The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II

If you love VH1 and VH2, you'll love this one. You'll get the usual Torchlight game-play but in a unique, less cartoony setting.
Also, I played this after playing VH Final Cut. It's pretty much the same as VH Final Cut. But honestly I liked playing the individual games rather than play the Final Cut version where they put all 3 games in one. The individual games are self-contained, and have a bit of difference between each game. In the Final Cut version they removed those individual differences from each game to make it more streamlined.
I also played this on my Steam Deck. I had to manually map the controls. But that wasn't that much of a hassle. Steam Deck UI makes it intuitive to setup your own controls.
The only real issue I ran to with the Steam Deck is that there was no voice sound. I looked into it, and people who had this issue on the PC reinstalled DirectX. But I couldn't figure out how to do that on the Steam Deck.
edit: my horrible grammar

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III - A Mixed Bag in the Final Chapter
Graphics: ★★★☆☆
Van Helsing III delivers a gothic-inspired world with a decent level of detail, but it falls short of pushing graphical boundaries. Character designs and environments lack the polish seen in higher-budget titles, and occasional visual glitches can disrupt the overall immersion. While serviceable, the visuals may not leave a lasting impression.
Gameplay: ★★★☆☆
The gameplay retains the series' action RPG roots, offering a blend of hack-and-slash combat and character progression. The diverse skills and abilities at Van Helsing's disposal allow for customization, but the combat can feel repetitive over time. While serviceable, the game doesn't bring significant innovation to the action RPG genre.
Story: ★★☆☆☆
Van Helsing III attempts to wrap up the trilogy with a narrative that, unfortunately, feels lackluster. The story lacks the depth and engagement found in the earlier installments, and character development falls short. The dialogue is often uninspired, and the plot struggles to maintain player interest throughout the game.
Soundtrack: ★★★☆☆
The soundtrack complements the game's atmosphere, providing a suitable backdrop to the gothic setting. While not particularly memorable, the music succeeds in creating a moody ambiance that aligns with the game's tone. The voice acting is serviceable, but it occasionally lacks the emotional nuance needed for a more immersive experience.
Level Design: ★★★☆☆
Van Helsing III features diverse environments, from haunted forests to dark urban landscapes. However, some areas may feel uninspired, and the overall level design lacks the intricate details seen in more polished titles. The game's structure is linear, with limited opportunities for exploration.
Replayability: ★★★☆☆
The inclusion of multiple character classes and difficulty levels adds a degree of replayability. However, the lackluster story and repetitive combat may deter some players from diving back into the adventure. The multiplayer aspect can enhance replayability for those who enjoy cooperative play.
Overall: ★★★☆☆
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III serves as a conclusion to the trilogy but falls short of the expectations set by its predecessors. While the gameplay mechanics remain intact, the uninspired story, lackluster visuals, and a general sense of repetitiveness prevent it from standing out in a genre filled with more compelling options. Fans of the series may find closure, but newcomers may want to start with earlier entries in the Van Helsing saga.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing 3 - This is the second best one in the trilogy if you ask me. In my personal order: 1, 3, 2. Further continuation of what the first 2 built on and it was a great experience playing this in coop again because there was no desyncing (not that it stopped us making backups of our characters to be sure).
This is the final instalment of the game and we as a group of buddies (Eazy, my wife and I) thoroughly enjoyed playing this together and having a bunch of laughs. This game is a lot longer than the previous 2 games, but I enjoyed finishing this trilogy. I just wish that they made more games of these, Neocore put a lot of effort into the smaller details, it really made the game memorable.
Highly recommend this trilogy if you have a couple of friends to play with!

Not much different from VH1 & 2. The isometric view and gameplay is very well done. Visually it looks good and the character designs are great. There's a good amount of ways to play depending on your preferred style. The different character classes are great and the skills are varied. The same goes for your equipment.

The story is still subpar though.

6/10

Ignore the negative reviews, if you enjoyed 1 & 2 this is worth playing.
Once you get past the class system rework and non existent import feature (which really sucks), this is the most polished gameplay wise. I found the areas to be the most fun, and the story and characters to be more interesting than the 2nd game, along with the difficulties being more balanced

Fun game, 1st game i have played for more than a couple hours at a time in a LONG TIME i get bored of games fast but this will be taking days out of my life for sure ., especially for the 4$ sale price originally @ 75$ for the bundle. i would definitely recommend if you like these kind of 3rd person rpg games.

The Van Helsing series is an excellent example of the fact that games with hack-and-slash gameplay can be not just about clicking mobs, but can have an entertaining, albeit simple plot, enjoyable gameplay and, of course, amazing work on visual design and music. Having played this series for the first time back in 2015, I couldn’t get rid of the feeling that the Diablo 3 sellers were somewhere trying to deceive me when they slipped me a soulless mob clicker instead of a game, because Van Helsing stood head and shoulders above this competitor, even though there was not enough time and resources. With this review, I just want to express my sincere gratitude for this series and express the hope that someday we will see a continuation, no worse than the recently released Diablo 4
