Little ado about Blood

Civvie 11 pointed out a number of things in Fresh Supply that differed from the original, and Nightdive was quick to put out a patch that adjusted and fixed a large number of things. The game, before this patch, was perfectly playable outside of crashing when switching renderers. Had you never played Blood by any other means, it would seem totally fine to you, so in that sense the game was mostly just dandy. I avoided it initially because I didn't want my first experience with Blood to be drastically different from the original, but I bought it immediately upon seeing that it had been patched. I believe it's still not identical to the original Blood, but it's far far closer now. I bought it just to say that I'm happy that the devs were quick on the draw to address criticism and fix the issues brought to light. A handful more tweaks and I imagine anyone would be on board for this being the definitive way to play, and for that the game deserves a purchase and a lovely warm review.

A True Classic

If you're a fan of 90s FPS you should definitely pick this up. The port has been patched and is quite faithful to the DOS version. This includes all the expansions along with online multiplayer. It works great, looks great and most importantly is a quintessential 90s FPS.

Looks dated. Feels new.

Since the last update the game runs smoothly, no crash when loading or saving and the framerate is stable. Now the question is: is it still enjoyable by today standards? I played a little bit of Duke 3D and Shadow Warrior but always prefered Doom and Quake. So this is my first time blaying Blood... and I'm amazed by how good it is! Everything is great: the gory goth art feels like those 80s horror movie (Brian Yuzna, Dario Argento, Joe Dante...) it's a delight, every weapon handles differently and has a purpose but the greatest thing about Blood is the level design: tons of secrets, paths, you can jump on roofs with special boots, use the dynamite to open cracks in walls... Exploring in this game is so enjoyable and the gloomy atmosphere really adds up to the fun. So yes Blood Refresh is an excellent port of a classic to the modern era and it holds up very well. It looks dated of course but the modern controls and support of high res makes it feels like any modern FPS, just like Brutal Doom. Good work NightDive!

Easily the best Build engine game ever

There isn't much I can say that hasn't been said already. Ever since Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior received their modern versions (Megaton and Redux respectively) I've been waiting for Blood to go through the same treatment. Years passed and hope gradually disappeared, but it's finally HERE! The Fresh Blood release is as close to perfection as possible. Sure, some details are missing or different here or there, but fixed problems (mouse support), added features (proper 3D view), the ease of use (multiplayer sessions being easy to setup) are more than worth buying this iteration. Blood has aged much better than I would have expected it to. Even now, in 2019, it's as fun to run and blast through as ever. Proper port for modern systems also means improved performance, which is always a plus. I am also glad that the dev team works hard to improve the title even post-release - since the launch there have already been a few patches which fixed major problems and not even one month has passed. There is literally not one bad thing I can say about this version. If you're a Blood fan, go get it. Easy 5 stars from me.

Needs some polish, otherwise, great port

What's its got going for it: - Plays smooth under DX11, Vulkan or OpenGL but I see no difference - Most everyone knows that the MIDI music is better than the CD Music but to each their own. Turn off CD Music and the MIDI soundtracks play pretty close to what you expect form Sound Canvas VA - True to the original game. Textures look original. - If you don't already have the original BLOOD, the original DOS version using DOSBox is included as a goodie! What's not so great: - Cryptic Passage is not a separate choice from the menu. It is under user maps and you select the specific level you want to play - Second level of Cryptic Passage has texture issues. Road is some flashy moving wierdness, textures are all wrong at the theater. I personally like using NBlood with the original DOS files but you do need to know how to play MIDI music properly using external methods like VirtualMIDISynth. If you don't already have BLOOD, the original DOS version is included as a goodie! If Night Dive adds Cryptic Passage as a choice from the main menu and fixes some texture issues, I think its a great port. I had no sound issues like some have mentioned.
