Dont believe the bad scores!!!
Gameplay: the controls are easy enough to handle the battles. I can only deal with soul Calibre on easy level. So if I can handle the battles on this game, anyone can. The only problem seems to be switching weapons for different opponents, but I got the hang of it after 5 hours into this game.
Graphics/sound: beautiful artificial venice is good to look at. The sound could get a little lame when each area seems to have a theme and one theme only. The only issue is that we dont have a lot of options on customizing, like 3 outfits tops, after goin thru cheats, which is quite ps2.
Overall: ok I admit I had to go thru the forum to get answers, but heck it was a lot Less frustrating than divinity2. I only had to go for answers like 6 times on this game but had to have my laptop next to me with Divinity2.
Boss fights did get a bit frustrating at first but after going thru the online forum you can answers there pretty easily.
I think this game got a low rating because the main role is a chic. If scarlet is a guy then this could be the start of a cult.
