It was very mediocre. The blood codes offering build variety was the best idea it had, but ultimately it boiled down to stacking buffs and then deleting enemies instantly while the game generally played like any other sub-par Souls clone.
Hopefully 2 ditches the stamina meter and embraces the action more like AI Limit did.

Eh, wouldn't say that. It's very aggressive with regenerating resources on hit (and especially on parries) while being able to add special abilities and spells to its control scheme in a way that souls-games struggle with to this day.
The game could and certainly did throw lots of enemies at you in some situations, but crowd-control was actually doable in this game, mostly thanks to abilities. Meanwhile, DaS-fags get mindbroke if they have to fight more than three enemies that aren't the most braindead zombies.

Not really. I've found the only people who say it's the best Souls-like game are massive weebs who only say that because of the waifus and character creation.
I remember this one retard who insisted it was better than the original Dark Souls somehow, and we all know why he thinks that and it's not the gameplay.

the game is way too repetitive, so doing the side content feels like a chore, the level design is lazy at best most of the time, and the dlc is a scam, but at least the character creator is pretty good

the fact the game was built to have the ai companion or just play kiting to lure enemies to split up is retarded
But I find the entire concept of 'you don't get healing outside of these limited potions between checkpoints, even with spells' to be even weirder. It's like the game was designed to be level by level but they didn't want to do it in the end.
still beat it after refunding it and pirating it

I didn't really notice it being designed for the AI helper to be there rather than the AI helper just being a default easy mode. The bits where you trigger a mob of enemies that spawn and rush you down I mostly just ran away from and they pretty much instantly kill an AI helper anyway.

I enjoyed it. Pretty fun in co-op or with an ai but doable solo if you just want to finish the main game (I didn't have the tism to finish the last bit of post game solo). I like how the spells are implemented and wish other soulslikes (at least from what i tried) pulled from this. Shiftkey access to spells without having to swap to a spell tool and feeding those spells with smacks is much better than what From currently uses. The only thing I fault the game for is the small amount of standard enemy variety; there's a lot of repetition when exploring. Actively swapping classes and using spells helps add to the variety and is encouraged though. Story and vibe is cringekino depending on your tolerance on anime bullshit. I liked it and particularly loved a run up in a desert section of the game.

I agree with most of this but I didn't like the smacks for resource as someone that just wanted to play a caster. Just having a regenerating magic resource OR a caster weapon that let you play like a caster even when not casting the big spells would have been nice. Otherwise I liked the game. I think the smack system worked for melee builds though and melee abilities or buffs.

No. I played it to completion on a normal and then NG+ playthrough and can't think of a single redeeming quality except that it was very quick and easy to speedrun the second playthrough compared to the monotony of souls+ games. Since every level is actually just a small quasi-puzzle filled with ambush spam.

Considering it's the second best "Soulslike" after Elden Ring (which is only better because of the sheer scale of it), "good" is an understatement for Code Vein. Its only major failing is the poor postgame content, as the DLC and Tower of Trials weren't particularly engaging.
Otherwise, the intuitive storytelling, subdued yet sympathetic approach to characterisation, innovative systems like the companions and Blood Codes, excellent antagonists, varied environmental designs, intricate character creation, boss rematches in the Depths, sexy girls, generally high-tier soundtrack and serviceable area design all elevate it to being amongst the best.
With any luck, Namco will improve on the aspects of this game that had the most potential with the sequel.

It was fun, and I enjoyed it more than Elden Ring. The post-game is terrible and it actually has a plot which made me feel more invested that DaS, but the gameplay itself is less polished. That being said, the decision to tie it into God Eater was probably the worst twist I have ever seen.
