Tears of Metal
Best for roguelite fans who want flashy Musou-style action and lots of build variety.
Where creators disagree
I Dream of Indie Games praises the combat, but
Worth A Buy says it feels spammy.
Reviews
The creator spends the whole video evaluating Tears of Metal as a polished and tremendously fun early access roguelite, praising its Musou-style combat, addictive build variety, strong presentation, and surprising level of completeness. They do note several drawbacks, including slow weapon unlocks, overlong bosses, weak co-op balance, repetitive locations, and the lack of a save-and-quit feature, but the overall verdict is strongly positive and explicitly recommends playing it now.

The creator spends most of the video describing and playing Tears of Metal while giving clear personal impressions of its combat, progression, difficulty, and controls. He repeatedly calls it really good fun and says many viewers will love it, though he criticizes the keybinds, somewhat spammy combat, stingy money, and even the title.

The video is a hands-on first look where he spends nearly the whole time playing Tears of Metal and reacting to its combat, progression, and difficulty. He repeatedly compares it to Dynasty Warriors, says it plays quite well, calls several mechanics cool or strong, but also says parts feel boring early on and that he needs more time before a full judgment.
