646f9e108c Dracula awakens after decades of slumber to find that Satan's return is imminent. He reluctantly teams up with his old enemy Zobek to stop the apocalypse from happening.
The game starts with a Prologue of the Castle Siege. Taking place after the Mirrors of Fate, Dracula's castle is being attacked by the Brotherhood of Light. After destroying their Mechanical Titan, and most of the soldiers along with it, he faces off with the Golden Palladin,then his estranged vampiric son, the vampire knight Alucard. In modern times, Zobek finds Dracula, who is in a weakened state. He offers to rid his old friend of his immortality, at the price of his help. Zobek fears that Satan's return is imminent, and needs Dracula's strength.
Well this was something I had been meaning to do ever since I picked up a controller. PlayingDracula has been a dream of mine forever. Controlling him, you traverse the large Gothic city built upon your old castle's ruins and ally yourself with an old enemy to stop an even greater foe's imminent return. Systematically, you hunt down those responsible for bringing him back and kill them, all the while being plagued by visions of your long lost son who takes you back in time to your castle in hopes of regaining your latent powers and your lost memories. This all sounds great on paper, doesn't it. Well it's great in practicewell, except for one thing… the game feels and looks like Guillermo del Toro directed it. I know most of you will be pleased to hear this… But to me, the creature designs were just fine before they became all… Outlandishly weird, with the exception of Raisa Volkova's final form. Besides that, the scenery is quite the sight to behold, the "memories" of the castle especially. I often found myself standing completely immobile for minutes at a time marveling at the sights around me, and that is truly an accomplishment. The combat is mostly similar to the previous LoS installment, with the exception of the Void sword and the Chaos Claws that replace your blue and red whip while maintaining each color's magical properties. As Dracula, you progressively gain abilities like turning into mist to move past metal bars and become temporarily invulnerable to damage, swarm of bats to distract your enemies and possess them, the ability to morph into a pack of rats to climb through ducts and get past enemies and of course your blood daggers and relics. The puzzles are back, and there are one or two particular ones that might send you up the wallit did me. The semi-open world draws a lot from Dark Souls in the way that most areas are interconnected and lead you back to the starting point. Fast travel is available though, if you can find the nearest map room. The trials are done away with and are replaced by arena challenges, unlocked by collecting specific artifacts. So to summarize… LoS2 is a great, gorgeous game with perhaps the most detailed and beautiful environments I have seen in a long time. I just wish they hadn't gone so over the top with the creature designs and had more powers for Dracula, I mean, c'mon he's Dracula? Worth at least a try though, even if it's just for the endless eye candy all around you.
Game had every chance to be amazing. It had every chance to learn from LOS 1, embrace what works, continue what was amazing and not stray too far from its original premise. <br/><br/>Instead…we got… LOS 2. Dracula in a big city, lifeless, in ruins, linear, uninteresting, total lack of interesting narration, total lack of creative boss fights outside of the opening one. <br/><br/>Devoid of immersion outside of Castle Dracula.<br/><br/>Way too obsessed with opening doors, getting elevators to work, flowing through ventilation shafts, avoiding lasers and INSTA FAIL guards that make Dracula feel like a big wimp. <br/><br/>The game is punishingly stupid at times and puzzles are incredibly simply yet not remotely obvious. Its tedious. Its boring. And its SO ANNOYING because you wanna love this game. I want to love Dracula. I want to enjoy playingthis badass vampire. I want to continue doing all I did from the 1st game, I wanna fly around like in the trailer, I wanna transform into the bird, I wanna transform into a huge vampire. <br/><br/>But instead of doing anything cool and creative like that. We're just doing door unlocking, power diverting puzzles, doing a truckload of backtracking, constantly being introduced to the same areas we've seem before in this lifeless, boring ruined city thats devoid of ANYTHING but demon life. <br/><br/>Its so tedious. And it just doesn't change. WhereLOS 1 would offer you very different areas. Villages, swamps, castles, demonic underworlds, dark forests, beautiful lush forests, snowy locations, and undead, abandoned towns… LOS 2 offers you the same god damn ruined New York streets filled with generic demons and….thats it.<br/><br/>With your occasional trip to Castle Dracula thats not even that interesting either. Especially since its mostly optional. <br/><br/>every mission you complete isn't boiling down to anything grand. Resulting in any big narration or sense of completionist music theme that makes you feel like you did in the 1st game. <br/><br/>It just feels like you now trigger the next cutscene back at Zobeks house where he tells you: Hurry up and complete the next stuff so I can kill you and we can be done. <br/><br/>ITS Unfathomably UNINTERESTING AND ANTI CLIMACTIC.<br/><br/>Marie barely shows up. Alucard's role makes for a cool plot point later but overall remains of minimal interest. The grand finale versus Satan is INSULTINGLY bad. <br/><br/>Its over so fast, you do more climbing than fighting and by the end you don't even do anything to make you feel like you're defeating Satan like in the 1st game. <br/><br/>"sigh" I know a lotta people love the idea of this. Rate it 10 and 9 and more. because its Dracula. Its vampires. We all love it.<br/><br/>but if you really love this concept you should want a proper execution of this premisewell. And Mercurysteam could've done FAR better.<br/><br/>This smells like a rushed product, sabotaged by Konami, it has lacking creativity, lacking level design, underwhelming boss fights and a really lackluster ending that doesn't remotely culminate in anything. LET ALONE… how it basically makes your ENTIRE INCENTIVE SINCE THE START OF THE GAME feel pointless because not only do you realize you can live on with your son but " spoiler alert… " it was the idea all along…. you just forgot after Alucard stabbed you with his sword. <br/><br/>Honestly. Its anti-climactic. I can respect the premise. The idea of the city, demons and all that. But this execution is dreadfully awful and BLEAKF#ck. <br/><br/>LOS did everything better. LOS 2 deserves to be called out for its lackings. Not solely praised for having a badass Dracula concept and trailer. 10 out of 10 for its opening sequence fighting knights. 6 out of 10 for the rest of the game. <br/><br/>Its a mediocre game. Wasted opportunity. Wanna buy this game? Play it for its opening mission ONLY. The rest can be skipped. You wont miss anything.
