    With respect to your comments at the end: unfortunately, this wasn't anybody's passion project or an attempt to fix previous mistakes. It's a completely different studio, and the third who's worked on this game; after the release and subsequent failure of the original, the devs sold off the IP. It was purchased by a giant corporation who hired a team to make a sequel. After years of work they fired that team and reportedly scrapped everything, hiring another team only to do the same to them. The current studio, Hexworks, was put together by that corporation specifically for this product. Seems like they had about 2-3 years to work on it, which is very obviously not enough to pull off something like this. Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming the individual devs here, I'm blaming the shitbag corporate overlords who'd push out a clearly unfinished game just to hit Friday the 13th, but the point stands: this team is several levels removed from the original, it was being made by a brand new studio, and it needed more time. Fuck CI Games and fuck what they put those poor people through, I'm sure working on this game was a nightmare.

    The game is a lot better now, there there's enemies, the lock on is fix, most of the bugs and frame issues are squash and all the bosses are a lot more aggressive.

    Also also, I love that the philosophical message came after "that bitch". It makes my day to hear these sprinkled bits of heartfelt poetry in the midst of your silly commemtary and random references. And how suddenly, it goes right back to silly commentary.
    11:10 YOU CAN PET THE DOG?!?!

    24:25 This is also...... INCREDIBLY specific. Are you okay? Do we need to tell Kevin his shoes are untied? I'm sure it'll distract him for a while.
    24:25 when did they add Rajang into this game??? He's so not intimidating in this game.

      I love the aesthetic of the areas in this game but hate how twisty and windy they all are, half the time I constantly have to recheck the area 3 or more times in and out of unbral and end up forgetting which ways I have/haven't been.
      That being said I'm doing my second run and am just about finished having only got the game a week ago, its a really fun game, just needs some tweaking to make performance, movement, the lock on and certain animations less jank and itd be an amazing game.

    While I personally like this game, I do, it is flawed. Very flawed. However, and I am sure you have learned by now (as I am only 6:30 into the video) That +12 at the begining of the game wasnt you getting +12 stats, that was the scaling modifier on your casting implement. So if you got a new one or upgraded your current one, that number would eventually go up as your radiance scaling would go from a tinny c- to up to a A
    Edit; I really do not understand my PC. Its old, using a 2080, a HDD, everything that should say it should not run this game. Yet with me turning down graphics, it ran like butter for me. I really do not get it.

    But the biggest cardinal sin this game commits is the final boss of the radient ending, im finally there hyped because its time to fight this god that was built up to be hench af and caused all this crazy shit thats ruined the world but it turns out to be... a literal last boss variant of deacons of the deep from ds3, possibly one of the worst bosses in the entire franchise, i was beyond dissolutioned when i finished killing mobs just for adyr to keel over, due and have the credits start to roll, literally went 'really' out loud. 😂

You do not do more damage with two hits than one with two-handed. I don't have the numbers, but I was killing swamp enemy with three attacks. I leveled up inferno to 30 and both weapons to +6 to finally kill a mid tier early game enemy in two attacks. I have never felt so weak in souls.

    Prime example of someone whining about something way more than what is deserved. Lotf is amazing and he’s complaining about trivial things and about things that are straight up false. Also I don’t know why people are having so much trouble with frame rates, frame rate drops have been no issue at all in my game because they are very rare, very short lived, and never happen in an important or stressful scenario like fighting a boss or a bunch of enemies. Hell, even elden ring has given me more frame rate issues.
