@@pixelcat29 In fact, most of tgecendings, including Ultimate Good/Evil and Future Endings show that Alcedor and Cervul are side by side through thick and thin. Looking forward to The Stranger update this Halloween!
Cervul: I did it! I beat the devil terrorizing our people! The Commoners: Great job Alcedor! Cervul: Wait but I- Alcedor: Yes, I truly did an amazing job. Cervul: But you didn't- Commoners: Truly there is no one greater than Alcedor! Cervul: I should've stayed on the boat.
I freaking LOVE Cervul. Watching the updates on him I already expected him to be pretty good, but damn, he's totally OP. Only experienced his "good" version, now I'll go for "evil" path. Judging from your description though, it seems like I'll be disappointed a little, since Cervul's crossbow and banner are definitely the highlights. Banner especially, fully upgraded it's busted as all hell and I like it lol. Healing bandages are the reason this mode should be played on classic difficulty only imho: combined with Alcedor's healing abilities and additional save points in castles makes everything way too easy (I played on casual 'cause I've already gotten all endings on classic and am tired of insta-death pits). Pavise is pretty good too, but I think this is something that works way better when there are actually 2 players playing. Overall, the game is way more fun to play in this mode thanks to the double monster spawns. Big props to devs for allowing the players to play as "evil" versions of Alcedor and Cervul from the very beginning by entering "Swordcedor" and "Cervile" as their names. Btw, I find it pretty humorous that, if you run out of extra lives and Alcedor is deceased, trying to interact with people as Cervul will result in him saying "I better get lord for this...", like his duke totally didn't die right in front of him lmao
Evil Cervul does have some nice options for tools as his ichor potions are much better healing than bandages and the demon minion does really good passive damage and works well against most bosses provided you keep them near. The void shield is overall better than pavise since you can absorb projectiles to shoot a beam and evil Cervul lacks the reflect projectiles that he can do with pavise/banners. Poison daggers is probably more effective for bosses overall - I just like the piercing quality of the crossbow for quickly clearing minions. And thanks for mentioning the dialogue line. I'll still be compiling the cutscenes and as much dialogue as possible but I suspect I'll miss some of the more obscure dialogues.
I've actually encountered quite a few bugs going around as Cervul in couch co-op. The banner is so good that the screen can't scroll fast enough and some bosses legit just can't spawn because the screen isn't in the 'correct' position. It'd be funny if it didn't soft-lock me on the second-to-last boss on the pure good path
I would definitely recommend it even before the two player update. Not only is it a really good retro game (though Classic difficulty can be annoying at times from instant death water/lava/etc.) but there's a number of easter eggs from NES era games and the good/evil paths allow for trying different things. I would advise that whichever you choose you fully commit to in order to reach the ultimate good or evil endings.
@@CrankyTemplar Yeah I chose to slay the first guy who turned into the boss and I couldn't get Ultimate good ending from there. I only fought Belphegor then my game ended. I couldn't get enough moral to get the defeat the cultist missions :(
Glad they added a little to this game, wish they would expand on it quite a bit though. I lived in this game once i started playing and would love for more. Its OST is a regular on any playlist for sure of mine.
Well, this update just cemented my opinion that this game is to 80s gaming what Cuphead was to 30s animation. (Cervil is even dressed in blue for God's sake!)
Without you he loses a lot of men, as you can see if you get the "sins of omission" achievement. He could absolutely deal with the cult himself but it'd be a pretty pyrrhic victory.
I'd highly recommend Infernax. I generally do censor things like that to be safe, and I may not be 100% consistent, but I guess I feel the context doesn't warrant it as say the succubi in the ultimate evil ending which generally are more related to sexual content.
@@CrankyTemplar I might check it out! I usually also censor my videos where possible, but I also got videos like Dante's Inferno which is... hard to censor since it was a quite major part of the game. It's just hard to know youtube's policies and standpoints with these type of games
Wanted to write this in my first comment, but I forgot. You may have realized this already (I haven't watched the video fully due to evil path spoilers, so I can't tell if you did :D), but you can throw axes forward at an even lower angle by ducking and holding the left/right direction. Sadly, you've already done all bosses without damage, but hopefully this information can save you some headaches with aiming for future playthroughs xD Edit: you did figure it out in Baron of Decay fight! That's to be expected though, because I have no idea how you would've been dealing with those little red freaks without taking damage lmao
They use the axe throwing that makes the most arc, so the axe Hits multiple times. It's not a matter of if it hits but it is about the damage it deals.
I'm starting to play with cervul, my god he is really powerful by his own, but from what I saw in this video, the sprite from the 4th tier of Axe (I mean the holy one) is quite ugly, those sparkles that just sticks to the axe are really out of place, for me atleast. And also as other mentioned, the crossbow is extremely powerful and easy to use, you can easily kill everything without moving at all and with unlimited ammo with the base tool. It would be really neat if they rebalance the gameplay with Cervul giving him more limits as his role should be (a supportive squire) that if he wants to be the main hero he should have a real challenge as all of his tools are not eternal (atleast until he goes to a shrine)
Aaw was hoping his firearm would be a different one as well like a shotgun (okay that would fot alcedor style more than his if anything), a big riffle or a magnum revolver.
Never heard of this game but the boss In the top left corner of the thumbnail reminds of a yugioh card. I can’t remember the name of it, but it is gold and Is making the same pose
You need to be in range of it to get the benefit. You can have Cervul holding it while playing as Alcedor to get the benefit or you can set them down for either of the two in range of it to benefit. Even maxed out the range isn't that great. With some upgrades to it Cervul can melee holding a banner (but not throw an axe while holding a banner).
Cervul is too OP. I am playing with my daughter, but she has nothing to do, as I obliterate everything on screen with my arrows. I wish they where limited, which would make it more balanced :(
Only for the Future ending which is on an ultimate good playthrough with the demonology book mostly/fully completed or if you enter the Konami code to start a run with it active.
This is only with two player mode. Alcedor uses a mace/sword and magic and renaming Alcedor to various codes lets him use a variety of other weapons. Plus the Konami lets you play in Contra mode.
@@EmiHnH There's also cheat codes that further alter gameplay. If you're a diehard fan of The Evil Dead, name yourself "stranger" and look up the chainsaw code.
Don't have to use Cervul if you don't want to. There's loads of secret characters to try. Like Ash- I mean, the stranger, who has a shotgun and can wield a chainsaw with an extra cheat.
The tale of the world's strongest squire with his ability to summon an infinite amount of throwing axes ...he should get his own game
They’re not even throwing axes. They’re just regular hatches, that he lobs at people.
Hey. Atleast its better than Dung cleaning
Did you have to come after Harold?
I love how they add Cervul into not only the game but also the story, cut-scenes and endings.
Go’s to show how well made this game is

Still wonder what his ending was like though.

"okay but what if we make a game where you play as the hammer bros? But the setting is hell. Like "Berserk and Hellraiser had a baby" Hell."

hahahahah👍
Cervul is the GOAT
No he is the Squire
Never heard of this game but it looks dope AF! 👍
Definitely recommend it if you like retro style games.
As soon as I saw Baphomet the first thing that ran through my head was…
The Longer the Icon of Sin is on Earth the stronger it will become!
This game looks really sick, I really think I should get it...

@@CrankyTemplar well I bought after the deux of die update came out so yeah
It's only $20 USD on Switch, and it's pretty worth it.
@@CrankyTemplar Yeah I chose to slay the first guy who turned into the boss and I couldn't get Ultimate good ending from there. I only fought Belphegor then my game ended. I couldn't get enough moral to get the defeat the cultist missions :(

Anyone else getting flashbacks to AVGN's review of Ghosts and Goblins? GET DA KNIFE!!!
The squire is a Belmont ;)

Looks amazing. Gonna get this soon.
Nice, hope you enjoy the game!

is so EPIC
Well, this update just cemented my opinion that this game is to 80s gaming what Cuphead was to 30s animation. (Cervil is even dressed in blue for God's sake!)
BIG agree.
I can’t help but wonder why Tancred doesn’t just deal with everything on his own cause judging by his boss fight absolutely could
probably not as skilled as fighting monsters, he's trained to fight other people
Without you he loses a lot of men, as you can see if you get the "sins of omission" achievement. He could absolutely deal with the cult himself but it'd be a pretty pyrrhic victory.
If Contra Servul had the ability to throw grenades and shoot a charged laser...
his name is servul?
ha.. 😅
Cervul, silly. Though, in his Future form, he is more known as 'Joe Carbine'.
Отрадно видеть, что игры в ретро-стиле все еще в моде.
Hey, that squire is throwing axes like Dio threw knives...
After seeing this I think might get the game now.
The boss at 22:30 Clearly has a problem facing the player
Its because he threw his trident to the left, and wants to pick it up again, but keeps being aggroed back to the player over and over
This intro/transformation is so dope it never gets old 8:57… 14:06 is my #2
now I wonder how many axe's Cervul wasted on the crusade?
There's a reason Alcedor starts with 0 gold.
This game looks really cool! I would say kinda brave including Baphomet - youtube tends to NOT appreciate that kind of content ^^;
I'd highly recommend Infernax. I generally do censor things like that to be safe, and I may not be 100% consistent, but I guess I feel the context doesn't warrant it as say the succubi in the ultimate evil ending which generally are more related to sexual content.

Baphomet doesn't count, as we can see in the final scene, it's the Duke who deals the last blow, not the squire.
I like to think he let Alcedor get the last hit. Bro carried the whole adventure.
41 minutes of only bosses? My guy this looks like a boss rush of dark souls
Are those axes Cervul is chucking, or are those actually killer buzzsaws?
They are throwing axes.
@@christopherchasteen4990 They gotta be razor sharp then - I never seen any axe cut through bosses like that.

I wonder if there will be weapon changes someday if you use the name of other Persians
Wow this game looks fun
I highly recommend it, it's very well-done.
When did you get a squire in this game?!
Recent Deux or Die update added him to the game. You can either play as him or Alcedor OR you can co-op with a friend.
Why does Alastor look like a red Ghost Freak?
LMAO Halphas intro look like teletubbies
You can have a squire? How!
The new update lets you play with two players, or a single player that can switch between them.

Game brings nostalgia, which is a gd thing.
What does the flag do?
Increases movement speed, and can be upgraded to increase attack speed and damage.

Ah Nice.
Do you or the enemy have to be in between to take advantage of that or neither?
Ty in advance btw.

Still waiting for Steam sale to buy Infernax reminds me of Castlevania 2 open world
It's 25% off right now on Steam from the new update. There is a Castlevania 2 easter egg in the game.
@@CrankyTemplar 25% Is still high for me I will wait for 90% or 70% sale
Flesh piercing axes
I give this game Va-victus out of Deus Vult!!!
I wonder. For the Abomination 1 fight, is it possible to send the boss away before it kills those knights?
I don't believe so.
Important question because there is no needs to put foddders in harms way.
OP AQUIRE
is this a mod or a dsl ?
It's a free content pack released a little over a week ago.
Infermax 2 player on a differents controls?
I haven't tried doing that but you have the option to play single player with both characters. You can switch between them with a button.
Who do the cross banners do?
Boost movement speed and with upgrades attack speed and damage.

Give the stronger character to your daughter then.
