As far as action slash-em-up's go, this one's pretty neat. Exposition and storytelling isn't the best (drawn out dialogue, non-clarity), but other aspects including gameplay, music, and visuals are A-OK.

Fundamentally simple and not a very long game story-wise, but genuinely charming. I had a fun time swinging.

It's "alright", if one could adjust their expectations to more "big map action game" rather than "open world survival sim" - with a little lower budget than the big-hits one might be used to (Fallout, Far Cry, STALKER). Engaging enough and hadn't encountered much technical issues beyond some 'AA' jank here and there, but the bit that annoyed me the most while playing was the extremely limited inventory and dependence on trekking back and forth for ages.

Enemy AI is also a bit too rudimentary and incapable for combat to remain engaging for too long - by late-game I've had an over abundance of supplies and little challenge taking down enemies that didn't pose much threat anymore.

However, overall I still feel it's reasonable for the asking price (great regional pricing too, kudos) and I liked it enough to drop this Thumbs Up.

As a newcomer to the series and no prior experience with this original game, this was an entertaining experience. Tense horror without relying atmosphere rather than shock and jumpscares. Somewhat little variety in combat or enemies.

Mixed feelings about this one. It's "OK" given the budget/scope of the game, but there were several instances and design choices throughout the game that I found quite peculiar or annoying.

Cool game. This is my first entry to the series and I find it reasonably entertaining and engaging, albeit somewhat repetitive in its gameplay loop. It's a little "easier" difficulty-wise than I'd expected (perhaps I'm simply used to many games trying to be Souls-difficult), but I find it's completely fair through the story's duration -- just that it hits a ceiling in terms of challenge at some point.

Performance wise: The visuals don't quite match up to the performance demand, and I'm simply lucky to be able to force through with ample hardware.

Story pacing is slightly slow with little agency so far in Act 1 and 2, but the game is overall rather pleasant. The animated character model (I assume Live2D) is quite novel and pleasant to behold, extending to rather impressive levels during the scenes - and I'd say is what I like most in this game. I also enjoy the full character voice acting, as subjective as it may in such games.

"Yet another Survivor game", but it certainly feels chunky and satisfying, with reasonably pleasing visuals. Looking forward to the full game.

Very much more of the same from the excellently-enjoyable first game. A little less novelty this time around and I do prefer the level and boss design from the predecessor, but B2 was still overall an enjoyable and not-too-difficult Metroidvania for me.

Starts off feeling a little generic/regular but picks up quick in terms of story and production quality. Happy to be able to support this project.
