Topic: "The Dragon Returns" - Castlevania Lords of Shadow Sequel (HERE BE SPOILER INFO)

[e105beta]

What? only in the tomb edition? no the same of the "Entry level" edition? FUCK.

They have to make it worth somebody's while.

Namely mine.

So I've been thinking of going on a completionist playthrough of Lords of Shadow to kill time until LoS2 comes out. Does anyone know the average time it would take to attain 110% (DLCs included)? I was hoping to get that finished before the sequel's release.

And yes, "Dracula's Tomb" looks woefully underwhelming.

[Ahasverus]

The game has arrived to stores. Brace yourselves.

lol ahasverus treating it like the second coming of Christ, everything will be ok dude

heres wat you do:

- stock up on 2 liter mountain dew and/or any high-sugar energy drink
- dont forget Hostess has brought back twinkies so yuo dont have to worry about losing weight
- shut your cellphone off all day saturday evening, as it'll take you all throughout the night until early sunday morning to finish
- have a clean set of underwear & socks, just in case
- keep your laptop charged and preferabbly have youtube open in you're browser, in case you get stuck at some point you can just look it up easily

It's as the saying goes: the only thing you have to fear is fear itself.

That sounds brutal.
I had intended to split up the playthrough over a few days -- there's a reason why the game's broken up into chapters. I was only looking to probe the relative difficulty of the trials.

By the way DarkPrinceAlucard, do you have a larger version of your avatar?

If you did it before and remeber Gems and Scrolls location and the best way to beat the trials i think it will be like 8 or 10 hours, but if you don`t it will be like 22 hours of game.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2: Dracula's Tomb Unboxing

for those that are too lazy to click the link lol

Woah, what a terrible collector's edition!

And... What the heck is that with the monster hands?

If you go to the portfolio pages of Merrcury's illustrations you'll find awesome pics and design. for example, this one http://javieralcalde.carbonmade.com/projects/4708022 has a new Simon one and.. Female Trevor? Perhaps trevor was supposed to be a woman? And I found one with the very first "barbarian" Gabriel design http://s.cghub.com/files/Image/028001-029000/28946/805_large.jpg. Pretty cool!

This one has lots of unseen images, Sypha Belmont! http://danieljimenez.cghub.com/images/

 No no, the barbarian desing isn't Gabriel, he is Tukaram, a playable character of "Blade the Edge of Darkness", the most stunning game of the old Enric Alvarez's studio. Oscar Araujo make the music for this game too, and the art-designers are the same too. So guys, if I were you, I would install this game right now !!

[crisis]

reminders me of [Order of Ecclesia]

[Ahasverus]

Oh ok. He looks like Gabriel
I finally found a hi-res image of those bestiary books. Yay. Zobek's drawing FTW.

from start to finish, knowing what you are doing... 36 hours max

I looked it up from the looks of it this was one of their early works with codemasters. I do not recall codemaster being a good company at all.
