A true love, hate game.
Easily the best build engine game out there. Oozes atmosphere and Caleb is still the best protagonist among the build engine games. But the hit scanners are just too much. Didn't notice any differences between this and the OG version except the mouse look is nice and smooth.

Not as good as the original
You cannot adjust the video it looks pixelated even at the highest rate. And the controls are not adjustable as the original

Brains! More brains!
Blood is a classic and the release of this updated version was possibly the best videogame-related news I had recently. Fresh Blood brings back (a really close version of) the original Blood's gameplay, updated with some nifty features (e.g. support for hi-res 1920x1080 resolution) that make it much easier to enjoy the game on modern computers. Running the game on Win10 here and so far I did not run into any nasty bug, just a random crash that occurred during setup of the controls. Other than that, I noticed an issue if playing with CD music (actually a .ogg version of the original CD audio tracks), since the music does not seem to loop when playing and it will not restart if restarting a level (e.g. upon dying). I seem to remember the original Blood had a similar issue, but I could be wrong. In any event, I always preferred the game's MIDI music, so this is a non issue to me. BTW, for MIDI playback Fresh Blood relies on the Fluidsynth synthesizer and comes equipped with a standard 6 Mb soundfont (.sf2). It is actually possible to use a different (higher quality) soundfont .sf2 file, just drop the new .sf2 file in the game directory, then navigate to your "\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Nightdive Studios\Blood EX" folder, open the kexengine.cfg file in Notepad or similar, look for the line "seta snd_soundfontfile" and replace the name of the sounfont file with that of your new soundfont. All in all, I'd recommend this version of Blood to old fans of the game and newcomers who wish to give this classic a try.

Remember your secondary weapon modes. This game can be tough and you're gonna need them!

king of the hill
i've got to say...story, soundtrack, gameplay controls, variety...this one is still the best of the holy trinity from the build engine. refine to modern systems so youger players can taste what is the real good stuff. It's very dark, very gory, very humorous,and pop culture refereced. a masterpiece from a time where games were simpler but much much better.
