I only gave it a 2 because the graphics are nice.How to install and play Styx: Master of Shadows ROM (PKG) on a PlayStation 4 Emulator? Hide in a barrel or under a table you say? Oh that would be cool except they check inside every darn time and pull you out of the barrel and cause massive damage. I can't sneak 5 feet without 10 people being notified and instantly finding my position no matter where they were when I made the sound. The AI is obnoxious, i have no idea what these other reviewers are talking about with stupid AI.

Ditto the arrows, you will see the graphic go buzzing by your head but it automatically hit you for damage well before the arrow even gets close to you. In other words if I am behind and enemy who swings forward at thin air, if I am within maybe 5 feet on any side of him it will hit me. There is no physical hit box detection between their blade/arrows and your character model, they merely put a radius around the enemy when they strike that counts as a giant hitbox and if you're standing in it, you get hit. If you aggro a guard, and trust me you will, their attacks cannot miss. So again I point at poor programming (as a game developer I feel I have a fairly keen sense of when a team either sucks or is lazy with their programming) for another major annoyance. This is astonishingly stupid and frustrating.if you are going to build in AI that detects a door is open that shouldn't be, then allow the player to close the door behind them. Opening but not being able to close doors. I have never played a stealth game where noticing a torch is out counts as a detection. For example if you put out a torch at a distance with sand (one of the main moves in the game) and the guard sees the torch went out its an automatic failure for mission objectives that require you to remain undetected. The game is about stealth, yet many of the 'stealth' moves don't work. This game needs a quick reload option with the ability to quick save because you will literally be restarting hundreds of times per level during the later parts of the game. Even on the easiest level they will easily detect you. Guards are waaaaaaaaaay to aware of your presence. Way too many enemies, some areas are just littered with guards (upwards 10 at once is not uncommon) so if you are detected (which its quire nearly impossible not to be) you have a crap ton of guards coming after you with no way to defend against it. The camera is jittery and choppy, they put no smoothing as you look around the stage, leads to choppy gameplay and just feels very very cheap. Here is a list of what I absolutely HATED about this game: 1. This game is complete crap in my opinion and I am a fan and avid player of stealth games.
