Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Turns the Soulslike Power Fantasy on Its Head
Wuchang: Fallen Feathers flips the script by letting players feel powerful in a genre known for making them feel small, insignificant, and alone.
Soulslike games are meant to be difficult. There's no doubt about that. One could even argue that a Soulslike without challenge isn't a Soulslike at all. However, some titles in the genre have been making strides to not only be more accessible to a broader audience but also redefine what difficulty even means, how it's spread across encounters, and giving players access to the tools, skills, and build flexibility they might need to overcome those challenges. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is one of the latest to approach Soulslike difficulty in a way that most in the genre shy away from, effectively flipping its usual power fantasy on its head.
