AFAIK the game scales only when you defeat one of the 7 deadly sins, except the first one.
Multiple playthroughs on YouTube suggest that the game is 10-15 hours long.
Yeah I was kind of shocked a bit too. I expected that if you would use fast travel it would reset an area but nope only when you die does it happen.
Well you could just purposely let yourself die at the last enemy in an area I guess.
Yeah, I also like the "oldschool feeling" many reviewers mentioned.
I'm not sure, I heard something about all enemies getting stronger every time you defeat a boss. Some reviews said that this kills the progression you feel in Metroidvania games (at the end of these games you're usually unstoppable) but I prefer having always some combat tension. We'll see.
They get a bit stronger but the earlier enemies are still chumps and basically fodder. Also you won't really be visiting earlier areas that much, I certainly haven't because there isn't much to find there outside of an item or two in one whole area.
This is Metroidvania basics for you, most modern Metroidvania games try to sell the illusion that the world has lots of secrets waiting for the player to have more upgrades, and the majority of them are a mere collectibles/upgrades that usually are not worthy re-visiting every area.
Just like Dark Souls you can recover the souls you got where you died by that floating soul looking thing. So you just have to not die going to retrieve them again. I have not fully tested it if you get all the souls you had on you previously back, but it appears to be the case.
I know I am still early in the game but so far it's off to a good start.
I agree that the camera needs better centering and should zoom out.
Same. Fury has more personality in the first 10 minutes than War and Death did in 50+ hours.
You likely gotta go to that new place. and that's a shortcut you unlock later. What's this new area look like?OK I'm confused here. The game wants me to go through here but I have no idea what to do. I went exploring and found a new place but I feel like I should have more levels before going there as they kick my ass pretty fast there.
Yeah I am playing on my Slim. It can be rough at times but I have played worse.
You can get him first but there's a fight you can do before that too, which you can get to from that same area. Basically there are two paths right at the place you are at.
Some have said that you can die repeatedly and not lose any of your souls. What you've dropped previously will be added to the new ''death pool'' of souls. Can anyone confirm this?
Yea you can die multiple times and the souls will still be there. Additionally you'll drop whatever souls you have in the souls in the new places that you die too and you can get those along with the original one.
If by that you mean Fury's stoey then yes.
