Quick spoiler‑free update on my Code Vein 2 experience so far In my last post I said the combat felt kinda weird at first, but after switching weapons my opinion changed a lot. It is way better now. It really depends on what you are using. Some weapons feel super satisfying and others not so much. Same with the skills. The later ones I unlocked feel great and way more impactful both visually and sound wise. The starting one still feels weak because the impact sound is off, maybe even bugged, not sure. Now that I have played more, my overall opinion has improved, but the PC optimization is rough. Even with an RTX 5080 and a 9800X3D, running 4K at max settings with DLSS Quality and unlocked FPS, open areas were usually sitting around 65 to 70 frames. Lowering settings barely helps unless you go to extremes, like switching to Ultra Performance DLSS and heavily cutting visual quality just to reach 120. There is no frame generation support either, which would have helped weaker systems. Maybe the game is better optimized on consoles since some studios prioritize them over PC, but I cannot say for sure. I also do not know how it performs at lower resolutions. Story wise, I am enjoying it more than the first game so far. Some areas look really good, others are just okay or meh. I really like the art style and the day and night cycle. One annoying visual bug is the tree and leaf shadows. They behave in a strange way and definitely need a fix as soon as possible. As a soulslike, it is fun. It feels similar to the original with some nice improvements and a few downgrades depending on what you care about. Combat grew on me a lot. The open world gives Elden Ring formula vibes. Just the formula, not comparing quality or scale. Visually, Bandai nailed the key NPCs. They look great. What feels strange is that some of the player outfits in Code Vein 2 are toned down compared to how they looked in the original game, making them less revealing, while the NPCs in this game still have very revealing designs. Although, compared to earlier footage, even some of those NPC outfits are now censored. For me it does not make sense to tone down the player outfits when NPCs like that are already in the game. There should not be any censorship at all. Enemy variety is good so far, but I cannot say much about boss fights yet since I have only fought one boss up to this point. Overall, I am more positive than in my last post. I do recommend the game, but if you can wait for a few patches, especially on PC, that might be the better choice. I do not know how it runs on consoles, so I cannot comment on that. Before buying, check how it performs on your setup, and maybe look at people with similar hardware who are already playing or testing it. If you are a fan of soulslike games and have a truly strong PC, it could be a good pick even now. If you are not a fan of the genre, waiting for a sale is probably the smarter option. Keep in mind that I have not played a lot yet or progressed far enough to give a full, solid opinion. These are just my early impressions. The game has not officially launched, so there might be a day one patch that fixes several issues, and my opinion may change as I get further into it. Thanks for the constant support. If you enjoy spoiler‑free gaming posts and honest opinions, a follow would be really appreciated. I will keep sharing how I feel about the game as I progress, so stay tuned!
