This thread was created to share what specialized press are talking about Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon. The reviews, scores and impression, with a link and a small sentence for each one. If you find full articles or anything else about it, you can post here or you can create a thread for it too, no problem  Also, be sure to check comments at each article, if it has, to get a small glimpse of the overall feedback.
IGN: BLOODSTAINED: CURSE OF THE MOON REVIEW (8.2/10)Curse of the Moon’s title hints at the exploratory, perfectionist mentality its creators seem to want to encourage.
PC GAMER: BLOODSTAINED: CURSE OF THE MOON REVIEW (80/100)If only all stretch goals were as good as this.
TWINFINITE: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon Review (4/5)Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is a superb game.
GAME INFORMER: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon (7,5/10)Lukewarm Blooded Homage
CUBED3: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon (PC) Review (7/10)As far as throwbacks go, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is a worthwhile venture.
VENTUREBEAT: The RetroBeat — Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is a perfect Castlevania successorMaybe you’d think you shouldn’t expect much from it, but it’s one of the best retro games ever made.
USGAMER: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon Manages to Improve on a Pantheon-Level Classic it's games like Curse of the Moon that make me glad Castlevania's legacy is rising again under Koji Igarashi, even if we can't call that legacy by its true name.
DESTRUCTOID: Review: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon (8/10)(...)it does exactly what it needs to do, and helps bolster the new legacy of Bloodstained proper before it's even out.
There may be more to come.That's all folks! |

That Game Informer review...  "It's not perfect in its attempts to be like an old game because it's too much like the old games" basically? Did he know he could turn knockback off? That there's a bunch of modes to play with different challenges? "Moderate" replay? get outta here |

The Game Informer review is the definition of why I disregard game journalists and trust only word of mouth and always try to play games at least once.
Reminds me a little of this.

I agree but we can't do anything about it. I actually think it's not like the old games as much due to the programming and level design. I had found many ways to cheese through enemies that isn't as prevalent or easy to do in other old castlevania games particularly castlevania 3 making me think that maybe it's the first time Inti Creates made a game that's supposed to be like the classic old castlevania games. That's a good thing though because I wanted and played the game on veteran and it wasn't easy  |

If you only have Zangetsu, well...heh |
