One is called blink, as you can line up several enemies before slashing through them all in a mighty swipe of your sword. There are four of them, and they fit in with the story as they are unlocked accordingly. Of course, every gameplay loop requires actual progression, and Ghostrunner handles this through slowly unveiling several abilities for you to use. The enemies, for the most part, feel incredibly balanced and fair, excluding one of the machine enemies that will kill you time and time again, but I won’t say any more. Get used to that? Here’s one with a shield. Get used to the single shot enemy? Here’s one with a machine gun. It’s actually quite organic, as it ramps the difficulty by just increasing the enemy variety. Regardless, the way that Ghostrunner handles its difficulty is so well done that it’s easy to find yourself a master in no time. Because of all this, it does take a while to learn. It’s a tango of sword slashes, bullet deflection, and quick movements. It’s a glorious dance of death and destruction, only possible with total mastery of the controls and timings. Now to move on to the best part of Ghostrunner- the combat.Ĭombat in Ghostrunner feels amazing. One problem the tale does have though is that while playing through the main game, the main antagonist seems to have somewhat shaky motivations for her actions, however in the DLC this problem is alleviated. I’ll admit that it is possible to ignore the story and continue slashing onward, however I’d say that it’s worth a listen just to flesh out the world, characters and enemies. Hearing the backstories of some of the characters and learning of the reason for my mission in the Tower actually motivated me to continue to master the controls and game mechanics.

I listened to the majority of the story while attempting some of the tougher parkour challenges in the game, and it actually helped me through some of the frustration.

The advantage of how the story is presented, within your head, is that it doesn’t pause the action to reel through the current events. It’s extremely well voice acted, and is actually quite enjoyable.

It provides plenty of backbone and fleshing out to the world, and is paced well enough so that, if you’re listening, you’re always waiting to hear the next segment. Now, to get the story out of the way first, Ghostrunner actually has a fairly good narrative.
