Blood: Fresh Supply

I'm sure a lot of work went into this, but being unable to work with the source code really limited what Nightdive could possibly have done here. They added antialiasing and I think there was something like ambient occlusion in there too. These are 1996 graphics, peeps, and without extensively rerendering them or replacing them altogether, AA and AO aren't going to do very much for you. 4K widescreen? Umm, okay, but again these are the same 1996 graphics. Do you really want them in 4K? How bad could upsampling be? DOSBOX was perfectly capable of rendering the game without stretching it to fit widescreen monitors. p> Gameplay hasn't changed at all, but there are added sound bugs and differences in physics due to the new engine and you'll have to wait to see if they're fixed. p> A lot of the reviewers are crowing about "WASD!", "Mouselook!", apparently completely ignorant of the fact that the keys in the original ARE COMPLETELY CONFIGURABLE. WASD has ALWAYS been possible, and so has mouselook. In fact, I've been playing it that way since 2002, when I first rigged DOSBOX to run the game in XP. No third-party engine required. "Moan, whine, I don't wanna hafta change anything myself." Well I guess it's worth it to you to pay $10 to have someone do it for you? I wish I had your money. p>

Adjusting framerate literally hard freezes the game onto my screen. I can't do anything, move my mouse, bring up ctr + alt + del. Nothing. I don't know why it does this. Sometimes when I change the settings, it applies them, then I can do stuff. But suddenly, my mouse freezes, can't do anything, then suddenly my mouse does return to me 5 minutes later, but I still can't bring anything up or escape the frozen screen. Easily the worst crash I have ever experienced in a game. Felt like I installed malware into my pc. Had to hard reset my pc via holding down power button. Do not buy

6 of 5 must play. 5 of 5 great story great gameplay. 4 of 5 great story average gameplay. 3 of 5 average story average gameplay. 2 of 5 play only if it's your favorite genre. 1 of 5 play if you have nothing better to do. 0 of 5 play if you're a masochist. -1 of 5 avoid. Blood Fresh Supply score is 3 of 5.

GOG replaced the original DOSBox version of the game with this port that now costs almost twice as much. If people want to use free and open source ports that they prefer instead (which probably may be better than this) then sure, they could still use the original version that comes in this distribution, but should they really pay more for that?

Never managed to make it work. Windows 7, 64. I tried reinstalling DirectX, installing KB3080149 update pack and the pack with old DirectX files from Microsoft, reinstalling all video drivers, turning off/uninstalling anti-virus - still "d3dcompiler_47.dll" is missing error. Took me about 6 hours, sorry, I am done with it. Not refunding because I got it for dirt cheap at the current sale, but stil extremely disappointed for wasted time, efforts and hopes. Fail.
