Lords of Shadow 2 is a massive improvement over the first game in almost every regard. The combat feels better, the environments are more interesting, and the game generally does a much better job of keeping things varied. I also really appreciate how completely insane the story and set pieces can get. It constantly throws increasingly ridiculous situations at you, and while it can be a bit much, I found that side of the game genuinely entertaining. There are still plenty of flaws, though. The gameplay can become repetitive, some sections are much weaker than others, and the stealth segments in particular feel like a chore. Even with all the improvements, the core gameplay is still just decent hack and slash combat. Overall, I enjoyed it considerably more than the first game and I appreciate how much more ambitious and ridiculous it is. Unfortunately, underneath all the crazy moments, it's still only a decent hack and slash at best. 6/10 (Decent)

This is a Flawed Masterpiece of the Action genre The game improves in many aspects from its predecessor while other mechanics seem to have been abbandoned or downgraded, I personally love the direction of the light/Dark magic system evolving into the magic Sword and gountlets and much more importantly they fixed the camera. The game now is much more fast paced because they removed most of the puzzles and travessing terrain is much faster and although the game still has great graphics and art direction, unfortunaly isn't up to par with the first one, there is not enough visual variety as you only cross from back alley of the city to the castle and thats it. I have a big problem with the addition of a stealth system, even more so because it is a bad one, Dracula shouldnt be the guy hiding from his enemies. I specially hated the part where you hide from the Goat boss, which was annoying and frustrating, the mechanics of the hide and seek were interesting, but the AI seemed to know where you were most of the time, it felt as if you couldn't outsmart it even if you tried your hardest. This is a clear problem of bloated game mechanics, if you're gonna add something to a game make sure it doesnt detract from the main experience and this is a clear case where this happened, I hated the fact that I finished the game demolished all bosses and still they din't gave me the opportunity to fight and take revenge on those stupid guards. Most of the time game is railroaded but in some parts the game just leave you to figure out what to do and where to go without a clear direction just one objective in the map and you get lost just because you didnt notice a specific barely lit spot where you can climb and reach for the objective. Lighting should be a way to guide the player, but in this game some spots are just too dark and gloomy because of the atmosphere they were going for, which was not bad, but this is not a horror game the lighting should improve the experience, not hinder it. The game has a map, but it is structured in a way which makes the map useless, because the pathing throughout the game is so straight foward there was no stance where I needed and barely used it or just to check where I was. Another bad thing for me was the jumping puzzles and plataforming which are quite basic in this game, the jumping puzzles here you just have to figure out which way to go in other words you just follow a trail laid off by the level designer, with no signficant mechanic attached to it, sometimes maybe some traps in the way, but youre just crossing terrain, there is no climbing to the rooftop of a cathedral or travessing ruins like in the first one, its just plain and boring. I miss the whip so much, being able to grapple into stuff, climb and swing around makes a whole lot of an difference. The only thing they improved upon the last game is the speed of wall climbing which is good if you're in a hurry, but if you're actually interested in exploring the terrain you will be frustrated because there isn't much interesting stuff going on in the enviroments of this game anyway unless you think it is cool to climb a boring building. The combat is astonishingly good, even fighting against weak enemies is fun because there are so many fun combat mechanics, I specially love jumping to dodge area attacks, blocking and jumping over my enemies to hit them in the back even though you only have three weapons they're good enough to make the combat interesting. The gameplay is fluid, hitting enemies always feels good, specially because the controls are so well thought out that you get used to them quite quickly. The combat is so good that you would recommend this game to anyone based on its combat alone. The bosses remain a highlight of the combat, featuring multi-phase well designed encounters that require mastery of all three weapons I just wish they were needed more often, because I already started the game in the highest dificulty I could find and it still felt easy. They distilled down the puzzles to the minimmal in this game, considering that the of puzzles in the first one were overhelming I was expecting some puzzles comming into this one, but the ones that stayed were good enough for me not to complain about it. The change in the characterization of Gabriel from a good guy to a bitter angry guy is kinda coherent with what happens to him in the first game, but now he calls himself "Dracul?" and sometimes spites out some nonsense which turns his characterization silly and cartoonish which bothers me. Other than that he is not that bad of character and I can take him as a decent Edge Lord despite of him being kinda of docile and obeying Zobek. The plot of this game is a mixed bag, some things are decent while others just doesnt make any sense, how are you supposed to feel sorry for the Dracula while he starts the game mudering a family and then foward in the game he shows mercy for humans, thats quite an incoherent characterization. I like the fact that the castle is an entity of its own, acting as an extension of the power of the Dracula which fights to consume his human side but some of the characters you find in the castle were supposed to be dead and I don't remember Dracula being able to bring back the souls of the dead to his domain. The game is great if you can turn a blind eye to the stealth system and I enjoyed it quite a lot. My final score is (8/10)
