POLL: To those who played the Switch version, how is it?

It really pains me to say it, after years of waiting and anticipation:

So many issues it was almost unplayable.

This might be interesting. This is the result of this same poll on the GameFAQs Bloodstained Switch board. The results are very hopeful for those who haven't played the Switch version yet:

I'm enjoying the Switch version. There are several problems with it, and yes, it does affect playability, but I haven't found myself blaming any of my deaths on the input lag or poor performance. So for me, it doesn't keep it from being fun.

Its an unplayable mess, The input lag alone to me makes it unplayable. Then there are the crashes and then load times as well as the dips down to 10 FPS when there are more enemies on screen.

You can complete it, but its still no fun. Its like you are playing the game underwater.

There are all the bugs, but on top of that you have visuals that look like a 3ds game. No excuse for the poor quality muddy mess.

The switch version is like playing underwater. From the Input lag being 3 times worse then any other version. Coupled with 30 FPS that dips down to 10 FPS in some areas and boss fights. To the constant crashing some get. And then the blurry visuals to really make it feel like your looking through the haze of water.

Context, i decided to back the game n switch, but i always think on also buying it on steam, cause i thought that portability was neat! but i also wanted mods and good graphics, so i always knew would end with both versions.

still, due to me being away from home the weeks it come out (carrying my switch) and then falling ill, my first playtrough was on handheld switch, (after a while i ended disabling rumble, cause THAT bug was annoyng), but i managed to do a 99% run on handheld switch.

IT is the worst version of the game, and It is more enjoyable to play on the pc. BUT to say that the switch version is an unplayable trainwreck is just an exaggeration. I still was able to beat the final boss without a single crash.

regarding stuff that was made less enjoyable...

-I think that the bosses are the most impacted by this, since it's harder to react to their patterns, and i ended wanting to just cheese them (which is still perfectly possible, so isn't game breaking, but bosses are less enjoyable)
-the graphical downgrades kinda make less enjoyable some areas that are a little duller, like the caves and all its reskins (Ice, fire, etc). castle entrance, gardens, cathedral etc... while still looking worse they were still very enjoyable because the elements while worse quality, still were arranged in interesting ways.
-Sole exception may be library area where the load times become an actual problem, but in the other areas it was fine.
-Frame drops were usually seldom and not supper common,so werent a problem neither (but they were noticeable)

I’m slightly disappointed with the Switch version. I play in hand-held mode & it keeps slowing down, black screens when jumping between floors - mainly jumping up, slow button reactions & I even defeated the dragon by crouching underneath & striking it without taking damage.

It really does pain me to say this but .. I've got no intention of buying Bloodstained My fire has gone out. I'm on auto-pilot in a despondent kinda way! Just reading about all the bugs, issues and problems over the months leaves the impression of what it must feel like to wake up after a botched operation.

I'll be hanging in the shadows...

Still waiting for them to DO something with the Switch Version...
