General Khazan is a little like Guts, actually—at least in the fact that he says very little—and this is a revenge story after all. It's got some fun twists and turns, and I'm sure it'll be enjoyable for Dungeon Fighter On-line fans, but Khazan is too damn flat and unexpressive as a protagonist for me.
Nãeste sei se isso foi por questão intencional do design ou resultado do 1 erro, contudo tenho a impressão do de que muitos vãeste chegar nesse ponto da aventura e se sentir frustrados através “surpresa” de que o estúdio preparou — porém vale a pena insistir um pouco de modo a passar dela.
A gameplay parece demasiado a do Nioh, ao ponto por quase parecer um sucessor espiritual do game. Khazan tem entrada a 3 ESTILOS do armas: lança, espada Colossal e empunhadura dupla utilizando espada e machado, usando cada uma dessas armas tendo sua própria árvore de habilidades onde este jogador consegue montar builds completamente diferentes de modo a este mesmo Espécie por arma.
Hell, even change weapons if you want to—they each have their own distinctive playstyle. Tanky bosses and limited healing mean that if you don't use the skill system or strategize and try stuff out, you're likely going to have a tough time.

Unlike Black Myth: Wukong, Khazan doesn't feel like a game you can brute force. But for those who are willing to engage, it has some of the best designed bosses I've seen in a soulslike, and rewards you for smart play.
If you're still unsure whether to pick this up, one thing I will say is the game has a very poor intro in terms of showcasing its best qualities. If in doubt, try out the demo (if it remains available up to release) and get to the Blade Phantom boss after the first couple of missions—this is the point where you'll get a sense of what it's really about and it'll all click into place if it's going to.
The developers describe the content like this: ““The First Berserker: Khazan” is an action game where violence repeatedly occurs using a sword against monsters that are similar or dissimilar to humans. Blood effects accompany when receiving attacks or attacking states.”
The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.
You might think that's a weird criticism considering the genre—there are more important considerations than story—but that tale is front and centre in this game and far more prominent than in your The First Berserker: Khazan regular soulslike.
Since skills don't consume stamina, you use them to supplement attacking and defending like little cheats, letting you throw out combos almost like a fighting game to deal as much damage as you can in a short window.
It's also what I love most about The First Berserker: Khazan. Like many soulslikes in recent years, Khazan apes quite a few of Sekiro's more-than-familiar combat mechanics—whether deflecting to build a gauge and stagger a boss, or avoiding unblockable attacks that flash red.
Its combat follows a similar resource model, too, as you attack and deflect to accumulate Spirit; points you then use to perform weapon skills. Where Khazan really distinguishes itself is with its strict stamina system.
But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.
