Should you play Dark Alliance?
Positives
- Playable characters that you may love from the lore
- Co-op can be fun and game can be played as a chatroom experience
- The cinematics look good and are fun to watch
Negatives
- Game difficulty is all over the place and is extremely inconsistent
- Why are all the cinematics done in the theme of playing music?
- co-op is janky and you will often get hit without seeing it
- Solo is a boring and tedious chore
- Not enough character customization
Verdict: Play using gamepass or wait for a deep sale if playing solo. If you have a group of friends that wants to play this together it can be fun despite the co-op issues so at most buy the game and see if it's up to your standards before the return policy.
