Critic reviews
- 6.5A debut title from developers with a rich legacy, can Eternal Strands reach the heights of their past successes?
- 9.0Eternal Strands. A game helmed by Mike Laidlaw, one of the creative minds behind Dragon Age and Mass Effect, promised something special.
- 7.0Eternal Strands doesn't make the best first impression, and certain aspects of it, such as the basics of combat, simply aren't impressive at all.
- 5.0The director of the first three Dragon Age games presents the first title from his new studio and it’s not what you’d expect from a BioWare veteran.
- 7.0GOOD Mixing elements from Breath of the Wild with Shadow of the Colossus sounds amazing on paper, but Eternal Strands somehow renders it a merely average experience.
Gamer reviews
Good game but not great
It is a good game as its made by ex Ubisoft devs who worked on Immortal Fenyx Rising. I have been following this game for very long and it was pretty disappointing when compared to Immortal Fenyx. They could have copy pasted the entire game with a different story like in Norse realm or Egyptian realm and I would have been happy. The gameplay is sometimes irritating, can't skip the 11min credits sequence at the end, some great stuff like loom shard is never properly explained which is very useful. The map is fixed and hard to find hammer icons. You loose your loot if you get killed and can save few each time. The game is very tough, so I switched the difficulty to actually enjoy the game. Its their first game so its alright, I hope the next game they make have better mechanics.
