What a refreshing review. I really feel VR is like the old days of video gaming. Companies trying things and making games because it’s their passion, not to trick us into buying loot boxes.
Yeah that's why I liked PSVR1. Instead of the same bland PS4 games, there was experimentation. A lot of smaller games felt like they were just starting from scratch like the PS1/N64 era beginning of 3D gaming. I love the graphics in this one. My PSVR2 headset was collecting dust since RE:4 I have not used it at all. Glad to find out about this one.
@@WithoutParoleyour reviews just have really good quality. Even conclusion about pluses and cons and 0-10 out of 10 rating alone is made very clear + the review doesn't have robotic voice
Between having a 4 year old zipping around my house faster than a caffeinated squirrel and a minor head injury that leaves the headset resting crooked on my noggin, this review is like dangling a corndog in front of a starving man.
Brian, from the quality of your reviews, to the fact you are a constant professional and stretched so thin with minimal staff. Blows me away, how consistent the quality of your videos always are!! Chefs kiss! Excellent as always 👌
As someone who has Swordsmen VR as my most played VR game this is going to be awesome. And thank you for uploading a solid review of the game and keeping me up to date with PSVR2 news and release, your videos are the best for PSVR2 users
I loved swordsman VR but unfortunately like the poster said once you get through the awesome physics and swords play it's just a VR arena game, there's no adventure there's no mystery or magic, you chose what enemy or faction you want to fight from a menu then it just plops you down face to face with your foe, there's no seeing your enemy from a distance or planning your next move, that's one thing Arashi castles of sin was cool for you could traverse these levels and see your foe at a distance and decide to use stealth, charge full on with melee or stand back and use ranged attacks. I'm probably going to get legendary tales today, I havnt played a good VR game since Arashi and Arizona sunshine 2, both of which I beat in a matter of days, and as a huge fan of adventure RPGs like skyrim, looking forward to trying this one out
@@mattb9054 You enjoyed Arashi? I heard not great things about it at launch and decided to wait but might have to pick it up. I have only managed to play around 5-10 hours of legendary tales and it is really solid especially for a VR RPG.
Wow great review ! I’m buying this today! I didn’t even realize we were getting this, I haven’t heard anything about it something just posted your review on FB and I seen the 9.7 review and co-op and yeah is the type of game the PSVR 2 needed! Man I’m loving my PSVR2! I don’t even play flat games anymore nothing wows me like VR does! There so many great games and new ones coming out all the damn time! I don’t have the time to complete the games before a new gear one comes out I must buy! Really looking forward to the PSVR2 future!
Picked up day one. Will be a while before i check out due to backlog, but wanted to support this kind of great work from a small developer at full price.
The PC version was half the price till a couple of weeks ago (which I was going to buy) Whilst it might not affect you I personally wont support the game because of this.
Regarding your crouch comment, I actually like that you have to physically crouch to make it happen in the game. And if you get the Stealth ability, crouching in reality (or sitting on your couch) triggers a Skyrim- style stealth mode!
Awesome review with a great explanations of what the core game is like! I typically need a story to keep me invested after I get used to the gameplay, but I would still like to try it out when it goes on sale. Thanks for the review!
So, worse than Ancient dungeon 😆 I don't know whether to wait for a sale because the price is quite high. The graphics are average, dark and raw, but I appreciate that it is 90 fps and high resolution. I don't think I'm going to play online.
I just saw it in the store and was like, i think that is for me. Thanks for always being a reliable and consistent creator. I just knew you would have this here.
Yep. It makes roasting meat at a campfire next to impossible. The only way is to pause the game, rescan your entire playspace to reset the floor position, cook your meat, then repeat the entire process to lower the 'floor' again. Seated mode and a crouch button should be considered an essential requirement in ALL vr games.
this looks good, but really i must say, it doesn't look $55 or $60 good , the lack of seated mode might be a problem, lack of enemy variety and the bit of lackluster graphics, this looks like an awesome 10/10 game if it was, let us say , $35 to $40....so i have an idea, wishlisted, will wait a bit, they iron it out, maybe add some quality of life stuff in it and i see a nice %25 discount on it maybe ? not craping on it, but Vertigo 2 for example was $26 and that hit the sweet spot for me, i wouldn't mind paying $10 to $15 more for the more hours, but $55....kinda steep for me, but i am intersted so will see or rather sleep on it tonight and see...
Devs said in the reddit AMA that they're going to provide technical support updates but at this time don't have any plans for new content in the future. Could change depending on sales though.
@@plo617 i am also hearing so many people dropping it after around 10 hours due to boredom and lack of enemy variation, the game starts great but offers nothing new (so i heard) , so yeah, i tell u, if it was $35, would have picked it up, so wishlised and waiting .
Thanks for the review. It looks interesting for the PSVR2 library and I see many are very excited about a dungeon crawler RPG, so that’s great!, although I’m not sure I can justify $60 with my backlog, environments look a little too samey and variety of enemies is quite small. Great it’s native 90, one for the wishlist for now
I love the look of this. My Mrs loves the look of this. You've rated the game highly with lots of praise & excitement (assuming the bugs are fixed). We both have PSVR 2's... It's co op... I think it's safe to say we need to get this game! ❤
Wow. This is everything I’ve wanted in VR since Skyrim. And to think, I wrote off the announcement this title, thinking it was more VR shovelware. 100% buying this.
I always find it funny when I’m scrolling through comments and see people asking questions that you’re simultaneously answering very specifically in the video while I’m reading the comments lol. Almost as if people aren’t listening while they’re commenting. 😂
Thanks Bryan! Looks interesting. Can you tell me more about the outdoor environments? Is there a day/night cycle? From the footage it kind of looks like everything is at night. I'm just worried that combined with the darkness of the dungeon a constant nighttime outdoors might feel a bit one-note. And is there decent enemy variety? What about variety of landscape? I'm a big exploration guy and I am hoping to see some mountains, valleys, cool buildings and whatnot. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on those things.
The outdoor overworld is cool (although as I said in the review it's not quite as big as it initially seems) but no, there's no day/night cycle and not a ton of variety. It looks good but it's certainly not going to be extreme differences from one end of the map to the other. Even the dungeons all kind of look like caves until you start getting closer to the end of the game. I'm an explorer in games too and I think my satisfaction in LT came from leveling up and being strong enough to progress and see what's around the next corner - and get to the next dungeon of course. Hope that helps! :D
Lol... yes, thanks for saying what I've been thinking. It's neither Dark Souls nor Skyrim. It simply has difficulty, ambiance, multi-player, combat physics and some RPG depth. But let's not get too ahead of ourselves as it doesn't appear to have too much else!@@kart3288
So hyped..bargain price for the size of it. 100% buying this tomorrow. This is exactly what ive craved, just a desolate grindathon that always gives u a reason to keep playing with constant upgrades. Sounds bloody brilliant. Hopefully the devs are listening re a crouch button tho, for those who much prefer (or have to) play seated (tho obvs u can already, with a little jank)
I had a good feeling you'd like this. This is one of the best dungeon crawlers on pcvr imo. I knew it wasn't a meta title (thank god)...so I know you'll get a solid port. Just wait until they add more! Pcvr psvr 2 crossplay..what more could you ask for!!?!! Great score by the way. For people thinking its too expensive..just wait for sale..im pretty sure it drops to 34.99 on steam.
Seriously is it really worth waiting just to save a 20 bill so you can play it once everyone else has beaten the hell out of it, and you have no one your level left to enjoy the newness with..?? Really? I donno.. :) ..If it runs smooth❤ at launch im in day one. Good luck. :)
@@avaron_VR_Gamecat i agree but some people are not feeling the price point. To me its a day 1 buy. I've had legendary tales since it released on steam and its just got better and better over time. Excellent game..Good luck!
Was definitely waiting on your review , especially with this being priced much higher than the majority of games. Thanks for all you do for the PSVR community 🤘
If this had the more interactive environment from blade and sorcery it would be the best vr game ever imo. Love the combat but i miss climbing environments by superheating my sword and stabbing it into solid stone, being able to jump with a button, and enemy bodies despawn a bit fast. But i will say the combat itself feels so much smoother to me than blade and sorcery and the weapon collision feels so much more consistent. Really enjoy the game and plan to get my money's worth
The game looks incredible and I was totally sold but not sure now. It blows my mind that there is no seated mode in a game like this. With my back pain, I can hardly play a VR game stood for more than 10 mins without having to sit down. 50 hour game playing stood up???
Thanks again for another awesome review! I was planning to wait a little on this one, but now...I don't think I can! I have so many good PSVR2 games that I'm playing these days and I'm still a long way from completing some of them--now this! Haha, it's a great "problem" to have.
If it wasn't for my backlog and the incoming FFVII Rebirth, I'd be picking this up at launch. Alas it'll have to wait a while, even though this is exactly what I've been looking for in a vr game ☮️❤️✌️
I’ll be picking this one up because it’s the closest thing we’ll have to Skyrim from PSVR1 which was S-tier. Hopes of a PSVR2 port are out of the question. Also, co-op!
@@PalmBeachGaming561nah, check again. It was only released early during PSVR1. It’s great, but very limited by the Move Controllers capabilities. Sadly, Bethesda was purchased by Microsoft before PSVR2 released and there’s no hope of a PSVR2 port.
Indeed, coming out of Steam Early Access usually bumps up the price 5-15 dollars or so. But with Legendary Tales it was legit 2 full years of improvements that changed the game completely, not just a minor update pushing it to v1.0.
Ok, so the cons aren't that bad for me. I plan to play it solo, so the lag is not an issue. I like to manually crouch even if there is a crouch button for better immersion. Respect my character? is that by losing your save? - Might be patched.
YES A VR GAME WORTH GETTING FINALLY! I had a good feeling about this the day it was shown off on the state of play and I am glad to see I was right on the money with that feeling. It has been too long since a game like this appeared on VR and being spoiled with the likes of Asgard's Wrath on Quest 2 and Skyrim VR in original PSVR, I was dying for a new experience in high fidelity on PSVR2 as so far every game has either been lack luster reviewed, broken or just not optimized properly. The fact this is co op only sweetens the pot for me as I have been looking for a VR game like Zenith to sink hours into with other people, this looked like the very game to do just that and I am more then happy that this is true. This is a DAY ONE BUY for me and not something I normally do as I have been let down countless times before this and hate digital distribution, opting to wait for physical versions of game before playing. As you can tell my collection of VR games is...nothing to write home about but I have had fun with more then a few of them. I am now able to trust in one title to deliver what it promises and was super excited to see this review validate my thoughts. Excellent review as always parole crew its why I ALWAYS look forwards to your reviews and this week segements on youtube, keep at it!
In the future, could you add if the game is available physically or not at the end? Im only interested in physical games and have loved this channel for showing me games i never knew came out to add to my collection
Hey there! I've been asked this before but there are 2 problems with it. The first is that almost no PSVR2 games actually have physical releases (even COTM didn't). And the other problem is that most physical releases come way later than the digital version (from Perp Games or Limited Run) which means the review would suddenly be outdated. I wish the news was better but we're gonna see way fewer physical games this generation, especially with the Digital-only PS5 around
I hear you.. Luckly in this case the game is only 7gigs to download you can even download that on a 15 dollar a month phone plan... But i agree that gaming does need physical disc games too because some games are over 200 gigs to download and that would be absolute hell on a phone data plan. I think most VR games are pretty manageable size wise with just phone data plans, but big games are impossible which is why physical discs need to exist for that and because the actual console itself is sold in stores - so a small section of disc games should be required to be sold too right next to the console. The fact that greedy companies try to make games digital only should be a government mandated law against that as it is anti-Consumer trade practices like Meta selling you a VR headset "in stores" but no disc games on the rack next to it forcing you into their online store ONLY. Anti consumer trade practices like this need to be limited now before its to late because "movie theatres", and "games", and most importantly "free over air TV" can all be killed by this type of monopolistic future that WILL come if it isnt limited now. BEFORE its to late. Because that is what the future holds if it is not limited now while its still early enough to put limits on online only content which is anti-consumer if you think about it. Their should always be a way to pick up a disc or order a disc direct from a developer and not be locked into some online store that can impose itself on you but most importantly impose its views on the developers and creaters at will... And THAT is why physical needs to be protected even in the future.. 🎉❤🎉
Really curious how progress works when jumping from SP to Coop and back to SP. Does hosting affect anything or not being the host? Thanks for the review. I will grab this in just over 20 hours it looks like.
i want this kind of rpg games for vr pc and consoles but with better graphics and animations i really cant play games that look outdated vr or none vr if i cant see the game world and say wow its beautiful to look at like i did with horizon 2
This game is also bitter sweet, I just can't help but thinking how much wasyed potential is here but companies refuse to invest in a big VR RPG. Occulus has a an awesome RPG, but im stuck with whatever Sony gives us
Quest owners would kill for this game, RE4 Remake, Village, GT7, etc... I know the grass is always greener and all that, but as a new Quest 3 owner let me tell you we have it really good over here.
Wow! I was cautiously optimistic about this one and so happy to find out it turned out well. Why am i getting Hexen vibes? Lol definitely getting this.
Realistic, you can't behead someone with one swing, and your weapons can get stuck in the enemies. You can behead enemies, it just takes a little. You can also use body parts as weapons.
If I were an indie developer, I would earmark 20% cost to hire a main team member who worked on classics like the original Baldur's gate or Elder Scrolls, knowing that you would end up with a an amazing game. Good games are not synonymous with new games. I don't really care about the accoutrement from the latest and greatest. I would rather play Ninja Gaiden NES than many of the games on the latest systems. Classics are classic for a reason. They are great GAMES. I was happy to hear that LT has no voice acting. Hopefully, enough people subscribe to LT for the developers to further develop this world.
3 enemy models that have different equipment/classes. Dragur Skeletons and Goblins. I believe the bosses are the same but have different sizes, animations, and attacks
Feels good to see a finished game implemented in the library properly
What a refreshing review. I really feel VR is like the old days of video gaming. Companies trying things and making games because it’s their passion, not to trick us into buying loot boxes.
I was thinking the same thing feels like PC gaming in 95 but in all the good ways
Yeah that's why I liked PSVR1. Instead of the same bland PS4 games, there was experimentation. A lot of smaller games felt like they were just starting from scratch like the PS1/N64 era beginning of 3D gaming. I love the graphics in this one. My PSVR2 headset was collecting dust since RE:4 I have not used it at all. Glad to find out about this one.

Forgetting about both Asgards Wrath games?
This is what vr releases should be like. Huge respect for the devs.
Ordered as soon as it hit the store. Like you said - gotta support these games if we want more like them!
It's like VR Christmas anytime Bryan scores a new game this high.

If you want to play this or any game sitting down. Set your floor level below your actual floor level when setting up ur play space.

How do you move in this game? Is there any negative consequences from tricking the PSvr2 like that. I would love to play this sitting down.

But i will say the combat itself feels so much smoother to me than blade and sorcery and the weapon collision feels so much more consistent. Really enjoy the game and plan to get my money's worth
The mere thought of fighting a skeleton warrior make this game interesting to me. I will have to check it out at some point.
Day one purchase!
Yet another game to add to my backlog of vr games haha
The game looks incredible and I was totally sold but not sure now. It blows my mind that there is no seated mode in a game like this. With my back pain, I can hardly play a VR game stood for more than 10 mins without having to sit down. 50 hour game playing stood up???
Excellent review. Thank you!!
Thanks again for another awesome review! I was planning to wait a little on this one, but now...I don't think I can! I have so many good PSVR2 games that I'm playing these days and I'm still a long way from completing some of them--now this! Haha, it's a great "problem" to have.
Imagine story like Rune Classic..
It would be insane game =)
I wanted to pick this up alongside Helldivers 2 but jesus how is this MORE expensive than Helldivers 2 lol
If it wasn't for my backlog and the incoming FFVII Rebirth, I'd be picking this up at launch. Alas it'll have to wait a while, even though this is exactly what I've been looking for in a vr game ☮️❤️✌️
I’ll be picking this one up because it’s the closest thing we’ll have to Skyrim from PSVR1 which was S-tier. Hopes of a PSVR2 port are out of the question. Also, co-op!
Wym? It’s on 2
@@PalmBeachGaming561nah, check again. It was only released early during PSVR1. It’s great, but very limited by the Move Controllers capabilities. Sadly, Bethesda was purchased by Microsoft before PSVR2 released and there’s no hope of a PSVR2 port.
@@Luis-rp2lm ohh sorry didn’t know you were talking about that
legendary tales and metro is good start to 2024
Sweeeetttt!! I love a good rpg dungeon crawler!! What time does c this drop today? Also, thanks for another awesome review
Oh thats why the PC version suddenly double in price over night!!
Price parity with the PSVR2 release
Indeed, coming out of Steam Early Access usually bumps up the price 5-15 dollars or so. But with Legendary Tales it was legit 2 full years of improvements that changed the game completely, not just a minor update pushing it to v1.0.
Ok, so the cons aren't that bad for me. I plan to play it solo, so the lag is not an issue. I like to manually crouch even if there is a crouch button for better immersion. Respect my character? is that by losing your save? - Might be patched.
Lol... Can't "respec"my character, meaning removing skill points and using them elsewhere :D
there is a croutch button u need to push and hold l3 on the controllerf for a little bit
Yup, thanks to complaints from people like me --- they added a crouch button! :D
Hope to hear from behemoth soon 😊
Ancient Dungeon or Legendary Tales? Me, I'm diving into both! Great review!
Two amazing games, great choice lol :D
Ancient dungeon has hardly any sword welding enemies
LoL but which one has better monsters... 😂🎉😂🎉 Rofl hehe, who cares more monters to slayyyyyyyyy!!!
I'll pick this one up, but I'd so love to get Skyrim VR or Blade and Sorcery one day.
YES A VR GAME WORTH GETTING FINALLY! I had a good feeling about this the day it was shown off on the state of play and I am glad to see I was right on the money with that feeling. It has been too long since a game like this appeared on VR and being spoiled with the likes of Asgard's Wrath on Quest 2 and Skyrim VR in original PSVR, I was dying for a new experience in high fidelity on PSVR2 as so far every game has either been lack luster reviewed, broken or just not optimized properly.
The fact this is co op only sweetens the pot for me as I have been looking for a VR game like Zenith to sink hours into with other people, this looked like the very game to do just that and I am more then happy that this is true. This is a DAY ONE BUY for me and not something I normally do as I have been let down countless times before this and hate digital distribution, opting to wait for physical versions of game before playing. As you can tell my collection of VR games is...nothing to write home about but I have had fun with more then a few of them. I am now able to trust in one title to deliver what it promises and was super excited to see this review validate my thoughts.
Excellent review as always parole crew its why I ALWAYS look forwards to your reviews and this week segements on youtube, keep at it!
In the future, could you add if the game is available physically or not at the end? Im only interested in physical games and have loved this channel for showing me games i never knew came out to add to my collection
Hey there! I've been asked this before but there are 2 problems with it. The first is that almost no PSVR2 games actually have physical releases (even COTM didn't). And the other problem is that most physical releases come way later than the digital version (from Perp Games or Limited Run) which means the review would suddenly be outdated. I wish the news was better but we're gonna see way fewer physical games this generation, especially with the Digital-only PS5 around
I hear you.. Luckly in this case the game is only 7gigs to download you can even download that on a 15 dollar a month phone plan... But i agree that gaming does need physical disc games too because some games are over 200 gigs to download and that would be absolute hell on a phone data plan. I think most VR games are pretty manageable size wise with just phone data plans, but big games are impossible which is why physical discs need to exist for that and because the actual console itself is sold in stores - so a small section of disc games should be required to be sold too right next to the console.
The fact that greedy companies try to make games digital only should be a government mandated law against that as it is anti-Consumer trade practices like Meta selling you a VR headset "in stores" but no disc games on the rack next to it forcing you into their online store ONLY. Anti consumer trade practices like this need to be limited now before its to late because "movie theatres", and "games", and most importantly "free over air TV" can all be killed by this type of monopolistic future that WILL come if it isnt limited now. BEFORE its to late. Because that is what the future holds if it is not limited now while its still early enough to put limits on online only content which is anti-consumer if you think about it. Their should always be a way to pick up a disc or order a disc direct from a developer and not be locked into some online store that can impose itself on you but most importantly impose its views on the developers and creaters at will... And THAT is why physical needs to be protected even in the future.. 🎉❤🎉
Really curious how progress works when jumping from SP to Coop and back to SP. Does hosting affect anything or not being the host? Thanks for the review. I will grab this in just over 20 hours it looks like.
One of the best VR games for me so far.
i want this kind of rpg games for vr pc and consoles
but with better graphics and animations i really cant play games that look outdated vr or none vr if i cant see the game world and say wow its beautiful to look at
like i did with horizon 2
Awesome, can’t wait to play.
Are there any trophies that require playing with others, or can the Platinum be achieved entirely alone?
This game is also bitter sweet, I just can't help but thinking how much wasyed potential is here but companies refuse to invest in a big VR RPG. Occulus has a an awesome RPG, but im stuck with whatever Sony gives us
Quest owners would kill for this game, RE4 Remake, Village, GT7, etc... I know the grass is always greener and all that, but as a new Quest 3 owner let me tell you we have it really good over here.
Sounds like a trully Darksouls in vr. Can waith to play...
Wow! I was cautiously optimistic about this one and so happy to find out it turned out well. Why am i getting Hexen vibes? Lol definitely getting this.
-Me looking at my wallet
"If he dies, he dies!"
Great stuff.... Just think about all the updates and extra dlc that will come with this 😊 it will only get better and better woop👌
That cherry blossom sword ❤
Wooh nice
So i dont really undestand ,how good are the phisics like stabbing on beheading
?
Realistic, you can't behead someone with one swing, and your weapons can get stuck in the enemies. You can behead enemies, it just takes a little. You can also use body parts as weapons.
If I were an indie developer, I would earmark 20% cost to hire a main team member who worked on classics like the original Baldur's gate or Elder Scrolls, knowing that you would end up with a an amazing game. Good games are not synonymous with new games. I don't really care about the accoutrement from the latest and greatest. I would rather play Ninja Gaiden NES than many of the games on the latest systems. Classics are classic for a reason. They are great GAMES. I was happy to hear that LT has no voice acting. Hopefully, enough people subscribe to LT for the developers to further develop this world.
Love that fact that the enemies fight back furthermore try to overwhelm u in bunches,by dying for combat n adventure,this shall suffice for now👍
How is the enemy/boss/item variety in the game? And do items have stats ? Weapons/armors etc
3 enemy models that have different equipment/classes. Dragur Skeletons and Goblins. I believe the bosses are the same but have different sizes, animations, and attacks
@@kart3288 hmm from what I hear the game us still amazing so the enemy variety can be fine :)
@@MikkiZHskDK hope you enjoy it! The weapon variety does seem to be pretty substantial
@@kart3288 is it only weapons? No armor or rings?
@@MikkiZHskDK armor but no rings. Each piece of equipment does give stat bonuses so upgrading and checking out new gear is necessary.
I love the game! It's fun, and recommended for Dark Souls fans, or any other RPG fans.👍
I think LSM should have you on again l! Seems like a lot has happened with PSVR2 since you spoke with Dustin.
way too pricey imo. would pay like $35-40USD for this but def not $55USD
