Do we still hate Castlevania?

>>723502269 (OP)
Yes we still hate Castlevania, now fuck off nigger.

>we
Begone foul creature, you don't belong on this board!

>>723502269 (OP)
>Still hate
>Castlevania
This is a Castlevania board faggot

>>723503283
I'm getting filtered by the first boss in Portrait of Ruin. This shit controls like absolute ass and I can't handle it. How does SotN that came out before it feel way better to control?

>>723503913
>I'm getting filtered by the first boss in Portrait of Ruin
Literally how
>How does SotN that came out before it feel way better to control?
SOTN is pretty smooth, yeah

>>723502269 (OP)
I like Lords of Shadow 1 because it's a classic God of War clone.

>>723504214
thats NOT Dracula you faggot
This is Dracula

>>723504731
that's the Dark God

>>723504731
What was up with Dracula’s 2nd form, the floaty vomiting heads?

>>723504013
it doesn't, the bosses in SOTN are easy. O steam rolled through the first boss and I dont even remember him

>>723504919
ok fine
THIS is Dracula

im not a fan but your series is badass. i cant hate on it

>>723504731
That's actually Pazuzu, THIS is Dracula

>>723506318
bleh!

>>723502269 (OP)
What if i spelt his name backwards

>>723506506
how... is this... even.... possible....................

Is this Dracula?

>>723502269 (OP)
perhaps the same could be said of all videogames...

>>723502542
He has that seto kaiba eyes.

I just started the first and am having a rough time.

I have finnaly found Dracula's portrait of ruin

>>723506932
Are you upgrading your subweapons? Using knife/axe/holy water/cross on enough candles, enemies, and their projectiles will spawn up to two upgrades.

>>723507189
I should have read the manual. No I've only been using my whip on them.

>>723507652
Yeah, subweapons are a lifesaver in Castlevania games. Guarantee you'll have an easier time if you try to level them up (to III, the max)

>>723508483
I will try this out tomorrow, thanks.

>>723508878
Another tip: the whip's hitbox is larger than it looks and can hurt enemies that are half of Simon's height. For example, I think the panthers on stage 1 get destroyed by it without you needing to crouch.

>>723507189
>upgrading your subweapons
what

WHIIIIIRRRRRRRRR

I tried that Wolf Chronicles game but I didnt like it because it was too much like Castlevania. I dont know if that makes sense. I am okay with inspiration but this is like a carbon copy. Feels like I already played it because its so similar.

>>723506704
Hello this is dracula speaking.

>>723511692
>too much like Castlevania
I love it for that exact reason.

>>723511323
>he doesn't know
It lets you have more than one subweapon projectile on the screen. If you die to Death, you can get a cross and upgrade it and just spam it to delete all his sickles.

>>723511692
Play Odallus.

>>723511078
>the panthers on stage 1 get destroyed by it without you needing to crouch.
what

>>723502542
It's not by my hand that I am once again given threads. I was called here by (you)s who wish to pay me tribute!

>>723507189
nta but thanks. Still gonna get my shit pushed in in the catacombs but it's good to know for later

>>723511725
This is genuinely the best design of Dracula's demon form

>>723512134
You ghost ride the whip to kill the haters.

>>723512432
He needs to come back like this again.

>>723502269 (OP)
Only the Netflix version.

>>723512432
as a kid, I really loved this form because it looked like Soul Reaver Kain

>>723514021
He'd be a cool vania guest villain.

L2 to fly, like in Armored Core for Answer. Pulled to ascend, let out to drop, somewhere around middle neutally boyant in the air.

2D pixel art. Elaborate! None repedative unless better by that. Even brickwork unique each. Look at everything.

Any artist. People, PC, artificial, animal. Paintings of an elephant count. Made better and to suit.

L1 to teleport to the best place to attack. Pressed twice, thrice etc teleports to different enemies stunning them.

Hundreds on screen. "Bullet hell" avoid touching them or hurting them.

R2 weapon. Random which. Changing every 3 seconds.
Whip
Sword
Sheild

Used the timer is restarted. So one sword slash at 2 seconds is 3 more seconds of sword.

Each consecutive weapon hit doubles it's damage. Gameplay in taking on multiple enemies, avoiding some friendly or not necessary to attack. Build multiplier as you make your way to a boss that will need it.

Sword hits close fast, anything close: sword hits what's intended to be hit.
Sheild damages around ignorant of which is damaged. The entirety of the enemy attack is applied and multiplied.
Whip makes a line, what's touched is turned on your side. Multiplied is enemies hit hitting another how ever many the multiplier.

R1 to regain health. When pressed world is heavenly. Nove. (Nice).
Everything is your friend.

Later face people who consider you a monster, and your friends monsters too. With only one form: their prey.

See the town around. What is in trouble defended and rescued. What is desirable delivered life to withstand plague. Preserving their perspective.

Use heal to see what might be friend. But in that state see what isn't as absent.

>>723502269 (OP)
I'm interested in this

>>723502516
Castlevania Nocturne?

>>723502269 (OP)
I don't think anyone here genuinely hates Castlevania, the only ones who claim they do are just faggots who cannot enjoy life.

bleh

>>723512432
>>723511725
The guys who made Dead by Daylight knew it too, because it shows up in the game lol

>>723502269 (OP)
im playing castlevania 3 right now. it's ridiculously hard, but it's fun.
last october i beat bloodlines and sotn. the former and 3 made me realize that rondo (my current favorite) is quite easy for a classicvania. interesting.
are the n64 games any good?

>>723502269 (OP)
are any of the 3D-vanias good?

>>723519278
>are the n64 games any good?
They're kino, but it's like platforming in Shadowman except locked at sub 30 fps, so it can be rough

He is the king, absolute evil, and the most terrifying creature in existence

>>723504731
>"That Zaza got me feeling like Pazuzu! Ya'll can't fuck with me!"

>>723519314
Lords of Shadow 1 is pretty good for what it is, but very bloated. Otherwise no.

>>723519278
>are the n64 games any good?
Well, no. But they're charming and interesting with some of the level theming. They're worth looking up some play footage just to get a sense of them. It's a shame they're shit because there's a lot of good stuff in there. To me they've always felt like betas for a great game that never happened.

Why is Vlad Tepes aka Dracula eternally seething again?

>>723522976
He can't find it in his heart to cope with the true nature of woman
