    Eternity: The Last Unicorn Review - Deserving of Extinction

    Video games have been on a bit of a Viking kick recently. God of War, The Banner Saga, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, and more have tapped into those heavy-metal album cover Nordic vibes, and why not? Who doesn't enjoy cleaving a frost giant's head in two with a battle axe? Eternity: The Last Unicorn, a new action-RPG from Brazilian developer Void Studios, is the latest game to go to the Norse mythology well.

    Actually, Eternity: The Last Unicorn has a number of influences. Yes, it does the Viking thing, but it's also inspired by PS1-era fixed-camera classics and modern hardcore action-RPGs like Dark Souls. Needless to say, the game is a bit of a mishmash, but is the combination just crazy enough to work? Is Eternity: The Last Unicorn action-RPG Valhalla or will it pillage your patience? Let's find out...

    [...]

    Eternity: The Last Unicorn is a less-than-magical mix of misplaced PS1-era nostalgia and shallow Dark Souls mimicry. Nearly everything about the game, from its fixed camera angles, to its clunky combat, to its copious backtracking is broken or irritating in some way. If challenge is all you're looking for in a game, perhaps Eternity: The Last Unicorn is for you. Everyone else will likely find it as fun as a sharpened horn to the eye.

    Pros
    • You may learn a bit about Norse myths
    • Masochists might enjoy themselves
    • Fairly lengthy quest
    Cons
    • Bland story and characters
    • Dated camera angles and visuals
    • Sluggish, shallow, broken combat
    • Tons of tedious backtracking
    • Worst crafting system ever
    • Riddled with bugs
    Score: 3.5/10
