialogue, and environmental storytelling, which greatly enhances the immersion. Archangel Studios provides constant support for their game with impressive updates. However, there is still room for improvement: at times, the camera doesn't keep up during boss fights. The controls are a bit slippery, and combat feels a bit floaty. I also find that we experience some friction with the environment, especially in narrow spaces, where our character could instead slide against surfaces and continue moving smoothly. Well worth the dive, Bleak Faith: Forsaken is a gigantic achievement by a very small team. A great game indeed! I'm very much looking forward to what comes next! I hope Archangel Studios will carry on with their vision. Kudos! /!\ Bleak Faith: Forsaken is playable on Steam Deck and has controller support <3.

i understand this game launched in a bad state and has gone through a lot of changes since release but in its current state i enjoyed it a lot. hitboxes and animations are probably what's the most jank in my opinion (though they tend to err on the generous side), so if you're mainly looking for a polished soulslike combat experience maybe pass on this one. however where the game shines are its environments and the sense of discovery they deliver. if "dark souls but it's set in The Megastructure" entices you i highly recommend Bleak Faith, the levels capture the feel of a sprawling structure really well, both in its architecture and the interconnectedness of the world, and the fantastically ominous ambient soundtrack really adds to this. in true soulsborne fashion the story is cryptic and told in sparsely distributed fragments, but now after my first playthrough i do have a gist of what's going on though there are still things left to find all in all gud gam thank you devs :3
