Damn, knew I should've put "Castlevania" in the subject to start a broader thread. Oh well.
>>720517649That's how it sounds when they have sex too
>>720519558sex sounds like whipping those green pillar membranes in the cave stage of the X68000 game
>>720517649I want to lick Charlotte's hairy, sweaty groin.
>>720517649You don't need to tryhard minmax every game you play, autismo.
>>720520158All tryharding in PoR really is is spamming the shit out of 1000 blades
>>720520158But canceling shit into other shit is fun
>>720520606Indeed. And it takes some awareness to draw your focus since Charlotte's spells are so good and team supers are so strong, you don't want to do it too mindlessly (or "autistically" you could say).
>>720517649For me is RAGING FIRE and GALE FORCE
>>720521493I like Hex or Nightmare sometimes for just barraging them with hits. But what's really fuckin' busted is Spirit of Light. Homes in, hits twice if there's one target--can hit multiple targets otherwise--high damage, long range. Been cheesing the hell out of hard mode with it.
>>720517649
me? I am an honest whip user
You all know Charlotte is 16, right?
>>720524092you guys really need to stop getting lost on alexa rankingsits a fictional character
>>720524092I know, it's great. Prime of her life.
>>720517649This is where Castlevania peaked, anything after this, it went to kuso.
>>72052409216 in 1944 is the same as 24 in the current year.
PoR was the firsy castlevania I played and I 100% it
jonathan was fun to play in harmony of despair. flying knees and uppercuts all day
>>720526504Too bad he was the worst one by far to level up due to that game's absolutely retarded way of making characters stronger. If you didn't have the ability to mod your saves to max out the EXP level of all your weapons or have somebody to help you abuse the 2P versus mode exploit you were in for pure hell as trying to level the whip users normally was a terrible slog(ra).
>>720524359Made for BMC (Big Minotaur Cock).
>>720526680>everyone has the fucking worst grind ever to get stronger>Charlotte doesn't, BUT requires absorbing enemy attacks meaning you can't play online with her at all to get her stronger>Soma gets all the trophies just for existing
>>720525724Ooe was pretty fun bro
>>720527310>all of shanoa's melee "weapons" are late game/dlcFucking bullshit I tell you
>>720527867That Shanoa needs DLC to be even remotely good while the DLC pumps everyone to amazing is really sad for the poor girl. She'd cry, if she had any emotions.
>>720527310Charlotte's grind is unique, but still a chore. Especially some spells like Heal. I tried maxing out Charlotte on my own, and at ~16 hours all I have left is one of Dracula's attacks that refuses to drop. I stopped tryingShe also doesn't have a divekick, so she can't take a lot of the shortcuts and falls behind as a result
>>720519735Jesus fucking christ
>>720526504I played it a little with /v/ a few years ago, but never got into it. Didn't help that everyone I played with was max levelWent with Charlotte because she is best girl
>>720525724Castlevania peaked in the 90s, as so many things do.
>>720520158>NOOOOOOOOOO YOU HAVE BE LE HECKIN SHIT AT CASTLEVANIA LIKE ME!!!! AUTIST>*Silksong rage thread pops up*>hehe GIT GUDSilkthong shitters EXPOSED for getting destroyed by a game with far higher APM. First filtered by a Castlevania divekick, now the backdash LMAOOOOOOOOIGA >>>>>>>>>>> Team Cherry
>>720525724The only thing after it was OoE, which was fantastic
>>720530426TRVKE
Is hard mode meant for ng+ ? I just started on a fresh save and it took like 10 hits to kill an axe armor.
I like this game the most out of the three but I have nothing to say about it. I'm sorry.I guess I like Charlotte more. Charged spells are fun.
>>720532490Thats normal, be happy you can lv up. Lv 1 dullahan would make Silk thong twinks fill their diapers
>>720528551At least she got something. Yoko and Maria didn't get any new spells at all and Yoko also got the 'no jump kick' penalty as well to go with it.
I honestly think I prefer Dawn of Sorrow to Portrait of Ruin. That seems to be an uncommon opinion though.
>>720532836Yeah uh...literally why?
>>720532885Better bosses and the map is better.
>>720532938>better bosseshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEUABhp4HFA
>>720532885The character switching gimmick doesn't appeal to me at all, and to the extent that it does Julius Mode in DoS is more so.I also just think Dawn of Sorrow has better level design. I like Portrait of Ruin (and some of the paintings give an atmosphere that would be impossible to reproduce in the castle even with Castlevania's nonsensical architecture, like the spooky academy) but too often it uses its paintings as an excuse to be lazy.
HOLYLIGHTNING
>>720530426This is supreme cope, I love igavanias but they're turn your brain off and chill type games. The mastery of a multitude of complex mechanics demanded by even base hollow knight is leagues ahead of anything out of the castlevania series, let alone silksong.
>>720533434t. watching a longplay counts as playing the game
>>720533434Say this shit after lv 1 hard mode. That mode shits all over Silkthong. And lv 1 hard old axe armor? Easily the hardest thing in the genre, BTFOs Gaydiant boss rush
I don't like the GBA/DS castlevania games.
>>720534747Nobody likes you so it evens out.
>>720534657You need self imposed challenge runs only attainable after beating the game to compete with base HK/SS, even then it's entirely rote memorization of easily abusable AI. They're simply not comparable.
>>720535437No shit, captain obvious. Why do you think I post here?
Look at 'er go
>>720536585I cum
>>720520604>All tryharding in PoR really is is spamming the shit out of 1000 bladesif you play with the setting where you can't level up you don't really have the max mp to get away with this for most of the game
