Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is the fresh release from A44 Games, marking their next try at a Soulslike genre, following their Ashen game from 2018. The world of Kian is overrun by undead and players assume the role of Nor Vanek, a warrior skilled in melee and range combat.
The game stormed onto Xbox Game Pass on day one, and many are jumping into the beautifully crafted world, but some have found a few issues with the game. Not everything is smooth in Kian, and players desire this unwanted feature to be eliminated.
Flintlock: Siege of Dawn Players Despise Camera Wobble and Want it Out
Since Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is played from a third-person perspective, the camera angle plays a vital role in both combat and exploration. Nor Vanek is easily controllable and used in the best ways when players have a steady camera for precise aim and a clear view of the area.
However, some players are experiencing a camera wobble in their world-saving adventure in Kian. The camera wobble happens when players move the camera up and down or zoom in and out. It is a shaky, swaying effect that is felt after releasing the control stick and the camera just moves on its own.
This effect can hinder the overall experience a great deal, as aiming precision becomes a thing of the past when this happens. It has led to players’ dissatisfaction, and one Reddit user has addressed his concerns, wondering why is camera wobble still a thing.
Why is the wobble in camera movements still a thing?

The user continued to say that he would likely wait for the patch to come out and eliminate the problem since it is hard to get used to it.
Flintlock: Siege of Dawn is Still a Good Game
The camera wobble might be a thorn in the side for some, but Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is still a great Soulslike experience in its own right. A44 Games has departed from the minimalist design seen in their debut title, Ashen, mimicking Bloodborne, but with a dash of innovation.
With the game available on Xbox Game Pass on day one, makes it a highly desirable new release. For those without a subscription or on PS5, will have to churn out $39,99 for the new Soulslike.
Players will find combat most enjoyable as it is faster than other Souslike and Soulsborne titles as players will dodge more than block, and parrying can be done with both weapons Nor uses.
Unlike in other Soulslike games, there are no shortcuts as Flintlock uses portals that Nor can manipulate to travel across the game’s open zones. While the game itself isn’t groundbreaking in the genre, it is still a good game that deserves the attention of every Soulsborne fan who craves a similar experience but instead of a dark and grim world, will get a burst of colors at times.
