SteamDolls Order Of Chaos Steam Steam Early Access Preview Cons:
- No Steam achievements.
- The mouse cursor stays on the screen even when using the controller.
- You cannot skip every cutscene.
- The color palette can be very intrusive and off-putting. It clashes with backgrounds and enemies making it an eye sore.
- Scenery in the foreground can obscure enemies, and pickups, and generally get in the way.
- Enemies are very damaged spongey and fights go on for a lot longer than you would think.
- Combat is just mashy and doesn’t feel good.
- You never feel confident in what you can and cannot break so you just end up trying everything.
- Performance is a bit up and down.
- The save file doesn’t say progress or anything so if you have a couple then you will get confused.
- I don’t always find the world design to be that clear or organized.
- Checkpoints are far away so it’s a lot of replaying the same part over and over.
- Combat is messy.
