Granted, I've never been very big on hack n' slash. I enjoyed the God of War games for their spectacle, but have always found them to be somewhat tedious to replay, and I haven't really. into anything else in the genre save Dynasty Warriors. |
The Demo is not a very good indicator of the true game. The full game is way better because you purchase new moves, weapon upgrades and have powers. The bosses are pretty good as well. The variety in bosses is great. They all provide something different and unlike god of war 3 beating them has greater rewards. God of War 3 is still better, but Castlevania LOS has the right idea in most areas. The DLC will probably set the full game over 30 hours as well.
Another note:
God of War 3 had you win weapons that had nothing to do with the overall game; in essence, they just provided variety. In Castlevania every weapon has a purpose to help you get through the game, find clues, solve puzzles, etc. The game also rewards you for playing levels over again complete with trials and duties. Riding beasts also has more use than in God of War 3. There is a reason why you need to tame them.
