Castlevania: Lords of Shadows 2 - [PC] (computer game)

Customer Review

As a big fan of the first part I had pre-ordered 2 Lords of Shadow, though I had sworn since The Force Unleashed 2 debacle something not to do: D
The gameplay is very similar to the first part, but you're dealing with a free walk-game world is very inviting to explore. Make Schnetzeleinlagen thanks to the battle system a lot of fun. The bombastic soundtrack is really great and contributes greatly to the comparison with the first part much darker atmosphere. The well-known voice actors do a wonderful job and provide a great setting, thank goodness exclusively in English with German subtitles.
Story-wise, the plot is not enough perhaps to connect with the first part, but moves at a similar level. Only the ending could have been a little one probably elaborate, the final fight a little disappointed and then thoroughly is still room for interpretation or DLCs. But even without the latter one comes with this game, at his expense, because if you're like me collect any upgrades and bonuses that you are absolutely busy 20-30 hours with the game, very nice!
The of the trade press as verrissenen stealth inserts I felt not as disturbing as long the majority of press, playing mechanically and logically possibly somewhat incongruous, but still bearable and sometimes exciting.
All in all, I was absolutely not disappointed. The only thing that annoyed me was the download of 2GB additional data during installation
