Each day the remaining human population dwindles as they are forced to choose a side or die.
This perpetual war is fueled by human souls that the gods use to create their warriors Myrgato twisting souls into demons, and Alagath manipulating souls to create angels. Since this event Myrgato has been at war with her twin sister, Alagath the goddess of light.
Over 40 years ago, the goddess Valdis was killed by her daughter, the dark goddess Myrgato. There are many customizable skills and equipment that will aid Wyatt on his journey. Battle various types of demons, angels, and a new threat known only as the “Ferals”, using swordsmanship, martial arts, and sorcery. Valdis is a solid metroidvania, but its little flaws all add up and cant be ignored.Assume the role of Wyatt in this Action/Exploration Platformer as you explore the ruins of a holy city that was lost many years ago. I have only beaten the game with 1 of the 4 available characters, each one having different stories and wildly different gameplay styles. They are the highlights of the game for me, for their diversity and enjoyability. The game has a lot of fun boss fights, which tend to have huge health pools and challenging. Another thing that has no excuse is the absence of a true world map, which just sucks. Stuff like hitboxes and grabbing the edge of cliffs and certain wall jumps frequently fail. There is also the issue that the transversal mechanics feel unpolished at times. Its not like metroid for instance, in which you are exploring alien facilities so the labyrinthic level design makes sense, but here it doesnt and its jarring.
It doesnt feel like a real world though, even towns feel very segmented and gamey. The level designed is good, with a lot of secrets you need to backtrack to reach.
Its also too chaotic to fight enemies when they are in groups, it ends up being mashing rather than anything else. Which unfortunatly the game likes to throw groups of enemies at you, at times completly stunning you to death. The enemies are tought to fight against, as their projectiles and attacks are fast, and they can be troublesome in groups. There is a lot of tools at your disposal. The game uses a surprisingly deep combat system, featuring melee attacks (including air juggling), spells, allies and focus mode. Its a game that has a good core, but also has a lot of small flaws that can often make it frustrating to play. A pretty good, but not great metroidvania.
