Castlevania in everything but name.

I didn't really wait for this game to come out. I was afraid - Mighty No.9 left such bad taste for me that I expected this game to fail. Gladly I was wrong. When trailer with release date came out, I gave myself to the urge and preordered it. After ~5 days, 3 of which weren't longer than 3-4 hours (I mean, I worked entire week) I finished the game. Or at least finished it to 99.6%. I'm not a completionist, but at least I did all quests and did everything that mattered. So in general, how good is this game? It's pretty much excellent... As long as you don't go for that 100% completion. Thing is - that normally gameplay is smooth and nice and reminds of oldschool Castlevania games such as Symphony of the Night, Aria of Sorrow and Down of Sorrow. My biggest complaint is the quest grind. In some quests you are required to get special ingridient for crafting. That's ok. That ingridient drops only from specific monsters in specific areas. That's also OK. What is NOT ok is the drop-rate. Some items drop with the chance of 1% or even lower. This means, that when you want to get the item, you have to go to room, kill the monster, check for drop. If it's not there, go away from the room and then back. Rince. Repeat. Until you get what you want. I swear that getting that piece of Flying Beef took me almost an hour of this samey procedure! And I topped my Luck stat with best Luck raising equipment I could find. And that's only one item for crafting. There's a ton of them. AND... Well, that's almost all negativity I have against the game. There's also questionable performance - sometimes it feels that framerate of the game drops while my PC's monitor doesn't show high load on either CPU, RAM, Videocard and disk. Also, there's a small bug with enemies sometimes not dropping items properly. And, that's it. Everything else in this game is nothing short of amazing, high quality Metroidvania game. If not for grind, I'd say, it's the best game in this genre... Probably.

Incredibly addicting gameplay loop

What a game. Very addicting. A great homage to the original. Don't miss it.

Fantastic Game: Deeper Then You Think

The game is deeper than it first lets on. The crafting is one thing, the cooking another. It give you incentives to seek out all the recipes by giving you a permanent stat increase the first time you consume a food. This makes you really want to track down all the recipes and create them at least once. Some of them are some of the best healing items in the game as well. When everything was said and done, it gave massive bonuses. I think when I completed the game I had 10% increased XP as well 8 MP regenerated per second. It was nuts. There is also the fact that there are hidden abilities with a lot of the items. For example there is a grinder blade that has spinning spikes on it. You think it's just a cool looking weapon but it actually hits multiple times with every swing. There is an armor you can collect from a certain enemy which actually turns you into that enemy while you wear it, and it's based off another games character as well as an homage to that game. The shards are crazy. There are so many, almost one per enemy in the game and many are quite different form each other. You can increase the grade of these by collecting duplicates of them. The you can use ingredients found around the world (found in chests and reaped from dead enemies) that update the rank. Having a full stock of 9 increases the effect (damage, for example) while leveling the grade will do things like make more of the summons appear or increase the radius of an effect. It's quite awesome because it's levels of stuff you can do that are optionally there to experiment and play with. I have seen some coverage of people complaining about the games price, but at $40 it's an incredibly good deal in my opinion. I beat the game, with all the optional bosses and side quests with a 100% map in about 31 hours. They have committed to releasing further content for free and I can't wait to see it. And if they released a paid expansion I wouldn't hesitate to purchase it.

This game is a lot of fun!

Before getting into my experience, this is the computer I play on: Intel Core i3 8130U 2.21GHz 12GB DDR4 RAM (8+4) 1TB HDD Nvidia Geforce MX 110 Windows 10 64bits - Latest updates and drivers. I wouldn't be honest if I didn't come into Bloodstained without a sense of how it played and how it felt. Aside from the trailers and the involvement of legends like Igarashi and Yamane, a quick look at this game tells you that you're getting into a Metroidvania instantly. The game doesn't waste time and puts you right in the shoes of Miriam, as a protagonist, Miriam stays in the line between having her own personality and being a silent protagonist that serves as a way for the players to project themselves into the game, she has just enough personality and charisma to offer an interesting protagonist. The gameplay is, however, the strongest part of the game, at first, you might get a bit thrown off since it's a 3D game that you play in 2D unlike previous games like Symphony of the Night and Aria/Dawn of Sorrow that only used 3D on backgrounds, the gameplay itself is not compromised though, providing a responsive and properly paced action and platforming. The level design is also great, it doesn't stray from the metroidvania formula too much, but there are some segments that are not common in these kinds of game, the game is challenging with the enemy placement and their abilities, but not unreasonable or unfair. Music, sound design and voiceovers are great all around, specially the music, seriously, look up Voyage of Despair, enough said. I hope this is enough to get you started, this is a proper metroidvania, very fun and full of content, the following are a list of other aspects: -Minor hicups happened on my system, but the overall experience was locked 60fps at 720p max settings. -The game includes other modes, such as more playable characters, boss rush, randomizer, etc -Mod support -Works great with a dualshock 4 with DS4Windows

SOTN's daughter

Spiritual-linked to Symphony of the Night, this is one of the best "new" metroidvania games (you know, after the end of the Castlevania franchise). Very nice gameplay, music and graphics, thanks to the talent of the makers (noticing the most Igarashi and Yamane)
