Translation:
Dante's Inferno lends quite some gameplay elements from other successful franchises, but the fact remains that the game these elements seamlessly manages to weave together a fun and interesting game experience. The fights are fast and bloody, the enemies and environments contain sufficient variation and the eerie atmosphere fits perfectly with the story. Anyone looking for a fun action game where no one liter of blood is more or less looked at Dante's Inferno was definitely the right place.
Plus Points:
+ Smooth, tight gameplay
+ Bloody battles
+ Handsome Audiovisual
+ Creepy atmosphere
+ Varied enemies and environments
Downsides:
- Sometimes too short levels
- Trial and error with some bosses
There are good video game protagonists, and there are bad video game protagonists.
I disagree that max is unlikable. Chloe is infinitely more unlikable in my opinion.
Most of these aren't even that bad. Especially comparing to others like Squall "Whatever" Leonhart, Forspoken's Frey, and the guy from Atomic Heart.
i had to stop reading after the "blatant misogyny" in the Dantes inferno section.
i actually liked Max haha.
the forspoken chick is missing tho
Grab your katana, and slice your way through this list featuring the best hack and slash games the PlayStation 3 had to offer.
Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.
heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.
I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.
Dante's Inferno at 4K 60FPS!
Sad this may never get the sequel it deserves. It's still one of the best GoW clones around.
I would love to revisit my old PS3 games played at a higher framerate and resolution. UC2, TLOU, GOW3, KZ2 & 3, Demon Souls
Downsides:
"trial and error with some bosses"
Give me a break! Do you want the game to hold your hand?!?! Most boss battles are trial and error!
