Summary

Rise of the Rōnin is a combat focused open-world action RPG that takes place in Japan at a time of great change. It is the very end of a 300-year long Edo Period, commonly known as “Bakumatsu”. Set in the late 19th century, Japan is facing the darkest of times as it struggles with its oppressive rulers and deadly diseases while western influence permeates as civil war continues to rage between the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Anti-Shogunate factions.

Graphics aren't great but that's not a dealbreaker for me. The combat looks and feels great but there's nothing else worth seeing in this game. Quickly gets boring.

Story
1/10
The usual team Ninja incomprehensible stories

Graphics & art style
1/10
Not acceptable, indie games that are developed by 1 guy has a better graphics

Open world and level design
4/10
Much worse than AC.


Side content
3/10 extremely repetitive, but you can pet 100 cats which is nice

Ost
2/10

Performance
5/10
For a game where combat ia the only thing going for it, it’s bad and not smooth.. I know this developer support their games and they will end up with a great performance eventually but I paid $70 and I expect a complete game.

Combat
8/10
Its fun but cannot carry the game by itself and also Nioh 2 still is much better, even

Overall
I regret my purchase and i’m very disappointed as a Team Ninja fan

Didn't feel good to play, and feels way too lost in the cracks between big games like ghost of tsushima, sekiro, and assassin's crees

I got the Platinum trophy of the game, since I obtained a lot of trophies in the end of the game. It may be easy but also rough at same time.

The main story of the game:
It’s decent but not bad as Wo Long and Stranger Of Paradise, yet they didn’t delivered their promise when they said the story will be deeper and the choices may impact the story but unfortunately there’s not. The only impact you’ll get by finishing the bond missions that’s it really. The romance in the game it’s completely a joke that doesn’t impact anything or it will do anything.

The gameplay:
It’s obviously Team Ninja that’s their strength nothing to say about it. I really enjoyed it.


Exploration:
One of the worst aspects in the game
Bland world with Ubisoft stuff divided into 3 maps with repetitive side activities and rough loots.

Overall I enjoyed the game, yet 70$ is too much of such a decent game that can be played on the older generation nothing unique about it. 7 years of development they said such a disappointed really.
