Although I can oversee the fact that enemies can damage you through thick walls when you're in OBVIOUS cover, even PRONING.
The blatant cheap shoots, especially when you spawn at the start a check point and loose more than half of your health before you have time to blink.
The fact that allies keep running in front of your aim and pushing you out of cover.
The unbalanced difficulty where some missions put you in turrets where you can't avoid taking damage, to having a bazooka standing next to an infinite ammo box.
It's Veteran, it's supposed to be hard and that's how I like it.
I mean you can always reload the checkpoint.
HOWEVER!
The fact that your option to lowering the difficulty is RIGHT NEXT TO LOAD LAST CHECKPOINT!?
And you CAN'T RAISE the difficulty again if you MISS CLICK and have to START OVER FROM THE BEGINNING.
Who designed that and thought that was a good idea!?
I was far into the game when this happened to me.
The graphics are amazing, the animation rig is mediocre, the story is engaging as always and I love that they removed auto recovery and took back the old medkit system from the early games.
But this, this made me drop the game completely.
&¤%/ that.

Uff... So guuud!
And we will never see the next season.
I'm laughing, but actually crying inside

As soon as I heard Koji Igarashi was going to make bloodstained after leaving Konami, I instantly backed it.
To my suprise they announced this game as a "bonus" and it was released not even a year after.
I thought it was really nice of them but didn't have much expectations due to it's short development time.
But boooooy was I wrong....
This game is a true tribute to the old classics castlevania 1-3, but with the refined controllers.
A full length game with nifty new mechanics.
A MUST for for people looking for that 80's-90's nostalgic experience where games were based on skills and not luck or auto aim.

It's really hard for me to give the game this critique.
I LOVED the first game and all it's in-depth class building and grinding.
I even own all the anime series and books.
But this game has lost all it's charm.
Instead of having what originally made Ragnarök unique, they now copy too much of other korean MMORPG.
They even scrapped the merchant and novice classes which i though was one of the greatest things the first game
had that made it unique.
I accept change in many aspects like how the play style in the witcher changed between the first and the second game.
In many cases i like change and how developers challange themselves in order to grow.
But this just feels like the team didn't have a vision of what they wanted and forgot what made the first game as great as it was.
They just wanted to follow the main stream like dead fishes instead of realising the greatness in their own brand.
3/10

He-he-he-he-hey, now you speakin my language here.
YEAH! TONIGHT!

Really addictive game if your in too balanced grinding games.
Probably the best free to play game out on the market, with no doubt!
