Alright, so, here’s me trying to wrap my head around “The Deadly Path.” You know how sometimes you get lost in a game? Not like, in a good way, but more like you’re a lost tourist with a map written in some mysterious ancient dialect? That’s kinda what this game feels like. You’re a manager, but not the suit-and-tie type—think more like a chaotic, cosmic puppet kind of deal. Yep, you’re the Custodian for a bunch of eldritch gods. Sounds fun, right? Sort of?
Picture this: you’re piecing together this underworld-bound dungeon while juggling all these creepy old gods’ demands. It’s like a weird game of Twister but with real consequences, and yeah, maybe a tiny bit funny because how else do you survive it?
First off, have you seen the game’s interface? It’s like if a tornado hit a filing cabinet. Info is scattered all over, and just when you think you’ve clicked pause, the game says, “Oh, did you mean GO?” I swear, it’s like those dreams where you try to hit the brakes, and the car just speeds up.
And, while I’m venting here, the difficulty—is it meant to be fair game or just plain mean? It’s not a gentle climb; it’s a spike-filled wall you bang your head against. Miss a step, and you’re basically toast. Unless you’ve been reading up online, it’s trial by fire. Maybe I enjoy a challenge, but this is like reading an IKEA manual in the dark.
And about that grind… man, it’s like dragging a sled through mud. Seriously, unlocking stuff takes forever. Reminds me of when I tried making sourdough starter—ages go by, and you’re left wondering if you’re even doing it right.
Honestly, the pacing’s a mess too. One second you’re watching paint dry as you gather resources, and suddenly it’s panic mode because, surprise, a god’s in a mood. It’s like babysitting a bunch of supernatural toddlers. Not exactly the rhythm I was hoping for.
Despite all this chaos, there’s gold in there somewhere. The game’s look and feel? Chefs kiss. Dark? Yep. Campy? Absolutely. But unless the devs tidy things up a bit, this path isn’t just deadly—it’s downright unforgiving.
So, yeah, if you love a bit of punishment and have a thing for managing cosmic drama, dive right in. Everyone else? Might wanna wait until they patch it up.
Anyway, that’s just my two cents on it. I got this retail copy to check out, so that’s where all this comes from.
