Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night

Maybe the game gets better somehow, but I really can't see how. The goofy fanservice character moves so slowly that the controls become poorly responsive, the hit detection is terrible all around, you take full damage every second your character is in range of an enemy's hit box, there is no dodge/dash (except for an awkward, slow hop backwards--only backwards), the dialog is atrocious (but not bad enough to become funny--just bad), the story is dull, there's a remarkable lack of customization?? (the weapons/armor system is overdone and yet somehow seems superfluous and I'm not sure if stats or leveling actually matter or do anything worthwhile?), and the gameplay is tedious and grindy. I suppose to the game's credit, the designers telegraphed that the plot/characters were terrible and gameplay was supposed to be tedious and grindy from the opening and it's my fault for not believing them, but I thought the game might improve once I started getting some of the skills. tl;dr: if you play the intro and aren't madly in love with the slow clunky gameplay and godawful everything else, drop this awful game rather than trying to push through. It doesn't get better.

2 призыва свинолёта из 10. Если серьёзно, из плюсов - приятная графика и музыкальное сопровождение Из минусов - отвратительная боёвка - хитбоксы кривые, вместо доджа есть непонятно зачем высранный отскок, который не имеет фреймов неуязвимости, мобы просто прут на тебя и даммажат моделькой, иногда высирая рандомные удары. Управление очень кривое, я специально купил боксовский геймпад для этой игры, думал, вдруг дело в этом, но на нём ещё хуже, на стике передвигаться невозможно, потянешь его на 1 градус вниз от горизонтали - и твой перс уже садится. Не знаю, наверное, для фанатов серии сойдёт, но если вы просто любитель метроидваний и ищете что-то новое - не стоит сюда лезть. Ещё и за такой ценник

Лучшая на данный момент метроидвания. Геймплей насыщенный и вариативный: огромное количество оружия, заклинаний и способностей, что позволяет собирать самые разные билды, подстраивая стиль игры под себя. Ждал, пока появится смерть и заберёт мои пожитки, а потом вспомнил, что героиня ни разу не Алукард и это вообще не "Симфония ночи"...

脑瘫玩意强制关联epic还不能取消,拒绝就无限载入中。我在steam登你妈的epic,设计尸每次进入对象的时候都要打电话向对象前任报备，对象前任不同意就进不去干看着。

That game meant so much to me, it was the game my friend recommended before he died (Thanks Luan, you'll be missed forever). In the beggining I was not very happy playing, but it passed in the first 1 or 2 hours. I loved every details and adventure. Perfect main character, closed history (including DLCs), OSTs and, of course, the memories that brings Castlevania series back in mind. Buy at full price or at promos!

died? back to save point, you can only save at specific locations, unclear traps and one hit kill things, and gameplay feels sluggish, doesnt come close to SOTN

我不明白，为什么要用epic覆盖自己的优先级，为什么，尼玛脑残吗，我用了这么久steam的存放，非得读取epic存档半天，为什么啊，我steam登录为甚什么，tell me baby why，我现在每次登录都要看epic脸色，但我当年买你就是为了支持你全价买的，没有epci，tell me baby why again， get epic off my sight

不推荐游玩，除了情怀没一点优点，垃圾画质糟糕手感，关卡设计和敌人设计也不行，操作手感一坨

Muted the voices within 20 minutes. Uninstalled just after hitting the 1 hour mark. What a complete waste. Everything about Bloodstained can be boiled down to the word "clunkiness." The movement, the combat, the inventory management, the fact that when you die you lose ALL the progress you made after your last save. I don't mind having to run back through the same boring ass maps after I died. I DO mind having to rediscover the same boring maps to fight the same boring enemies to pick up the same useless items. I got this as a gift from a friend and now I'm sending them back the money they spent on it because I'm so embarrassed that this was ever on my wishlist. I would have refunded it at the 30 minute mark if I could.

i like this game a lot. scratches that very specific metroidVania itch. similar enough to games like Simon's Quest, Symphony of the Night, and Dawn of Sorrow PC sounds like a get engine revving up when i play it. changing setting helped. just got to reload the game after. first time i didn't do that and it immediately crashed
