The platforming has improved, it still has a couple issues that it doesn't grab the ledge you're trying to jump to, but I have almost never experienced it. In this game you have a lot more options than you have in the first game, if you see an entrance and it's guarded, there are always multiple options for you to enter a room. You don't need to play Styx MoS to understand the story of Styx SoD, but I think you should play it to understand the character Styx. The gameplay in Styx MoS is not as good as in Styx SoD, but the story of the first game is absolutely incredible. However, if you like this game I'd recommend you to play Styx MoS.
This game is a huge improvement to the first game: Styx Master of Shadows. This game is amazing, if you are a fan of hardcore stealth games then you need to have this game. Overall, Styx is not a game of the year production but if you are looking for a challenging and stealth adventure reminiscent of stealth games from the past, you can't go wrong with Styx: Shards of Darkness. Ubisoft and other big budget developers could learn from Styx. There are weaker parts of Styx, the voice acting and sound can leave something to desire but this is to be expected from a smaller low budget title. The parkour requires timing and precision, people writing negative reviews are used to the Assassin's Creed style of parkour which offers no real challenge except the press of a simple button. The stealth AI reminds me of the early Metal Gear Solid titles where you must use the environment to conceal yourself, hiding bodies and extinguishing sources of light as you sneak. The enemy detection and AI in this game are excellent, guards will search and scour an area if they detect the slightest sound or see a figure lurking in the shadows. You will find no scripted events, boring tailgating missions or magic concealment bushes here. From Thief to Metal Gear Solid, third-person stealth games have become less challenging to cater to everyone, and the AI has decreased in quality.Īlong comes Styx, a fantasy stealth adventure that offers a challenge. Styx is a rare breed for stealth games, it offers a challenge in a genre that has dumbed down for the mainstream.
