Feb. 2025

Lords Of Shadow 2, diferente do primeiro jogo, tem um tom sombrio e melancólico tendo o principal vilão da série como personagem principal. A premissa parece tentadora, mas a execução não foi das melhores. Não é grande e épico como o antecessor... tem um escopo mais reduzido e centrado em dois planos paralelos: uma cidade no mundo moderno e o castelo do Drácula. Os momentos na cidade não me agradaram muito (não combinam com o universo de Castlevania, na minha opinião). Já as missões no castelo são mais interessantes (com destaque para a sequência com os marionetes). As boas mecânicas de combate do antecessor ainda são mantidas, assim como as batalhas contra os "chefes" que são divertidas e desafiadoras (sem te fazer arrancar os cabelos). A dublagem e trilha sonora estão boas. O enredo não é nada demais, e quase redondo. Um ponto negativo é que ele encaminha o personsagem principal em determinadas linhas de pensamento, e depois as decarta no final (não ficou coerente). Tentaram enriquecê-lo com uma grande variedade de pergaminhos contendo relatos de sobreviventes do castelo do Drácula, mas a maioria tem um conteúdo longo e desinteressante (eu deixei de lê-los antes da metade da campanha). Apesar dos títulos dessa série terem o foco em combate (hack and slash), eles também trazem um pouco de plataforma, quebra-cabeças e até colossos (a lá Shadow of The Colossus). Nesse segundo título tiraram os colossos e colocaram momentos de furtividade (stealth), que apesar de fazerem sentido no começo da campanha, não fazem mais para o final (além do fato de não serem interessantes como jogos focados nesse tema). Os quebra-cabeças estão bem simplórios. Fizeram este aqui com uma proposta meia "mundo aberto" que na minha experiência não fez diferença: o jogo é bem linear e o "open world" fica mais para coletar determinados itens que não puderam ser coletados em determinado momento devido a falta de alguma habilidade (a lá "metroidvania"). Adicionaram também uma "loja de itens" no mapa, que na minha experiência, eu usei uma vez ! (ficou 95% do tempo de lado no meu tempo de campanha. Não vende nada muito significativo, e que você não consiga se esforçando minimamente). Por fim, em relação aos gráficos: tem cenários e personagens que ainda chamam a atenção, mas em geral estão um pouco datados para 2025. O DLC "Revelations" ficou legal porque usamos outro personsagem que demanda uma estratégia de combate diferente, habilidades diferentes, quebra-cabeças mais elaborados e foca exclusivamente no castelo (que é o ponto alto deste jogo). O enredo em gira em torno de uma parte não explicada da campanha, e complementa a experiência. Uma pena que é curto (em torno de 3-4 horas) É difícil recomendar Lords Of Shadow 2 se comparado ao primeiro. O fã da série deve encontrar algo aqui que o satisfaça, afinal você joga como o Drácula dessa vez. Apesar dos muitos pesares, não é um jogo de todo ruim e a campanha me segurou até o final. Completei o jogo em um sistema Linux utilizando o SteamPlay (Próton 9.0-4) sem problemas.

I've always loved Castlevania for its great storyline, awesome characters, and fun gameplay. Even though it’s an older game, the graphics still hold up and are definitely a 10/10. I wish they would either make more titles or even consider a remaster. Alucard's DLC was a lot of fun, though a bit short, but I really enjoyed the experience. The character designs are absolutely fantastic. ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

A step forward in some aspects and a step backward in others, this game is fun experimental and frustrating in equal measures . still i high recommendation especially if you've enjoyed the other games in the Lords of shadow series.

The story contained in the LoS2 is masterfullly written, much like the gampley is fitting to the game's setting and the main stroy It is a masterpiece. This part closes the Lords of Shadow saga pretty nicely. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3320048442 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3358455321
