Castlemania 64 is cool
ok james
>>723498886That bald idiot is why no one has bothered to give these great games a chance
and im castleKINO!!!!!!!!!BAMBINO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>723499740if you say so mike.I did gave them a chance, which is why i know they fucking suck.
>>723498512>>723500015I've seen this thread before. Now's when I ask "which one" and some anon replies with picrel
>>723498512which one?
Okay fucking fine I'll play it. What's the best way to play this game?
>>723500016 Watching retards play games on youtube doesn't count as playing games, as much as you retarded faggot zoomer cry that it does.>>723498512Also i like LoD more, but i'm giving 64 another honest try after almost 3 decades this week.
>>723501151>furfaggot zoomoid having shit taste projectingwhat a combination
>>723498512For me 64 has the best visuals, aesthetics, levels and music. I wish they kept that stuff and improved the gameplay going forward.
>>723500015Genuine kino, downloading now
I love Carrie.
>>723500952Play Carrie and get to Villa. Fight a vampire close to midnight, allow it to molest her, let the corruption seep into her body, turn her into a monster then quit playing.
>>723498512Watching the little girl succumb to vampirism really turned me on.OMG Yes I knew I wouldn't be the only one fixated on this.
>>723502497>then quit playing>he doesn't know about the bad ending where Malus marries her and turns her into his personal vampire slootYou faggot poser.
We had a good thread about it the other day. I said in it that LoD removed the voiced lines from Carrie and Reinhardt stories. But then I checked out the original and there's like 2 or 3 times they have voiced lines in 64, it's not the whole story. Regardless, I wonder if romhackers could add it back to LoD
>>723502050Hopefully the next Castlevania add more little girls like Maria and Carrie.Who am I kidding, there will never be another Castlevania that isn't a rehash, pachinko or collab,
>>723498512>Garden suddenly goes dark>3 werewolves appear out of nowheregenuine jump scare for such a old game.

>>723503813Never forget that LoD goes out of its way to add an extra skeleton biker near the very end of the last nitro run.

>>723507159Attractive little girls should stop flashing virile adult men, tourist.
>>723503813I can hear all the sounds in this webm and the lead up to it in my head, the sound design in this game was amazing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONqmaMyNw9k

>>723498512Cocksure of such opinion
>>723511098
I'm having a mania at the castle
>>723505923I never had a problem with the biker skellies until LoD.Lukewarm take: LoD is not the "definitive" version of CV64, but rather a "too much" expansion, and the final boss, while having a way cooler design than the Final Fantasy boss (both human and monster form) of CV64, the fight itself sucks donkey dicks.
>>723499740Shut the fuck up with this. For one, his video doesn't even condemn the games all that bad, he just gives up because he can't figure some shit out. Two, "an eceleb ruined this game's reputation" has never actually happened. Three and lastly, people ALWAYS dumped on these games, their doodoo buttcheeks ass camera and clunky, yes, ""CLUNKY"" controls as it was termed even back then. So sick of these shit-eaters having to let us all know how special they are for eating shit and then having a fucking victim complex about it. PEOPLE ALWAYS SHAT ON CV64.
>>723503813
>>723511994>Three and lastly, people ALWAYS dumped on these games, their doodoo buttcheeks ass camera and clunky, yes, ""CLUNKY"" controls as it was termed even back then.It got 80+% everywhere you dumb fucking zoomer retard, also everything else you said was wrong.
>>723511994Fucking retard Literally no one plays castlevania 2 specifically because of avgn
>>723512131Fuck off with your marketing bubble semantics. If you were actually alive, and had friends, you'd know nobody gave a flying fuck about these games. >>723512131The game with an infamously terrible translation that makes it borderline impossible to figure out without a guide? Always derided, dipshit.
>>723512629>so irritated I misquoted the same post twicewew. Meant for >>723512434 the second time.
>>723512629>If you were actually alive, and had friends, you'd know nobody gave a flying fuck about these games.I played it on release, now you can go NO U someone else, larping zoomer retard FUCK
>>723512803Good for you! I did too. I don't think the games are as bad as they're made out but the point is they ARE made out bad, and always have been, and playing revisionist doesn't change that. Games had a bad reputation before James came along. Cry about it.
>>723511994>"an eceleb ruined this game's reputation" has never actually happened.Sure, buddy. And when an extremely popular and completely inaccurate video gets released about a videogame and years later people are still parroting those same exact talking points as if they're objective facts? That's a coincidence, every single one of them came to the exact same wrong conclusion as each other on their own.
>>723512874>Games had a bad reputation before James came alongNo it didn't, though admittedly that was because everyone had forgotten about in by virtue of it being on the N64 and SOTN stealing any thunder it could have had.And I actually replayed it not too long ago, and while it has the typical early 3D jank it's certainly not as bad as people like you make it out to be.
Love Carrie's white dress in 64 the fact she doesnt have it in Legacy makes the game S-H-I-T.
>>723513572It was pink though, but something else was white....
>>723513780wth I was sure it was white.
>>723511994>PEOPLE ALWAYS SHAT ON CV64.It was well received on all game magazines during it's release. Back in the day when those magazines where still made by people who played games.
>>723511492This is true. The best way to play is to play Reinhardt and Carrie in CV64, and then play Cornell in Legacy of Darkness.
>>723511994You're talking to /vr/ schizos who have the absolute worst tastes in CV. According to /vr/ CV3 and Rondo are the only good 2D ones, CV4 is too easy because you can whip at an angle and get up steps easily, Symphony of the Night and all Igavanias are shit, and CV64 is not only good but also better than Legacy of Darkness. Sometimes they bleed out of /vr/ and onto, but usually their hatred of igavanias keeps them out of /v/ threads since /v/ mainly talks about the igavania games.
>>723513047the only way this type of disinfo could affect you in any way is when it spawns a dogshit subgenre with 0 good games like "boomer shooters"
CV64 is heavily inspired by Tomb Raider's game design, but it is much, much worse. Worse controls, camera, level design, etc. I am still very found of the game because of its great atmosphere, but it is absolutely not a great game.
This game runs like shit on project 64 any way to make it 60 fps and cool fraphigs ?
>>723514942Use a better emulator
>>723514942>project 64>in almost 2026Learn to Retroarch and use Mupen, dude

>>723498512Yeah it's 3D and thus better than symphony of the night which was lame and 2D.

Just finished my true ending run of Reindhart, Good ass game, definitely overblown on it's problems, but i did play with save states.Gonna do a Carrie run tomorrow then finish up LoD
>>723502050How old is Carrie supposed to be?
>>723511994>an eceleb ruined this game's reputationbanjo nuts and bolts is actually good
>>723500015>Has her tortured vampiric soul redeemed through Reinhardt's faithful prayer of intercession to the lord Jesus Christthis is as kino as it gets
Theres actually a lot of random soulful kino in the old 3d Castlevania games. https://youtu.be/5QU8TPu30Uk?t=499
>>723519112Oh it absolutely is, but it's got extremely poor release timing and was absolutely not what people wanted.
>>723502497Vampirc sexoooooooo.>>723503118Corruption and turning little girls into monsters (not only womb tatoos or bullshit like that) is a top tier fetish. Check also interview with a vampire for more lolis turned into vamps.
>>72351839512
>>723519465The "vibe" of the 64/PS2 games are great. They nailed it on story, characters, etc. It's in the gameplay that their flaws lies, but even so, I'll take that instead of the "good" gameplay from Lords of Shadows with lame Castlevania throwbacks that didn't work.
>>723520521Same age as Ciel

>>723524890Well, he can remarried two more and four (novel)
>>723498512I want another game with someone like Cornell as a protagonist. A kung fu werewolf is such a cool idea.
>>723526000How you go from this... to THIS??
>>723527457That's far from the actual bad designs from that game.
>>723527638>>723527457It's shit and yet it's still one of the better designs.
>>723527638>>723527759Best one was Shanoa's. She was brand new so they couldn't change her, just gave her a chuch inspired alternate outfit.
I enjoyed fighting the first vampire than dracula, the first one was actually more menacing
>>723528000Yeah, meanwhile everyone else got kinda butchered.
>BOOBIES LOL XDDD
>>723498512Carrie is great really. talks like a little badass
>>723500015cringe and selflessness pilled
>>723500015I will now play your game.
>>723528565Game had a lot of bad things, Maria being obssessed by grown up boobs like the loli anime girl she is isn't one unless you were one of those from neogaf when the game came out.
>>723529241Her personality in Judgment is completely off the wall and makes zero sense that this is the same girl from Symphony of the Night or even Rondo.Judgment was a whole mess of bad ideas.
>>723529504>makes zero sense that this is the same girl from Symphony of the NightIt wasn't, if anything it was SOTN that changed her personality because she grew up.>or even RondoShe was a genki loli parody character in Rondo. Talking like an anime trope in Judgment, where she's slightly, isn't that far from what she originally was.
>>723528565>>723529241It's also funny because she was an oppai loli in Rondo.
>>723531281Same tribe?

>>723534201Welcome to every werewolf character ever.
I Beat Reinhardt 64 today, i want to do Carrie and then Cornell LoD tomorrow. What should i move onto next? The ones i have not played are Rondo of Blood, but i have trouble emulating that, Sotn, and the ps2 game
>>723498512It's a good game and I'm tired of pretending it's not.
>>723535120Yeah, for some reason vampires get tons of good vidya but never werewolves.
>>723511994TRUTH NUKE
>>723535120you just need a sys card 3 file to emulate pc engine, use mednafen.rondo of blood is worth playing and the prequel to SOTN which directly picks up where rondo ends so you may as well try it.
>>723511283stealing this, thanks
This is her design peak.
>>723537221true
>>723528747Yeah she had that attitude of a woman scorned. Hell hath no fury and such.
>>723540347carrie just doesn't bother with anyone's nonsense
>>723539009>>723537221Should have stayed an oppai loli.
>>723542479they changed her design so much. but her original is still best

>>723498512Alright /v/ I feel convinced to play castlevania 64 again because of these threads and Halloween. Finished the og millions of times as a kid but barely touched LoD. Can I skip out on playing Cornell in that version or is he part of the experience
>>723551491kill yourself faggot nigger lover man made bitch you probably were raised by a single mom you fucking waste of oxygen.

>>723560269I remember it.
Playing Shadowman Remastered for Halloween month, and I really want to talk about it. I played the N64 version way back when it first came out, and it's one of my favorite horror games. This game was fairly popular on /v/ many years ago, but I never see it mentioned anymore. The remaster is pretty well done, I like how they re added cut content back to the serial killer levels.What was your favorite level? How did this game have so much soul? Why did the second game completely fail to recapture that soul? Do you think the upcoming shadowman game will be any good? Also, has anyone read the comic it's based on? I heard it's nothing like the game.
>>723560761So why Shadowman 2 stuck on PS2 instead multiplatform 6th gen?
>>723556179You have unlock everyone with Cornell
>>723560761Played it last year. Didn't like the lack of a map and never managed to find all the cadeaux.I can't say I have a favorite level, but the music in the "Playrooms" level actually gives me the heebie jeebies.
>>723512070
>>723563192Motorcycle first appears in 1885…considered Dracula have clock tower-like mechanical gear.
>>723563192I think I read a theory that C64 was originally going to take place around one of the World Wars and that's why there's skeletons on motorbikes.
>>723564641Imagine Konami make Castevania games taken place during Texas revolution, Crimea war, and the war of yankee aggressors?
If any of you had played the game, you'd know it's set in 1852
>>723551491no. just no
>Nitro part>Can't attack, can't jump, can't crouch or you explode or die and have to start over.Dauntless and unafraid game design
>>723568121you can attack though. >>723518296This anon here, I started my carrie run and im already past the sewers in just 45 minutes, ill probably knock out the game in the next two hours. Crazy how much easier a second run is.Also
>>723564641I think that makes sense, given one of Renon's quotes in this game.
>>723563192i love these guys
>>723567330Why?
I'm a 30 year old man and there is still no 1999 game. Where did it all go so wrong
>>723568964I always understood it as some kind of future tell
>>723569690It wouldn't have been good even if Konami had let Iga make it after OoE. They were already cutting their budgets considering Portrait and Ecclesia were basically half reused maps. The best time for a 1999 game would have been as the first DS game right after Aria.
>>723569690best to accept it's just not happening
holy hydrogen bomb!
I wouldn't mind working in Castlevania for a living.
>>723569690As long as no Belmonts or associates stroll by.
>>723573093drac can always use more wall meat cooks
>>723569690If they made a 1999 game but it played just like the handhelds I think it'd be a waste. They'd have to really pull out all the stops like a new 3D game and this time really make it good. If not might as well leave the events of 1999 with some mystery.

Doesn't everyone hate Castlevania 64
reading some old articles about castlevania 64 is pretty interesting
>>723596146E-celeb fake news
>>723596545
Is Castlevania 64 better than Chameleon Twist or Starring Goemon?
>>723595563>>723596007"Ash Williams as a Frankenstein monster" feels like the kind of thing that should show up in a game someday. Maybe as an old friend of Julius in the Sorrow era, or the star of his own game set somewhere in the timeline.
Isn't there like a 4 hour retrospective to watch
>>723574014>>723570987>>723571134>>723573791The guys who made Pandora's Tower should do it.
>>723596970Not sure
>>723596970they are very different games.goemon deserves a play too though
You just can't beat Ocarina in that age, to the point where it's almost not even worth playing other adventure games of that era.
I hated that Legacy locked the OG paths behind two other modes. Also that it removed the unique areas from either of the original characters.
>>723601457yeah. people tend to say to just play legacy but it did remove some stuff from 64
As of 2025 these are my top 3 Castlemanias>Dawn of Sorrow>Portrait of Ruin>Lament of InnocenceBut there are so many good games it's hard to narrow it to just 3. Bloodlines is also sick.
would it have been better for the series if the focus of castlevania stayed on the 3d games instead of the 2d ones?
A shame C64 never was a fully realized game, given it cut half of the characters out.
>>723590443They blew it with Amazon only
>>723604301it's a shame. still. it makes it an interesting game too learn more of at least

>>723602173To be fair, C64 was far more moody and realized experience, compared to SotN which was more upbeat with its music/themed areas.
>>723605001that's cool as hell
>>723605001didn't know this existed

>>723609303I'm not sure what I like more, the end or the monster baby getting gibbed unceremoniously partway through
This was very embarrassing they didn't know which button for the standard attack was, for four whole episodes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dfa99nMWZJE
Lecarde Chronicles 2 is pretty cool. More of the same from Chronicles of the Wolf. I'm a little torn on the greater relative challenge; while nice on its own, some of it seems extended from movement as a whole being more inhibited. The newer game just feels overall a lot smoother.

>>723503267Canon ending you mean
>>723519195This is true
>>723568964That and the literal Zeppelin in the Castle center.
>>723569690The cloeest you are getting is a fan game that is still being worked onhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19bYGamq3Dk&t=15s
>>723573093Imagine how awful it would smell though. So many rotting corpses and monsters who probably just shit anywhere. Being Persephone is endless suffering, why would you want that for yourself?
>>723616508It must suck being one of the anime girl maids that Dracula keeps around to always clean his carpets.
>>723616725worth it to expose charlotte’s panties
>>723616361>Is still being worked on Doubt
>>723617925>last updated 9 months agoyou might be right about that ouch
>>723618274Speaking of Castlevania like games that will probably never see the light of day. Brave Earthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObAHZ-0Yjt4
>>723618413>Probably >12 years agohttps://youtu.be/-uOER3K4alE?si=t4GJb1lz0F4qnYojIs definitely dead. Shame because it looked good.
Played this game again last night and, yes, it still holds up. I am playing through hard mode tonight, then I will play Legacy of Darkness after that. My current opinion (I have played LoD a few times, but not in the last few years) is that LoD is the inferior way to play the game, the controls are a downgrade and the stages it changes/adds do not improve on the base game with the exception of the clock tower. But I am open to changing my mind if the experience is different this time.
>>723618642Every year the creator keeps saying he is working on it.
>>723498512It honestly is one of the better ones once you get used to the controls. Good atmosphere, good length, decent characters (Carrie a cute 10/10) and good replayability. I think it's better than the enhanced version with the wolfman. he was boring af to play as, and they nerfed the other characters' levels too.
I have to confess. . . I have started to like the filtered blurry textures of the N64 more than the jaggy ones of the PS1 recently.

>>723596146Only retards who parrots eceleb opinions and people with a hateboner for the N64
How is this thread still alive kek
>>723620957The power of corruption
>>723622819He's the son of that one and the little boy Cornell helpsI personally enjoyed Henry's levels; imo they're the one thing that makes me want to replay LoD, because at least for the main story, I prefer CV64; it's just more "compact", so to say.
>>723623213>and why does did Death abduct girls?They don't call him the Cunny Reaper for nothing.Nonwithstanding fucking DEATH working for Dracula in the first place
>>723619964that early 3d
>>723618814I got filtered by LoD dungeon / ruin level.shit is so annoying.the controls are way better for LoD though and the upgrade-ability of items is good.castlevania 64 is a fucking slog to get through since you do so little damage but cornell just two taps every boss, it's sick.
>>723620957it's near halloween so castlevania has it's arbitrary "castlevania time" playthroughs by anons.
>>723618814>LoD is the inferior way to play the game, the controls are a downgrade and the stages it changes/adds do not improve on the base game with the exception of the clock tower.I agree wholeheartedly as someone who played the 64 games for the first time recently. LoD is a pointless expansion and Cornell's campaign isn't worth depriving yourself of Reinhardt/Carrie areas. He doesn't even have a unique story or his own cutscenes.
>>723624902The art tower is also ridiculously shit and the new Tower of Execution is just a straight line with no challenge.
>>723625234The sinking old Sanctuary is one of my favourite castlevania song's so hearing a remix of it in the art tower made it bearable.it wasn't a fun level but the love for bloodlines OST redeemed it enough for me.
>>723533336>https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/7950/Thanks anon, the camera is the worst thing about the game by far.
>>723625674Worst thing about C64 for me is just how precise your angle has to be for being able to grab ledges.
>>723625934I got used to that pretty quickly, what I've never been able to get used to however is the godawful camera angles that the game forces on you pretty much constantly, there are jumps in the game that are only difficult thanks to the camera not actually showing you what you need to see
>>723625934The Duel Tower is the worst for this. Sometimes you just drop to your death rather than grab the ledge.
>>723626117 They used a lot of old paintings for the Villa. It could have been repurposed for a haunted art gallery or something like that. And painting enemies like in Rondo of Blood.
what would you like to see in a full castlevania 64 remake
>>723626676Nothing, I hate remakes.
>>723626676>More characters>More enemy types>More levels>A control scheme that doesn't suck ass>A working camera>Voice acting akin to the intro
>>723626029I take you know that you can set different camera modes?
>>723500015isn't this just devil may cry
>>723627662Lament of Innocence on PS2 literally was Devil May Castlevania.
>>723620957This is what happens when there isn't much shit posting, and people are genuinely interested in playing a game. You have organic, spaced out discussion.
Any good romhacks?
>>723628020the later 3d castlevania never really feel like castlevania

>>723612183Lecarde Chronicle need port on modern console
>>723621007
>>723630309There's a lot of games that probably would have been expanded on if the 64DD was finished within the first year of release.
>>723629340Lords of Shadow story mog Netflix capeshit writing
>>72363093764DD supposed come out on 1997. Same year while CV64 was in development.
>>723631350Imagine what could have been...
>>723631350never heard of them trying to to use the 64DD though
Hectors game is better
Renon was interesting for a shopkeeper
>>723626676Just the models being updated, and obviously Carrie's panties being fully modeled and visible at any angle haha
>>723632034I always wondered how you were supposed to spend 30k in his shop. Last playthrough I did where I didn't even buy anything and just collected all gold I could I only got up to 26 across the entire playthrough. Like, you had to die and replay parts a lot AND spend all your money to the last penny in order to trigger his fight.
>>723632837they really should have set the amount much lower at least
Behold the retardation of the gaijin vandals that raped the franchise:https://x.com/SamuelDeats/status/1979605420030173281
>>723631105Lords of Shadow has details in its story that simply bother me like....Cornell is evil.Victor the final Belmont chooses to die trusting Dracula his lifelong enemy on a whim without leaving an heir.Dracula kills Satan using a literal worthless damaged Non Divine weapon (the shattered combat cross).Trevor is also Alucard.The ending has Dracula/Gabriel breaking his promise to his wife to return to her after finishing his battle with Satan.And it piles up. The story had the makings of something good but it really gets too many little things wrong and it becomes bothersome. Real shame because certain things I liked, like how Death did not serve Dracula because that has never made any sense at all.
>>723632034Sounds like Renon works for the demon Mammon since he literally mentions about making contracts with Satan. If Renon worships gold and currency then his boss is Mammon/Greed. Renon is honestly the best merchant character in the franchise. Never liked Rinaldo as a shopkeep and the others? Meh.Wish that unlocking his boss fight was actually more punitive because he's such an easy boss fight.
>>723626676Something I truly want out of a remake is a duo campaign that is Reinhardt actually interacting with Carrie. We know Reinhardt is a softie who has reservations about fighting women and children, that is he will do it when forced. But Carrie is not like that. You can get a lot with these two interacting with Carrie telling Reinhardt to toughen up already.
>>723635035>Trevor is also AlucardWhich is cool. We need Nathan, Sonia and Juste LoS games.
>>723633420Or made the game much more difficult while raising item prices so that you were castigated with the Renon boss fight. Because that's the thing about this game its honestly notably easy. Even Dracula if you know what you're doing and your weapon is powered up you can beat him in less than a minute.
>>723635382>SoniaThought I was the only one who liked Sonia Belmont and its a real shame this franchise has done TWO multiverse games and she's never been utilized. Doubly shameful because she uses radically different subweapons so that means that she could play different by default.
>>723631461So much potential.
>>723633420This line always made me laugh. Renon's wares has him selling healing items essentially. So how would war benefit him? His items stop death from occurring. In a weird way the other shopkeeps of Castlevania are more "evil" since they sell damaging tools of killing.
>>723635183>>723635417with it being an early 3D game. i think they held back in difficulty
>>723635683Why are you assuming that he would keep selling healing items?And why are you assuming that it is death that is benefitting him? He is after souls, not corpses. And for a demon it really doesn't matter if someone dies now or in 60 years, but now imagine millions of dudes selling their souls for gauze.You never thought this through, anon, did you?
>>723511994Truth nuke. People shut on this game for years because it's actually not great.
>>723635758That makes sense because even early 3D Legend of Zelda games were also way too easy. Come to think of it 3D combat mechanics didn't start getting more challenging until the PS2 era.
>>723635683>Renon's wares has him selling healing items essentially. So how would war benefit him?Healthcare is the most valuable business in the world during war, nobody wants to die, everyone will pay whatever he wants to get their hands on medicine and medical care. He can make deals with entire governments for hideous amounts of money to supply them with the goods they need to keep soldiers alive.
>>723635818Just trying to inject discussion to keep this thread alive. This thread is a relief from the typical trash by this board.
>>723636032I think this thread doesn't need that, it's doing fine by itself
>>723635954they really feared people wouldn't understand the 3D gameplay
>>723636194tbf I can vividly remember the first time I ever play SM64 at one of those display consoles at the store; my Mario was running around like he had drunk a bottle of vodka
>>723635035Only thing that bothers me in LoS is in 2 and it's not being able to kill the Golems and being forced to stealth around these faggots.
this is kinda ass so far. maybe i should have played 64 first
>>723637276In Quake 4, you definitely need it.
>>723637374I still have fond nostalgia for this game even though I've never been able to stick with replaying it.
>>723637801the visuals and soundtrack are great, so i can see why you would, but the first few hours have just been punching bag enemies and empty hallways. also a copious amount of asset copy pasting.
>>723503813>LETS BONE HER, BOYS!
>>723637801Me too, I remember the game like I had played it just yesterday but I only beat it once and will never play it again in my life.
>>723499740I bothered when it came out, it was so shit i didn't even make it to the part with the nitroglicerin i just threw that shit away and started a fresh Rogue Squadron run.
>>723639372Chinga tu madre, idiota
Cosmos still has the top speedrun of this game.
That's a child
>>723639452Sorry, i don't speak brown.
>>723639647>nitroglicerinYou can't fool anyone, pepe
I swear I cant make this game look good on retroarch. aaaaaaaaaaaa someone teach me good configs am potato.OoOoO
>>723639554Of what?!
>>723639928It looks fine for me but I'm having trouble deciding which CRT shader to use.
>>723639647t. mutts hand
>>723639928Define "look good"
