Why does everyone hate this? It clearly had a lot of effort put into making it, it's a very long game, by far the longest in the series, so there is a real sense of going on a journey and locations are very varied too, while Castlevania games normally take place in and around Dracula's castle Lords of Shadow takes you through villages, forests, swamps, snowy areas, castles, ruins of ancient civilization, music box and many other areas which honestly all look great

it's the second one that people dislike
I hate it because it's bad.
I bought this used, played it for about 10 minutes and decided to drop it forever
I loved it.
The sequel released a bit too late so I didn’t play it. Heard it was bad though.
Because it has Castlevania in the name, if it wasn't a Castlevania name but some new IP it would be either ignored or liked.
But it isn't. So shut the fuck up.
Everything but the boring railroad gameplay was cool
"Metroidvania" autists don't like action games
I don't hate it, OP. It's my fave Castlevania game after SOTN. As you said, I loved all the detail into the locations and all the monsters they added. Especially how much more demonic they became later on into the game. The gravedigger was cool.
