The game really needed a "test" feature, having to use paint on the side really isn't fun...
Also, guessing is way too strong and isn't really punished.

Writing this review after finishing Heavensward.
The game is truly amazing but you really need to have no expectations to enjoy it fully.
Are you expecting to play a fun class? Sorry you don't get your mechanics or even the class itself after 100 hours
Expecting to do dungeons with friends? Sorry you have to progress through the extremely slow MSQ to unlock them
Expecting a great story? Yeah sorry but that doesn't start until like 60 hours in and even then the pacing is still as slow as before.
But if you can deal with this slow burn it's one of the best games of all time.

Great combat system with cool perks, sweet PVP and PVE experience!
COMPLETELY RUINED BY BEING A DUMB USELESS EXTRACTION SHOOTER.
A complete waste, imagine all this game in an actual action RPG adventure!

A very short demo (took me 2 hours to 100% the whole thing which includes replaying it 3 times).
I can see the point to receive funding for the bigger game but it's a shame that this glorified demo is still 6 dollars, I can't recommend it unless they end up making it free, just buy the full game.

Let's start with some positive stuff:
-The original game is still on sale, this is an amazing move by everyone involved and in this day and age where original games get delisted all the time when a remaster comes out I can only praise this situation.
-Game was sold at a huge discount for owners of the original, and even without this discount the game is only 5 more dollars (excluding sales of course, in sales the original is usually sold at around a 2 dollar price)
-The game has finally received a patch that lets you change graphics setings! This doesn't change the new art direction that much but now you can optimize if you don't have a beast PC and you can remove a lot of visual blur with those new settings.
-It includes the director commentary of the original game, which is an amazing watch on the original vision.

Now I do not recommend this Graphical Remaster because the only thing this version adds is a "coop mode" that supports a second controller, you could always play coop with one controller if you wanted but coop was never the intended way to play (something the game even states when you pick coop which I find strange).
And the new graphics, while they can look good in some very specific moments, have completely messed up the character design, art direction and for some reason they also changed the cutscene direction as well. (I find all those 3 changes inferior to the original vision).

So now what would make this game a recommend then? What would appease the fans?
I think the possibility to switch between the original art and cinematic direction would be what is needed.
If this was an option this would be the definitive experience and well worth the price, but now I can only recommend that you play the original, and if you're looking for a coop game by the same team please play It Takes Two instead, it literally has all the coop mechanics of Brothers and more and was BUILT for coop.

Works out of the box on Windows.

I'm absolutely surprised how well the storyline has aged, this may have been written in 2012 but it talks about issues we are confronting right now in 2024.

Just putting this review early to counter the negative spam, capcom has been selling dlc pay to win for years since dmc 5 now, and if you played for like 2 hours you would know you can edit your character ingame with ingame currency...

We have now removed dying from the game as we "don't want to remind some players of tragic events in their life when they want to relax with a video game."
