The absolute worst camera I've ever encountered in any video game I've played in my 25 years of existing on this planet. Normally a bad camera isn't enough of an issue for me to mention let alone dock points down for it, but in a game like this; that's all about precision and knowing where your enemy is to continue to chain kills it kinda fucking matters to have a camera that's at least decent and not have god damn inverted controls at that on top of having a mind of its own when you're fighting enemies so it'll start having a fucking seizure to disorient you resulting in you dropping your combo. It's especially bad in boss fights where they're balanced around this mechanic, in fact, practically the entire game is, and it's all ruined because of the camera. I know there's a lock-on and I know you can center the camera with R3, but it really doesn't matter. Because the lock-on is "gradual" with its movement of the camera and not as immediate as you'd like it to be and pushing R3 isn't a perfect solution either. If you have the camera at an awkward up or down angle then it's going to leave it that angle, it's just going to recenter the camera behind your character. All of this and I haven't even mentioned the amount of cheap shots enemies and bosses alike can get on you because you didn't see their attacks coming.
It all culminates to pretty frustrating yet still able to have fun with it experience. All up until the last levels where they get way, way carried the fuck away with bottomless pits, waterfalls that for some reason stagger you if you get too close to them which can ruin your jump leading to an instant death, and obnoxious as fuck enemies that just aren't fun to deal with. I've forgotten to mention up until this point, but I've never really had any sort of issues with depth perception in a video game, but god damn, did this game feel the need to make that an issue as well. I've never had so much trouble judging my jumps than I did in this game. So combine everything I've described then throw it all into one level and they want you to navigate through the level with the air combat getting fucked by the camera and you just made a recipe for I DON'T WANNA PLAY THIS GAME ANYMORE
Look, this game really started off as being extremely fun, tight and rewarding with its gameplay. Oh yeah, did I mention the soundtrack is an absolute banger? Yeah, you should check it out if you haven't already. It's good shit. But good god damn man, they really had to ruin it with this stupid as fuck bullshit. I'm fucking mad man, this game was legit great up until that last level. I haven't even mentioned the one dog shit boss fight that does nothing but waste your time, but fuck that man, that fight wasn't even hard. Just a time waster and annoying. I really tried to pull through with this game cause I liked what I was playing up until then, but I just couldn't do it anymore. They lost me, what a fucking tragedy.
