Arh, noooo, already gone bloodlust just to see what it is! I quite liked the necromancer and shade boss fights. I also really liked the scale of the frank boss fight. My least favourite was definitely the gargoyle, whom was so bloody hard to get to, then brutally easy to beat, cos there's a safe spot. The thing that got really annoying was the journey from the save point to the boss, which often took out a few health. If I took damage, I'd suicide, just to avoid losing blood for the battle. The shade was particularly painful, with the ghosts and random spawns from the coffins making a clean journey to the boss 1 in 10. But I still really enjoyed, it's just a shame that bloodlust mode wipes the previous save.
Bummer! I definitely should have informed players in game before letting them wipe their save. Shoot my bad!
Interesting feedback on the bosses, thanks! Any issues you’ve had with them are totally fair too. It’s neat to see the diversity in opinions on them. A lot of the difficulty is determined by the path players take through the game and the order of bosses they fight. So for instance, the gargoyle can be fought really early on (3rd boss) or one of the last ones so he can be very tough or not too bad. Same with pretty much all of the bosses, which is neat because players struggling with one boss can probably find another to fight.
I think my personal favorites are the gargoyle and the weaver. I especially like how claustrophobic and tense the weaver fight can get if fought early in the game. Though I’ve also heard a lot of people struggle with the weaver, which is understandable too.
There is technically a way of getting your save file back! Though it will probably take some trial and error. If you want, you can go into the game’s files and adjust values until you get back to where you were :) I know it’s not ideal, sorry again about that!
