I felt disappointed when Team Ninja studio announced that it was ending the Nioh brand for good. However, it soon became clear that they weren't done with the soulslike genre, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty will continue the path of its "predecessors." It was rather successful, although for some unknown reason, this game went by without much of a response. Based on the reviews and player feedback, it seems that the combat system and character development, as well as the vertical level designs, diverse loot, and boss fights, were well-received by everyone. However, this title may be too easy for many genre enthusiasts.

The developers didn't give up on the game even though the sales of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty were visibly weaker. On the contrary, they put in a lot of effort to refine their game, releasing patches every few weeks. In the end, Wo Long didn't revolutionize the genre, but it's still a strong title that should be on fans' radar.

He hasn't yet written a text that he would be 100% satisfied with. He started his adventure with games at the age of 3, when he managed to convince his father to buy a C64 computer. The love for electronic entertainment awakened by Flimbo's Quest blossomed during the first adventures with Heroes of Might & Magic, reaching its peak after purchasing the first PlayStation. As he grew older, he had more encounters with Nintendo portable consoles, and also returned to the PC as an additional gaming platform. He collects games and is a fan of emulation.
