Am playing this through a second time and is still hardcore as fuck.
Proper decent this if you haven't played it before get it - probably my best game of the last couple of years
Thought I would be able to breeze through it having done it before on import but - no
proper old school hard game love it
MUST HAVE game for PS3 owners 10/10 for me
Just on my first go through, funny how it;s so difficult but I don't want to throw the controller at the telly. Very good game. Highly recommended.
Also enjoying this very much, the online component is fantastic.
Black skeletons are as hard as fuck!
i might have to buy this then - fancied it but been too busy, and it sounds hard as fuck - but i like my games old school hard . mostly :)
Old skool hard it has in spades mate. Dead in one hit from normal enemies? You got it! Restarting a dungeon from its entrance when you die? Yup.Quote:

Don't forget the bit when you get killed 5 / 10 / 20 whatever times in a row it don't let you do an easy mode it just makes the enemies harder :)Quote:

I think the bosses are the easy bit but working your way through the level for an archer to shoot you in the and have to start all over again iss epic :great:
Its a fucker thats for sure. I couldnt beat that Tower Knight boss so now the game is just lying in my pile.
I'm guessing you went to do it the traditional way, stage 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc..., so got stumped on the boss of world 1-2?Quote:

i gave up on this game. the design is great and all - but its completely inaccessible.
eg. no information in the game about something as essential as the cling ring....
missing information and grinding in a single player game just killed it for me.
The cling ring is useful, but hardly essential.Quote:

Also do the black phantom skeletons on world 4 if you think the normal ones are hard :)
You don't HAVE to grind at all through any of the game I did none at all first play through.Quote:

seen a video of someone beating this game with a new character in around 1 hour 10 - took me around 30 hours last time
and I love the fact that it gives you no info at all on anything you have to use your head and work shit out yourself!
I think I'll be getting this.
If you do, get the Black Phantom edition - the guide that comes with it is quite useful.Quote:
