Default Re: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow thread

So, this game is great. One of the most amazing looking games I have ever played, and the combat is great once you get used to noticing enemy attacks and dodging them - makes things very fluid.

My only complaint so far is that this game does one thing that some games do that really annoys me: too many paths to take. If I'm exploring a dungeon or area and I come across two paths, I like for one to be relatively short and lead to a dead end with an item or something.

In this game that's not the case, there are a lot of branching paths which are long and intricate, and makes it easy to miss stuff. Fortunately the game lets you replay any level any time you want, so it's easy to go back and run through the level again and choose different paths.

Also, having Patrick Stewart read to you during loading screens is awesome. Every game should do this.
