Godbeast Mk.II

This game is a difficult to recommend because its nearly good. And only one thing is stopping me from fully enjoying this game. Its the Camera, the camera is fixed perspective and a lot of the time the camera angles are not good and I end up being lost behind an enemy and cant see attacks. Its a hack and slash where you jump over and dodge attacks and when you time them right you are powered up. The artstyle is great, the sound design is serviceable and so is the gameplay. I will comment more on the story once I have finished. But if you love Suda51 or really weird aesthetic indie games that have a bunch of potential and want to support one, this is it. I fully love what they're doing I just hope that in future they will consider the Camera a bit more.

I do miss driving around the city like in the original Godbeast but also appreciate the more focused direction the game has now. Looks and plays great on the Steam Deck too!

A fun, short beat em up style game that has an unfortunate fixed camera problem, but also improves on their previous games. During some fights enemies can get lost behind other enemies and sometimes the camera seems to fight you so you can not see what's going on. I've not played the previous game so I can't comment on that game, but this devs first game Malebolgia was also great, but had one big problem: It was so easy to get lost, environments were very samey and it was incredibly dark. Thankfully the dev opted to go for a linear approach with this game. Instead of being one big open world everything is divided into stages and it's made the game very enjoyable. I'll take a kinda bad camera over getting lost every few minutes. Also, I'm unsure if it was a big bug or intended, but the stages don't always seem to present themselves in order. I went from 1-2 to 1-4. 1-3 to 3-4 and so on. Not really a huge issue and didn't seem to get in the way of understanding the story but I found it a little odd.

[h1]«Godbeast Mk.II»[/h1] [b][i]Мрачное, атмосферное экшен-слэшер-приключение. Вооружившись зачарованным копьем и взяв с собой ручного волка принцесса отправляется в город «Неспящих», чтобы завоевать трон.[/i][/b] Геймплей: https://youtu.be/MBb1XyG_l_M Правят городом лорды «Совета Охоты». Они погрузили город в бесконечную ночь, заключив договор с Зверобогами ради бессмертия. Теперь Зверобоги спокойно разгуливают по улицам города, а таинственный лунный свет сводит с ума местных жителей, вызывая агрессию и жажду крови. В этой схватке за власть принцесса не пощадит никого. Она готова воевать даже с бывшими друзьями и со своей семьей… По геймплею это типичный Hack and slash. Зачищаем от врагов и боссов небольшие уровни-локаций. В игре интересный сюжет и кат-сцены, стильная графика и мистическая атмосфера, отличная музыка и звуки, но неудобная камера. Она автоматически поворачивается и часто принимает неудачный ракурс (перекрывает обзор, усложняя бои). [u] Вы можете почитать другие отзывы и подписаться на наших кураторов. Добро пожаловать!

Well, this game was an experience. The Good: - Interesting story and characters - Atmosphere and art are great - The concept is not bad The Bad: - The camera angles Ex. There's a specific boss in the game that you are essentially fighting the camera more than the boss and it is absolutely aggravating. - Some of the boss fights are lackluster and mechanically could use work Overall: This isn't a bad game at all for what it is. It doesn't sell itself as anything fancy and is very much a homage to Suda51 games. The biggest obstacle is how often the camera, in certain areas will get you killed, I hope they eventually patch a few things so that it flows more fluidly. As an independent indie title, I don't have any massive complaints.

I do feel that the charm of the first game is lost with the removal of the open world. As it stands, I thought the game was... [i]all right.[/i] Stylish, but clearly janky, and not terribly interesting in any regard. Still, I'd recommend giving it a shot if it looks neat :)

If games were deemed good or bad simply based on if its literally the coolest ♥♥♥♥ ever, then Godbeast Mk. II : Howl in the Moonlight is one of the greats. Unfortunately there's more to a game than aurafarming, and The Godbeast 2 is not one of the greats. I'd still recommend it to anyone since it's cheap and there's decent playtime to get out of it, but there is quite a bit of jank and the opening levels are pretty dry, just punch the guys until they die for a good couple hours. It only really starts to catch the player after you beat the first area and the story begins to unfold. The game keeps a 360/ps3 era hack n slash formula throughout, but has some fun little abilities and mechanics to discover. Some of the bosses have fun attack patterns, and the game is in that goldilocks zone of just punishing enough where it can really throw some curveballs at you to keep you on your toes in a fight without boiling down to being unscripted QTE's. The art direction of the game is the star of course, every battle is framed from dramatic angles and the game leans into a fixed camera perspective, yet never commits to a degree where angles would interrupt the flow of movement. There's a lot of weird decisions the game makes, there's an optional boss that boosts your health, and I don't know if its intentional but you can just keep fighting him until your health bar runs past the edge of the screen and presumably continues to grow. The level's are unlocked in a non-linear fashion, yet aren't anachronous to the point where you could say the game is straight point A to point B and I'd believe you. The little secret goon you can find in every non-boss level most the time has nothing of value to say, most the secret messages are very methodically explaining mechanics that you learn in the beginning of the game when its explaining the controls to you. But the game looks REALly cool.
