Sigh...

Bought...

u wont regret it dude. cuz at the end of the day, despite the controversial plot & music we debate about over n over, its still gonna be a good video game and its job is to entertain us, bring temporary happiness to our lives in this fucked up world we live in

too often we forget how lucky we all are to even type on laptops, own big screen TVs, have money to buy the stuff we want. all luxuries that are denied to millions

There are walkthroughs on Youtube already as well as on Twitch.

Fun fact: Turns out you can sprint in this game like you could with the cyclone boots from LOS1, which is brand new to me.

makes sense, I mean, he kept the relics I presume.

I dont remember, can he double jump? he might have ditched the Seraph Shoulders. Carmilla fucked them up already through "misuse", making them unable to sustain full flight anymore, so i suppose the same would go for him.
Laura and Gabriel arrive in the deepest cave of the castle and... they find IGA.

So guys I've heard something from a very close source.


Agreus. It's bullshit. Like real bullshit. It seems that you are put not in a maze but in a corridor with square things surroinded by leaves, there are two bells to attract his Attention, but both are unuseful after the third box. The thing is that Agreus can "smell you" and he stays around the box you are giving you very little time to run, and the miraclous mist mode? It lasts 5 seconds and in this part pf the game you can only for some reason use it when fully charged. Yeah, it's bullshit.
My source says that the game is miles better than 1... Until that part.
Now I'm kinda happy and sad.

Everything comes full circle

Enric, pal, I know you're here. Patch Agreus, I BEG you, everyone, every single person has called bullshit on it, it's not about using the brain, it's about his ai patterns and level design which leads more to failure. Please Enric. It seems to be the only glaring abyss on a well constructed piece of art.

That's disappointing to hear, and I highly doubt it's going to get patched. Who knows, though.

Guess it'll be "that one part".

That's sad.
I just hope people who play the game won't be deterred by that one part.
Although I'm sure some would ditch the game at that point.

If people are stupid enough to buy a game and stop playing it because a part is hard or bad designed, it's really sad for them... Can't wait to see what those people would do with real life.  :rollseyes:

That sounds.....fantastic

Let me get this straight, your comparing someone quiting a fictional videogame because it is to hard to someone quiting something in real life because it is to hard? :-\

obviously that will have patches, like all games of the last years. It will correct some things (Agreus has a trick) and new content will be added.

Someone was remembered as Gran Tourismo 5 to start and end? as Skyrim was the beginning and the end?. Many patches passed.

Judge all games or just not to judge anyone.

Hey guys: Does anyone have any Infos on that second acolyte Boss? The dude with the lightning and the bold head. Do you fight him in a normal human form or does he transform or even control a giant mech?

Does anyone know if there are other Titan bosses?

And also does Dracula's doppelganger transform into a Dragon that you Need to fight? Could someone ask These questions to a source that has knowledge of These things or maybe know it themselves already?

I found a way to extract the music from the demo's archive but not to re-import it inside the archive. By changing the music files, it'd be possible to mod the music, and add classic tunes. If someone finds a way to reimport the music inside the Music.packed file, I'll make a custom CV music mod for LoS2.

Man I turned of that one stream now during the Carmilla fight. Didn't want all of it spoiled to me. What I saw looked pretty good though. :)

Just because people hate bullshit in their game that would be otherwise decent without it doesn't mean they're suicidal losers. What the hell, Chern?

It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.
