Action RPG

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers has two game editions:

The essence of “The Elder Scrolls” series is most vividly demonstrated in the abridged quests of “Oblivion Remastered“, particularly in the case of the shorter expansion pack, Knights of the Nine. This expansion is present in all editions of “Oblivion Remastered“. One of its quests, titled “Wisdom of the Ages”, encapsulates the spirit of “The Elder Scrolls”. This quest offers lore insights through gameplay, features several intricate dungeon puzzles, encounters with daedra, the Nine Divines, and rewards a powerful item.

It was announced that the renowned game developer had passed away, according to a statement from OnceLost Games, which is LeFay’s studio along with Elder Scrolls co-creator Ted Peterson. LeFay established this studio to produce The Wayward Realms, a contemporary RPG in the style of the classic game Daggerfall.

Delve into the world of “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers“, a fresh action RPG from developer Leenzee. While it undeniably takes cues from its forerunners, it’s aiming to carve out its unique identity. The question arises: what’s it like to play? Does it possess the power to captivate me as Lies of P or Nioh did in the past?

During this journey, you’ll find yourself heavily dependent on your guiding sparrow. Prepare yourself for frequent usage of that button. Initially, adhere to the instructions provided by the guiding spirit, which will lead you towards adversaries. These enemies will keep a creature captive in a cage, so eliminate them and afterward engage with the cage to liberate the animal. To your surprise, it turns out to be Avakot, an interesting character whom you’ll come to know more about as the game progresses.

Last week, it was revealed that LeFay, currently the co-founder and tech producer at OnceLost Games, has chosen to take a break from game development due to a prolonged fight against cancer. He’s opting to focus on being with his family and dear ones during this challenging time.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers” is the debut production of Chinese developer Leenzee. Immersed in Chinese folklore and tales, this game offers a Soulslike experience with an exclusive taste. Assuming the role of Wuchang, a pirate warrior, you’ll find yourself afflicted by a baffling illness called Feathering, compounded by amnesia. Your journey will take you through abandoned temples, ancient ruins, and haunted villages, where you’ll delve deeper into the game’s captivating narrative.

On July 24, the game Fallen Feathers steps into the realm of souls-like games, armed with blades, curses, a stunning environment, and a generous amount of gore. Now that reviews have been published, let’s see what critics have to say about it so far.

Wuchang is a pirate warrior who has lost her memory and is battling a strange disease called Feathering that’s widespread in the land. People with this illness often transform into monsters, but Wuchang retains her human form. Due to her sickness, some people are initially wary or even hostile towards her. Yet, not everyone is hostile, and many non-player characters (NPCs) offer help to Wuchang or ask for her assistance.

To players who are long-time fans of Souls games and unfamiliar with rogue genre titles, Nightreign might seem “unfamiliar” or “different”. Typically, games in the rogue genre originate from smaller studios, so it was unexpected to see one emerge from a larger studio like FromSoft. However, over the past few years, I’ve grown fond of the rogue genre, particularly when it includes multiplayer features. In fact, I found myself pleasantly surprised by how successfully FromSoft incorporated the fast-paced decisions and builds characteristic of roguelikes into their unique style. I initially doubted that a Souls game could offer the same level of addictive gameplay as traditional rogue runs, but Nightreign managed to do just that.
