    The Last Oricru is nothing more than another Soulslike but it makes an effort to stand out from other games due to its story. Throughout the adventure we will feel that our important decisions have consequences. With very simple mechanics, this is still a very interesting game even with friends.

    I believe The Last Oricru is worth your time because it offers a truly interesting way of shaping its story. But first, the developers have to eliminate tons of bugs and fix the game's performance. Only then it will be a good RPG.

    The Last Oricru is a fun storytelling experience told through the eyes of the Souls-like genre. It’s great to see everyone working for their own ends, and not being able to identify who is good and bad from the start. Focusing purely on what you think is most advantageous creates a story that fits your own personality well. But everything else is a regular Souls-like experience from top to bottom. There are attempts to stand out, but other than the story, they don’t have the impact that really leaves a positive impression in a player’s mind. The Last Oricru takes some risks, some of which pay off and some that don’t. It’s perfect for those who like their Souls-like games to have a good story, but if you’re not a fan of the genre, you’re better off staying away.

    The Last Onicru features some cool narrative choice work, putting some true impact on your choices. If you can get on board with the cheeky dialogue and peculiar main character, you should be able to overlook the lackadaisical combat.

    The Last Oricru has some decent ideas and will scratch an itch for fans of Risen, but it’s not quite good enough to overshadow its peers.

    The Last Oricru, is a problematic game in every aspect. The plot is not exciting, the gameplay suffers from the cumbersome control system, and the graphics are not up to today's standards. Co-op and interesting character development are not enough to save the game from insufficiency.

    Another drop in the vast ocean of action RPG’s, The Last Oricru brings nothing new to the much-treaded waters. Worse still, it lacks the refinement and polish to make it a barely passable romp, feeling as rough around the edges as Alpha Protocol did back in the day.

The story is incredible, the decisions i made in the game actually matter!! The art style and sceneries look really nice. This is actually one game from many that clogged my PS5 with screenshots..Dialogues between characters are perfectly written and well thought out, which is rare..I was pleasently surprised by this game!… Expand

    I feel like this game is going to be overlooked by the masses. Graphics aren't the greatest. Has mechanics similar to the Souls games, yetI feel like this game is going to be overlooked by the masses. Graphics aren't the greatest. Has mechanics similar to the Souls games, yet more forgiving. Save points that respawn all enemies, die and your essence is where you died... etc. Spilt screen is great, but share inventory.

    Pros: Great story and choices make a difference. Split screen (yes couch co-op). It was not incredibly long, but to get all trophies would have to playthrough it multiple times. It was fun in a laid back not overly stressful game. Not $70

    Cons..Reading the quest log is near impossible, sometimes you have no idea where going next. Tales a lot of materials to upgrade weapons and armor and to do so would lead to grinding . Graphic snobs won't be blown away. Repetitive opponents.    … Expand

    Weak story, insufferable protagonist, and barebones souls-like systems, The Last Oricru does not bring anything new to the genre.
