After getting 220+ level, 100% achievements, gathering all Blood Codes and unlocking all Gifts I am absolutely ready to say - this game is worth to be bought. I'm not a fan of souls-like games but it was a very nice experience for me and i recommend to all people which don't like DS but love anime to try it. I died countless times but still love this game so much. Let's take a look on "+" and "-" of this game.

The good parts:
+The combat as expected from this particular genre is fascinating
+Huge amount of skills and variety of builds
+Breathtaking soundtracks
+Cute companions (Mia, Eva and especialy Io)
+A pretty nice character builder which allows you to make your waifu

The bad parts:
-Some annoyng bugs such as: you cannot leave the exchange window with your friend and you cannot interact with npc or mistle on base
-Level design is a little bit boring
-Most weapons/armors are useless

Code Vein is set in a post-apocalyptic vision of near future, after mysterious thorns pierced through Earth’s crust. The human civilization is in total ruin, and the only survivors are the so-called Revenants – vampires with superpowers who live in a community known as Vein. Its members abandoned their humanity and most of their memories to survive in a new, harsh reality. However, they are far from accepting their fate and try to unfold the secrets of the fallen world. They must also suck blood regularly, or they will transform into blood-lusting monsters.
During world exporing we will find a lot of new friends which we can help to find Vestiges. Collecting them all allows us to know their mysterious past and restore their memories.

The gameplay of Code Vein takes after the tradition of the Dark Souls series. We exploring locations that aren’t clearly separated and fighting with various enemies, including powerful bosses. There is also the blood-sucking mechanic that plays a major part in the game, and is implemented by using Blood Veil, which also acts as an armor. After successful Drain Attack, we will gain Ichor which allows us to use Gifts – special abilities with various effects, ranging from strengthening our character, through weakening enemies, up to direct attacks on them. Blood Veil appears in many shapes and forms, as do characters’ skills and weapons, letting us use various strategies.
One of the important elements of Code Vein is a system that lets us play with an AI-controlled companion. We select the companion from non-playable heroes, who become more numerous as we progress through the game. This allows us to complete tasks that would be too much of a challenge for a single adventurer. However, our friend isn’t just there to help us in combat – he can аct by himself and his actions might result in situations which will require our support.


The game is fully voiced and the Japanese voices are pretty damn good. Also I tried English dub and it's pretty nice too. But the most my favorite thing in this game are soundtracks. Thanks to this I am always stuck in main menu for a while.
