Finished Blood 2,which I had played before when it first came out.
My original opinion stands: It is not as terrible as legend has it, but it definently a sea of mediocrity with a few brilliant bits floating in it. Sadly, the few really good levels (The Airship level and the Cathedrial) all happen early in the game.
I found the Ancient one, The final boss in the game, to be very tough at first..he was killing me over and over again...but then I stumbled on to a tactic that,if used, made him a wimp like all the other Blood bosses...weak bosses being a prolbem even in the overall brilliant Blood one.
