After Onimusha's focused swordplay, Phantom Blade Zero delivers a sprawling, maximalist action epic
At just about 15 hours into Phantom Blade Zero, I've changed out my primary weapons more times than I do in an entire Souls campaign.
AI Summary
At about 15 hours into Phantom Blade Zero, the player has swapped primary weapons more often than in a typical Souls game. The starter sword was replaced by dual blades and a jagged weapon that deals high damage in blood showers, but neither stayed long. A two‑handed blade taller than the protagonist Soul appears, emitting energy‑sapping flowers with each swing, and a similar giant weapon absorbs life on hit. The player prefers twin blades that can spin around them like a protective Beyblade, while a weapon taken from a crazed monk remains unused. The game is still less than a third complete, yet it is far larger than expected.
