Pros
Pro Good variety to the gameplay
Each situation that the player takes part in is varied in looks and tasks, ranging from making coffee to mowing the lawn, the gameplay stays fresh throughout the whole game thanks to the differences found in each section.
Pro Humorous story
The premise of the game allows for many humorous situations in where an octopus is trying to hide in a human world. An outlandish story that sees the main character get into many different every day situations that would normally be mundane made pretty hilarious due to the situation at hand, hide in plain site.
Pro Easier than the Souls series
Lords of the Fallen has been pretty much modeled after the Dark Souls series with gameplay that is very similar. Though with LotF, the gameplay is a bit easier, with enemies not being as excruciatingly as tough.
While the easier gameplay does make Lords of the Fallen more accessible, it is still a difficult game in it's own right.
Pro Highly detailed graphics
Lords Of The Fallen features some very gorgeous graphics, something that really sets it apart from the game it takes its inspiration from.
Pro Arcade like combat
The combat in Lords of the Fallen is a bit arcade like in that it plays like a hack and slash more so than a tense combat parrying game. This makes for an easier to get into game.
Pro Risk/reward loot system
There is a risk reward loot system within Lords of the Fallen in where the player, the further they progress without saving, the better loot they will receive as drops. So depending on when the player wants to save can create a very tense situation when having not saved in over an hour and running low on health. It runs the risk of losing all of the players progress since last saved all for the hope of better items.
Cons
Con Gameplay can be easy
While the outlandish story that surrounds the game is great too often the gameplay itself is on the easier side. So for those that are looking for a challenge may not find it in this game.
Con Frame rate issues and crashing
Lords of the Fallen has suffered from frame rate issues and crashing since it's release. Various patches have been released to address these issues but they still remain to be an issue.
Con Last half of the game can be too easy
In the second half of Lords of the Fallen the player is able to accrue runes that allow for stat boosts, making the game arguably a lot easier that the first half.
Con Flat story
The story in Lords Of The Fallen never really explains much to the player, leaving the player feeling a bit disconnected from the game, not really caring about the characters or their outcome.
