Alright, I'm lost I don't know where to go...
I'm at 44% map clear (though it's probably a little higher than it's probably supposed to be, since I did some platforming bullshit to get to an area that it didn't seem like I was supposed to go yet)

I got the silver bromide and used it to get "identification", what's next?
Thanks. How would you say the difficulty compares after this so far?
Yes
Not sure I've only played mostly on nightmare and it's pretty freaking hard one of the most consistently hard games I've played in a while
It's j
Even in the best parts, it's just too *SHINY* looking, as if everything is made of polished chrome.
You'll hear me whine about a e s t h e t i c, and I think it is definitely warranted here, but don't get me wrong. The game does have a look to it.

Had a really good time with the doppelganger, learned to avoid most of her attacks but couldn't really do
much damage to her. Ended up luring her to the sides and hitting her with the spear shard - for whatever reason they hit her twice each at that position.

The game has a plastic like look. Is the only thing that bothers me a little. Everything looks like those shiny dolls and not in a good way.
You can get a soul from a jellyfish which allows you to spray water and thus move underwater
alchemist in the desert => you get a white shard which makes you sink underwater, enabling you to get chests
And then theres a shard which makes you move faster with method 2
head to the bridge of evil in the SE of the castle after the garden of silence
I'm in the same boat, man. I got about 90 minutes in yesterday, and I'm annoyed that I have to start over now.
Reviewers didn't get the game until yesterday because they didn't want people playing without the day one patch.
Yeah that 10 hour time is basically if you just play through the game on normal from the looks of things
In the town area where all your NPC friends are, in the open field area just to the left of of the four exit corridor that connects to Dominique and Johannes, theres' a guy who will plant your seed and grow crops for you.
To be fair I think those shots in particular, especially the bottom, are going for an ornate metallic sheet work look so some amount of shine makes sense, compared to the flatter matte of the stone floor in the top shot, but in general I agree the overall slathered materials on everything looks bad.
Oh My god I just realized I never went back to the left and thought only that one small section with the kill monsters Quest lady was was the "hub" area
Can anyone help me with these two queries? I'm at 80% map completion if you want a spoiler gauge.
Does anyone know where to go after fighting Gebel (specifically after slashing the moon with the Zangetsuto)? I've been wandering around for 90 minutes now.
Also, how do you get to Benjamin in the Oriental Sorcery Lab? He's sat under a stone arch and I can't for the life of me find a way in.

remember that odd red moon in the garden of silence? Also they hint about chasing the moon in their exchange after beating gebel
On the xbone, but kind of don't want to play anymore until they get these bugs worked out. A bit disappointed in the lack of polish I've seen here and there after being in development for so long
There's a wind sword you can get from scissorman enemies that is ridiculous (especially since you get it after the sword passive which I believe is the passive tutorial shard). Incredibly fast weapon that doesn't even need to be tied to attack animations so you can just spam the ever living shit out of it.
In case you haven't figured it out, as you posted this a bit ago...
Your main place to go is the Entrance. Look for an area with one of those statues that if you walk into it, it hurts you. You have to Invert and use the grab power you got from the second boss.
However, before you even tackle that, you need to backtrack a bit. You also need to equip an armor that makes you immune to spikes, and that's found by Inverting on the first 3D scrolling screen at the two towers. They housed the armor under golden spikes. You need this armor to progress, and when you have it, do the above.
Hope this helps. When the game is clear about pointing you in a direction, it's great. When it stops giving you bulletpoints in terms of areas and things to consider, it gets confusing. This one is rather mystifying as unlike Bloodless' ability, you don't even know you need to use Invert at the towers because it's in an area you can't see unless you were able to Invert..

Also, for those who have the backer DLC, I think you know where to look to find IGA. ;)
I fucking love that weapon, I had to farm for it for a good 30 minutes because the first time I got it I lost it after getting killed by the witch that is right above the first scissor man you encounter.
Range is too short for it to have any real use on Nightmare sadly
I was looking forward to playing Bloodstained this week, but apparently I forgot to confirm my shipping address to FanGamer before the copies went out for shipping, so it looks like my copy will be delayed, I dunno how long for. Dammit all. The only reason I even knew about the re-confirmation was because I was watching Excessive Profanity's stream of the game and decided to check my backer page on a whim.
That said, reading through this thread, it seems that the game has quite a few bugs to sort out, so maybe that's a blessing in disguise?
Oh well, back to the Castlevania Collection I go...

If it's what I'm thinking...
The Sword familiar can be equipped like a normal sword. I'm trying to figure out how to make the sword stronger. Rank, Grade, and Level all make sense but at the moment I don't know what if any combination of the three make it better.
It's a callback to SotN. There's something you need to do in the castle to get a better ending
