Use the Konami code on this site. biscuits
I'll give the game a 7.5 so far.

Switch to mist by pressing d pad right then lb hold rt direction and x then you have 3 seconds to press rb then press d pad up hold rt direction and x while his minions jump around you making the lock on harder.
I don't get that.
It found it much easier to:
1) Use an Ensnared Demon relic for Infinite Magic.
2) Freeze the prick with either the Void Sword Projectile (takes two shots) or Icy Crest (Projectile Modifier + direct attack).
3) Attack with the Chaos Claws. The Flame Claws ability (Projectile modifier + area attack) is excellent for this. They one shot the grunts as well, so you most likely don't have to worry about the EXP medal requirement.

Agreus' stealth section almost made me throw my controller against the wall not only was it so damn tedious and unnecessarily hard, but the repeated dialogue was so damn cheesy.That said, I just defeated Agreus and am still playing this game.
All in all, LoS 2 is not better than the first, but is still a solid game. As of right now, I'll give it a generous 8.
The Agreus' section is the main reason why I will limit my playthroughs of this game to like 2, max. Shoddy design. It's one thing to make it frustrating due to a challenge. It's another to make it frustrating due to poor design choices.

Also there is the vampire/skeleton mission w. here you cant break the shields.
Use mist chaos blitz attack it doesnt heat up the shields.313
Need to find a proper collectible guide the gameradar one is missing 2 memorials and a diary....mmm
As for Agreus just use mist as much as you can it helps you float over the leaves 2nd time I beat the steath part under 5 minutes.Mist is very useful it works during all unbreakable grapple attacks can get you through the riot police mines even if they impale you.

Yeah, I used the Mist form against Agreus. I used it to just move past him when he charged at Dracula (after which he lost track of Dracula, lulz). I couldn't target any bells apart from the one the game points out, and Agreus loved to hang around Dracula's location, which just made it more annoying.
Cool. Will give that move a go. I just waited for them to attack, and then countered. Was a little annoying and though.
This one seems to be good. I'm missing a couple of the memorials, so I will use it soon.

And have you found the brotherhood scroll/soldier diary that talks about the Konami code? haermm
_______________________
Also, I finished the story today. What an anticlimatic way to resolve the plot.
Satan & Zobek were pathetic jokes in this game. What happened to the manipulative schemers from LoS?
And yeah, the plot in this game is pretty damn weaksauce because of that ending.
I sincerely hope there is DLC that resolves this properly. Or another game.
And DLC with Victor as well, as Victor is so much like LoS Gabriel that he should be a playable character.
To find all.diaries I used.the gameradar guide for memorials I used the one you posted and the gameradar one.I finally got a 1000gs yesterday.
Thanks for.the link though.
Didnt really read them gonna check them out.
I like that the game has tons of concept art.Im missing the video gallery like in the old games where you can rewatch the cutscenes .They should bring that back to everydamn game.
Some of the boss finishers were pretty badass I could rewatch those a few times.Like when he casually dances around Abaddon then punches his face of and bitchslapes him sending him flying.
The ending was disappointing.The Alucard plot was pretty cool though.
Hoping for dlc though.
Some stuff that didnt make sense.
Why was Gabriel the Prince Of Darkness?
Story said the one who beats the Lords Of Shadow becomes the POD but he didnt defeat Zobek in Los.
When did he get back to full power?
How come Satan feared to confront him yet he needed to get back to his
Castle to beat the 2nd acolyte...
Hoping for Dlc though despite the story flaws I liked the game.
Report: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 Revelations DLC Has Playable Alucard
Information ripped from the text files of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 would seem to indicate upcoming story-based DLC in which players take the role of Alucard. It's called Revelations.

There's some interesting stuff in there.
The Brotherhood of Light thinks that Zobek is 112 years old and human. haermm
And one of the scrolls state that the blast from the prologue released energy comparable to that of a meteorite impact.
400 concept art pictures, yeah. No need for an artbook.
Yeah, the finishers were badass. My favourite one was the Gorgon. Easily the most badass one in the game IMO.
Though it was funny how Alucard of all people ended up outsmarting both Satan and Zobek, but seeing as those two were tools in this game, it's understandable.
Gabriel was the Prince of Darkness because he was fated to be the Prince of Darkness. He decided to go along with his Fate. Which is another problem I have with the plot of this game. Very few of the major themes from the previous game were present here.
Dunno. Maybe since the rest of the world thinks he beat Zobek?
I know right? Only difference between the Dracula that fought the 2nd Acolyte, and the Dracula that fought Satan, was that the latter had the Vampire Killer, the Mirror of Fate, and his memories of the plan.
Then again, Satan seemed weaker in LoS2 than he was in LoS, even though he was supposedly at full strength in LoS2. No God Mask or Devil Mask or magic, and he doesn't even fight Dracula head on.
Yeah, there's DLC with Alucard that's supposed to come out. Still hoping for Victor Belmont DLC though, if only because he'd play like LoS Gabriel.
Went through few diaries.Yeah the blast was uber powerful.
It killed 500 000 brotherhood members.
How could be Satan weaker?
He was all buffed up while in Los he was skinny..biscuits
Yeah but Gabriel now had the power of the Forgotten One which he didnt have when they first fought.
The way he killed Satan was meh as well.
Left him on the street like a hobo.haermm
I hope Alucard has some unique powers as well.
Some new challenges would be cool but dont add pod achievement for them.
They could also add some new Dracula story stuff.

And oddly enough, left their bodies intact, but the Paladin was disintegrated. Brotherhood armor is Mountain level+ in durability, and Dracula can break through that shit. excellent
He was amped when he fought Satan the first time as well. All those souls that were trapped and stuff. And he was preaching forgiveness. awesome
Meanwhile, Satan was using Alucard as a shield in LoS2, instead of fighting himself.
Satan looked like a hobo as well. His design was meh.
I just hope we get to play with Alucard's actual outfit, and not his Zobek Bodyguard outfit.
Speaking of outfits, do you have any of the DLC costumes?
I dont have any of them.
Just checked the dlc costumes they are pretty much alike dark dracula has white hair and his outfit is black and grey.Armoured dracula has black outfit and his costume is a bit different.Havent seen them ingame though.
Agreed on Alucard outfit.
I wanted to see more of Dragon form we barely get to see it for like 5 seconds.
Why are the daggers so phuckin useless?
Its impossible to kill anyone with them.
If they are gonna make another game it should be Dracula vs brotherhood part.
Allowing you to create your army of monsters and vampires laying the smackdown on the brotherhood.That would be badass!
